  • Patent number: 4086630
    Abstract: A computer type golf game including a spot image ball simulator, and means for changing a scene display upon a screen on which said spot image ball simulator is projected in accordance with theoretical attained distance achieved with each successive play. The scene display is projected optically from a slide magazine type projector, in which certain slides are disposed in slide retaining recesses in the slide magazine having encoded information corresponding to specific data related to the fairway of an individual hole, whereby when the first slide pertaining to that hole is positioned for projection, this information is transferred to program a computer, whereby attained yardage will activate the progression of slides to projection position. Means is provided whereby slides corresponding to certain fixed increments may be eliminated, in order to keep the total number of slides displaying the entire golf course within the capacity of the slide projector magazine.
