Money Golf - A unique hole-in-one golfing challenge that combines skill and excitement

Founded by an unknown entrepreneur, Money Golf operates a kiosk near Lake Topo in New Zealand where participants pay to hit a floating golf tee from 111 yards away, attempting to make a hole-in-one. This game leverages the thrill of competition and the allure of a substantial prize—$10,000 for a successful shot—to attract golfers and casual participants alike.

The business reportedly generates approximately $650,000 annually, with around $240,000 paid out in prize money. They average a hole-in-one every two weeks, contributing to consistent customer interest and engagement.
