You're looking at it the wrong way, Danny. The question isn't how
quick we can build a golf-club swinging robot...

...it's how quick we can build a zombie-decapitating golf-club wielding robot?

Yes, but the point is to use a golf club. A mower would be too easy.

Of course, a cricket bat would be even cooler....

I think we need CO2 powered cannons to shoot the golf ball down the fairway, once we're on the green, we use pool/billiards sticks.

Sadly I think if we showed up with a lot of contraptions the course employees would turn us away.

However if we built an R2D2 Unit that served as a caddy....
