The modern game, certainly, but I’d be surprised if they had the original idea. A quick wiki suggests it may have been the Dutch who laid the concept.
I’m no historian, but I’d agree with this out of the fact that I live an hour away from Scotland. The Scottish wouldn’t think up hitting a wee ball with a wee stick. Remember, these people literally throw tree trunks (caber toss) and rocks (stone put) for sport.
I do, however, believe they’d have great fun with the idea of smacking a ball really hard through the Highlands.
I like how we call it miniature golf in the U.S. but you Brits outdid us by calling it crazy golf. Which would you rather play, wimpy miniature golf or awesome crazy golf? Because when I think of miniature, I think of tiny houses, but when I think of crazy, I think of Ozzy’s Crazy Train.
I used to think it’s boring. I still do, but not so much ever since I learned it was invented by the Scottish.

Tbf it’d make even more sense if it’s made by Dutch
Yeah, that’s why there’s always a windmill in crazy golf! The other thing that makes it crazy is all that wild elevation change!
