Snake in the Grass is a popular, tactical variation of Golf Croquet, often played in tournaments, where hitting your partner ball on the first shot of a turn earns an extra shot. Originating on Canada’s West Coast in 2015, this game is fast-paced, with standard games often lasting about 45 minutes to seven points.
