Rat Pucking

"Rat pucking" refers to a game, similar to golf or croquet, played with a stick and a stuffed rat. The goal is to hit the "rat" (a stuffed toy) with the stick and get it into a designated hole or target in the fewest strokes.

Game Mechanics:
Players use a stick to strike a stuffed rat, aiming to propel it towards a target.

Scoring:
The objective is to complete the course (usually a series of holes) with the fewest number of strokes.

Variations:
There are different techniques and styles of "pucking" the rat, with some players even engaging in trick shots.

Historical Context:
While it appears to be a lighthearted activity, the game has roots in a time when rodent control was a serious concern and rat catchers were employed.
