# Wordle for golf

**Wordle for golf** is a short daily everyone shares, then a scorecard without spoilers. PUTTLE is that game with putts instead of letters: five pixel-art mini-golf holes, one course per local date. Play free at [https://puttle.golf](https://puttle.golf/). It is not a word game, and it is not affiliated with Wordle or the New York Times. Golf-themed Wordle clones still hide a five-letter word. PUTTLE does not.

## What “Wordle for golf” means here

Wordle’s rhythm is the point: one puzzle per local calendar day, identical for every player, done in a few minutes, then a grid you can post. PUTTLE copies that ritual and swaps letters for putts. You get five winding pixel-art mini-golf holes instead of a five-letter word. Par is the target, not a hidden word.

People also search **golf Wordle**, **Wordle golf**, and **golf word game**. PUTTLE is the putting version, not a crossword about birdies. There is no typing. You slingshot-putt, bank off rails, and try to finish at or under par.

## Not a golf word game

Golf-themed Wordle clones still hide a five-letter word. Each guess is a stroke on a card. PUTTLE has no typing and no hidden word. You slingshot-putt on a shared park.

## Not NYT Wordle Golf

The New York Times published Wordle Golf as a nine-day or eighteen-day tally of Wordle guess counts, scored like bogeys on a card. PUTTLE does not tally guesses. It is slingshot putting on a shared park.

## Wordle vs PUTTLE

- **Cadence** — both reset at local midnight. Miss a PUTTLE day and a streak freeze can save you once; miss two without a freeze and the streak resets.
- **The shared object** — Wordle shares a word. PUTTLE shares a 5-hole course seeded by the date, so your friend is reading the same dogleg.
- **The skill** — Wordle is vocabulary and pattern. PUTTLE is line and pace: the aim line shows direction only.
- **The share card** — both stay spoiler-free. PUTTLE’s card is strokes versus par (and optional gems), not green squares for letters.
- **Replay** — Wordle is one official word. PUTTLE’s daily is one official card; Practice and “practice this course” do not touch streak or the board.

## How a golf Wordle round plays

Open the site, drag back from the ball like a slingshot, and release to putt. Pull farther for more power. Sink all five holes. Water is a splash (+1, then replay from where you putted). Sand slows, ice glides, slopes curve, rails are for banks. Optional gems never change your score.

## Same ritual, different games

PUTTLE is not NYT Games, not Connections, not a golf-themed Wordle clone with letters. It is not a live match and not a 3D simulator.

It is also not the **Puttle putting mat** — a physical home-practice kit with pins on a strip of turf. That product is unrelated. This PUTTLE is the daily pixel-art mini-golf puzzle at puttle.golf.

It is not **Golfle**, a different daily cave-golf app. Other browser mini-golf dailies exist too: some serve one 3D hole, some three generated levels. PUTTLE is a five-hole pixel-art park tour, the same layout for everyone on that local date. Fair category, not a ranked list — see [games like Wordle](https://puttle.golf/games-like-wordle) for the daily-puzzle contract, and [golf puzzle game](https://puttle.golf/golf-puzzle) for the physics framing.

If you want words, play a word daily. If you want a putt-putt puzzle the whole timeline can argue about, play [today’s PUTTLE](https://puttle.golf/). How the reset and streak work: [daily golf puzzle](https://puttle.golf/daily).
