Product Dimensions: 7.5 x 15.8 x 1.5 inches ; 1.6 pounds Shipping Weight: 1.7 pounds ASIN: B00004TFZV USAopoly, ISBN: 700304030047 Editorial Review If, after winning a hotly contested round of Scrabble: Golf Edition, you feel a sudden urge to pick up a letter tile and toss it into the gallery, that'd probably suit the folks at USAopoly just fine. They've fashioned a version of the classic crossword game that retains its traditional rules and equipment but has been dressed up a bit for the golf enthusiast. It's a game where "selecting the correct wood" refers to choosing which tiles to put on the grid (colored to look like a putting green) in order to form the highest-scoring words. By taking advantage of the Birdie Letter Score or Eagle Word Score spaces on the board, players attempt to--horrors!--add points to their scorecard. Additional points can be gained by forming words listed in the included golfing glossary of Tee Words (for example, "mulligan" and "buzzard" are good for a 40-point bonus; "pin," "rake" or "ace" net you 20 points). The Scrabble: Golf Edition is the game of adjoining words that gives new meaning to "a day on the links." --Tony Mason From the Manufacturer SCRABBLE, the world's most famous word game, is customized for the golf enthusiast! Players can double and triple letter and word points by strategically using Birdie and Eagle squares on the board. Rack up additional bonus points by playing golf-related words found in the Golf Word List included in the game. Game also includes wooden tiles, golf-themed score cards and a golf pencil.
