FoG .. it's much the same as lawn bowling but no bias in the balls (bias is in # of beer consumed...)

Buddy, it get's a tad competitive .. my youngest at 14 is best - if he gets a lead he keeps it..

Hayward, we're the same .. neighbours are very patient with us, it's gets very loud with all the laughter and shouting the teams on .. I've been cutting the court at the mower's lowest setting.. I'm waiting for 2 straight days of rain, I'm renting a lawn roller believe it or not ... only I will know the pitch of the court for a few games.. LOL

LOL sounds much better than lawn bowling then I get confused when they veer off lol

I had to Google this to find out what its all about....Yeah the red's is kicking you ... now did you just cut that patch out of you lawn to play this??? Great shots btw, the details in the grass and the balls in the second one is amazing!

[teedlepeep]

I do not know a thing about this game, but I really like the color of the balls against the grass hahaha

David, thx for looking and the kind comments .. it's a great family game, everyone can play .. it only gets serious in the "play-offs" (post family bbq) ... and yes it's cut to the quick .. I keep our lawn high and lush to keep those stunning dandelions at bay .. I took the plunge and we cut in the court and have to mow every day or 2, and water the snot out of it.. well worth the effort to have a game my boys call me out to play at ..
