10 Creative Trick Shots Ideas with Black Golf Balls (Plus, Cats!)

Looking for fun and exciting ways to spice up your golf game? If you're into trick shots or viral social media content, black golf balls offer a sleek, edgy twist. And if you have some curious feline companions like we do, the trick shots get even better! Check out these 10 unique trick shot ideas that are sure to make for unforgettable moments—and viral videos!

1. The Catapult & Catch

• Setup: Use a small catapult or ramp in your warehouse. Place the black golf ball at one end, ready to be launched.
• Description: Hit the ball onto the catapult, sending it soaring through the air. Right as it takes off, one of your cats leaps up as if to catch the ball mid-flight, making for the ultimate “cat-catch” moment.

2. The Maze of Boxes

• Setup: Stack cardboard boxes into a maze formation with tunnels and obstacles that the black golf ball has to navigate through.
• Description: Putt the ball through the winding path as your resident cats either curiously observe from the top or paw at the ball as it rolls by. The chaos of boxes falling and the cats’ playful interaction make for a hilarious and unpredictable outcome.

3. The Cat Goalkeeper

• Setup: Set up a small goal post at one end and position your cat as the “goalkeeper.”
• Description: As you hit the black golf ball toward the goal, your cat acts as the goalie, swatting the ball away or knocking it into the goal. The best part? Adding some over-the-top commentary as if your cat is in the finals of a major tournament.

4. The High-Speed Loop

• Setup: Create a loop using a toy racetrack or a paper roll, with a ramp at the end.
• Description: Hit the black golf ball hard enough to make it complete the loop and roll down the ramp. As the ball speeds along, your cats chase it down, pouncing or following the fast-moving ball. Capture the entire chase as your cat adds extra energy to the trick shot.

5. The “Black Hole” Shot

• Setup: Create a black hole-themed target at the end of the course, complete with dark backdrops and a glowing entry point.
• Description: Hit the black golf ball toward the "black hole" as your cat sits nearby, inspecting the mysterious setup. As the ball rolls into the hole, the glowing backdrop enhances the effect, giving it a space-themed vibe. Your cat’s intrigued look as the ball disappears will add extra charm.

6. The Double Bounce Off Cats

• Setup: Set up two ramps that lead toward each other, with your cats lying between the two ramps.
• Description: Hit the black golf ball onto one ramp, letting it bounce off a soft surface between the two cats before continuing its journey. The sight of the ball ricocheting in close quarters with your cats provides endless entertainment, especially when they react unexpectedly.

7. The Trick Putt Through a Cat Tunnel

• Setup: Create an obstacle course using a cat tunnel, leading to a hole or cup.
• Description: Putt the ball into the tunnel while your cats pop their heads out to bat at the ball. The anticipation builds as the ball avoids (or interacts with) your cats’ playful paws. The tunnel amplifies the fun, making for unpredictable moments.

8. The Skateboard Shot

• Setup: Balance a mini skateboard on a ramp, with a target at the end of the ramp.
• Description: Hit the black golf ball onto the skateboard and watch it ride down the ramp. Add one of your cats at the bottom of the ramp, either watching or batting at the skateboard. The combination of the moving ball and a curious cat makes for a viral-worthy trick shot.

9. The Paws and Claws Defender Shot

• Setup: Set up a track with your cats positioned as “defenders” along the course.
• Description: Hit the ball along the track as the cats take turns trying to block it. The unpredictability of whether they’ll stop the ball or let it pass keeps viewers on edge, and the commentary about the “defensive team” makes the shot even more engaging.

10. The Trick Shot From the Cat Tower

• Setup: Place the black golf ball at the top of a tall cat tower, with various objects below as targets.
• Description: Hit the ball from the top of the tower, watching it bounce off objects and head toward a hole or cup below. Your cat perched on the tower will either watch in curiosity or join the fun by batting the ball, adding an unexpected twist to the shot.
