>>I've never quite figured out this "golf" game. You hit a teenee weenee little ball with a stick... then you go find the darn ball. You finally find it - and then what? You hit it again! Heck you found it! Put the ball in yer pocket and go home! You won - you found it! Dont hit it again (so you can go find it again).

>I only wish the other shepherds' game became as popular: klis. You have a piece of wood of about four inches, sharpened into a cone on both ends. It lies flat on the ground. The player needs to hit the cone with his stick, so that it jumps into the air, and then hit it again while it flies - and then I don't know what comes next, i.e. what's the next move, where should the piece fly, how do you score etc. But from this much description, I figure the game would be much more physically involving than golf.

So you have to stand around with a sharp point piece of wood flying around? gee that sounds about as safe as that other brilliant sport - lawn darts. (http://www.cpsc.gov/CPSCPUB/PUBS/5053.html)
