The Golf Geohash [[Achievements|Achievement]] can be earned for a geohasher by visiting a geohash on the correct day where (a) the coordinates fall upon a golf course and (b) one causes a golf ball to fall at the geohash point. The truly awesome individual will wrangle their way into getting a tee time and visit the location via a well-aimed shot during the course of a played round. In a pinch, though, lumbering into that grove of trees by the eighth fairway and dropping a ball at a likely-looking spot will more than suffice. | The Golf Geohash [[Achievements|Achievement]] can be earned for a geohasher by visiting a geohash on the correct day where (a) the coordinates fall upon a golf course and (b) one causes a golf ball to fall at the geohash point.

The Golf Geohash Achievement can be earned for a geohasher by visiting a geohash on the correct day where (a) the coordinates fall upon a golf course and (b) one causes a golf ball to fall at the geohash point. The truly awesome individual will wrangle their way into getting a tee time and visit the location via a well-aimed shot during the course of a played round. In a pinch, though, lumbering into that grove of trees by the eighth fairway and dropping a ball at a likely-looking spot will more than suffice.
As always, proof should be supplied: your grinning face, something depicting the day's date, and photographic evidence of you being present at the links-worthy locus in question. (Ideal proof will incorporate bemused golfers in the background, looking on at your hijinks, but hey, any port in a storm.)
This doubles as an activity, and also as a great cover story for why you're wandering near the geohash -- "we lost a ball over here!".) Probably some sort of scoring-system should be worked out.
