| | Adaptive Golf Consider making golf one of your favorite activities; it's very easy to adapt for seated players—just use shorter putters and a ball retriever! See the companies below that sell adapted golf equipment. There are many wheelchairs that will stand a player upright and enable him/her to putt. The ParaGolfer from Ottobock is designed to navigagate golf terrain and enables the player to stand upright and use a normal two-handed swing. You'll of course, consider miniature golf courses because it requires less rolling, but if that gets old, consider borrowing or renting a power chair to play nine holes at a regular course. Or, if you can make the transfers okay, rent a golf cart! Below are two companies that sell adaptive golf equipment. You may also obtain additional information about adapting your sport from the folks at Access to Recreation.
