Transform your mini golf course with interactive challenges that create memorable experiences and keep players coming back for more.
Players become more invested in each hole when they have a unique challenge to complete, creating a more engaging experience that keeps them focused and entertained throughout their round.
Random challenges ensure that each visit to your course feels fresh and different, encouraging players to return multiple times to experience new challenges and master different skills.
Challenges push players to try new techniques and approaches, helping them develop their mini golf skills in fun and unexpected ways that traditional play doesn't offer.
Unique challenges create laugh-out-loud moments and memorable experiences that players will share on social media and tell their friends about, driving word-of-mouth marketing.
Challenges level the playing field between experienced and novice players, making family outings more enjoyable for everyone and creating shared experiences that strengthen bonds.
Players love to share videos of themselves attempting unusual challenges, giving your course free exposure on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.
Challenge Spinner taps into fundamental psychological principles that drive engagement and satisfaction:
The Challenge Spinner is a digital wheel that players can spin on their smartphones at the beginning of each hole or game. The spinner randomly selects a challenge based on your configured probabilities.
No physical equipment needed - everything is integrated directly into your PuttScores digital scorecard system!
Design challenges tailored to your course with custom titles, descriptions, colors, and icons. Assign probability weights to control how often each challenge appears.
Players spin the digital wheel at the beginning of each hole or game. The spinner randomly selects a challenge based on your configured probabilities.
Players attempt to complete their challenge while playing the hole, adding an extra layer of fun and difficulty to the game.
One challenge is selected for the entire group at each hole. Everyone works together to complete the same challenge, fostering teamwork and shared experiences.
Each player gets their own unique challenge at each hole. This creates personalized experiences and adds variety to the game, as players can compare their different challenges.
Equip your staff with the knowledge and tools they need to introduce Challenge Spinner to players and enhance their experience.

Pro Tip: Have a staff member demonstrate a challenge to show how fun it can be.
Common question: "What if the challenge is too difficult?" Answer: "You can always spin again once per round, or just skip a challenge if it's not working for you. The goal is to have fun!"
Pro Tip: Reassure players that challenges are designed to be fun, not frustrating.
If players seem hesitant, say: "The challenges add a fun twist to the game and often create the most memorable moments. You might surprise yourself with what you can do!"
Pro Tip: Share a quick story about a previous player who had fun with a particular challenge.
For groups, suggest: "You can all try the same challenge together, or each player can get their own unique challenge. Both options create different but equally fun experiences!"
Pro Tip: For families with young children, recommend the group challenge mode for a more collaborative experience.
