Welcome to the Hot Potato '25 Golf and Country Club. The HP-25 is open year round, day and night. It has no hazards or sand traps, and you'll never slice nor hook!

Here are your clubs: Woods (1, 2, and 3); Irons (4 thru 9); Wedge (10); Chip Shot (11); Pitch and run (12).

To begin play on a hole, push the R/S key (stands for Rotten Shot); the display will show you the yards to the green.

Choose your club from the list above, enter the club number and press R/S. If the number shown is positive, you are still in the fairway. If the number is negative, you are on the green.

Once you are on the green, you are shown the number of feet to the hole. Now you'll be using your putter, and must input the STRENGTH of the putt you wish to make (from 1 to 15, with 15 being the hardest putt driving the ball up to 60 feet!).

Once you've entered the strength of the putt you wish to make, press R/S again and watch the ball roll toward the pin...and possibly right past it!. A final distance of 0 means you sank the putt. Tee off on the next hole by pressing R/S again.

The HP-25 does not keep score. You'll have to do that. ;-)

Initial Instructions:
1) Store these contants in these memories: 15 STO 3, 26 STO 4, 40 STO 5, 465 STO 6, 85 STO 7.
2) Set the display to FIX 0.

You can try "Lunar Golf" by changing these registers: Type 3 STO 3, 50 STO 5, and 1500 STO 6 and STO 7. The ball is so lively, it will keep bouncing down the fairway and well over the green!
