The culture surrounding urban golf is everything regular golf's culture should be. Watch this video of the 2011 French Street golf City Pro Tour Championship. This is the video from last year.
There is a super cool French online magazine featuring street golf, played in all kinds of locations including a ski resort.
They have special "semi rigid" golf balls. They have real sponsors, like Grolsch, Lacoste, and Vuarnet (of course). Nike sponsors a streetgolf event in Amsterdam. Just look at the production value in this video.
We are beginning to see what we hope is the future of golf in the form of street/urban golf around the world. My fellow Americans, what are we waiting for?
