The objective of Play Nine, just like in real golf, is to shoot the lowest score and win the match. Each hand is a hole and each turn is a shot, and after nine rounds the player with the lowest score wins. Developed on the 19th hole by two avid golfers, Play Nine is an alternative card game that combines elements from traditional card games, such as Gin-Rummy and Go-Fish, with the actual game of golf. Play Nine, which is designed for two to six players, ages eight and up, is an entertaining and challenging game for friends and family alike, and can even be used as a fun new way to teach children addition and subtraction.
