This is the 20th year for Wisdom, Montana's event...Cow Pasture Open Golf Tournament. Yes, golf in a cow pasture. Many hazards but no one takes this golf game seriously. We just have tons of fun.

Very fun! What a great series of photos telling a wonderful story of the farmer golfers! I'm wondering if you ever get a good lie?
Are there greens? I didn't see any pins or greens.

Greens? Well, some of the grass is green and some of it is shorter than others and some of the 'greens' are sage brush! This golf game is part 'real' golf and miniature golf! Most of the tee offs were on short stubble. :)

Great story and great photos! Glad you said "golf balls" and not "meadow muffins" that you were shooting! Made me smile!
