Key words: mini-golf, hole complexity, ball initial speed, variation of initial speed.
 
The purpose of the present research was to determine the range of possible initial speed imparted to the ball in case of hole in one it and thus determine kinesthetic complexity when playing in some holes, defined by accuracy of realization of player's proprioceptor anticipative ideas to train. Initial speed required for hole in one follows a standard distribution law. So a certain average of initial speed of the ball and range of its permissible deviation (variation) corresponds to the fact of hole-in-one.
 
The averages and standard error of variations of initial speeds required for hole-in-one on the experimental field are within the range of 2-9 and 0,09-0,8 m/s. These values correspond to deviation angles of mathematical pendulum from the vertical of 32 and 48° and accuracy of its deviation of 1,42 and 12,63° correspondingly. Errors in realization of initial speed increase with its value, so the value of errors while imparting required initial speed to the ball increases with the range and effort at club acceleration before a shot.
 
Proceeding from the extrapolation of received correlations of variation of initial speed and its values, minimum variations of initial speed will occur at initial speed, equal to 1–1,5 m/s. This supposition needs an experimental validation.
 
Game results are practically not correlated with values and variations of initial speed, imparted to the ball at shot, since they are stipulated by a numerous other reasons defined by the features and inclinations of playing surface, ball parameters, errors regarding shots, technical errors in playing actions etc.
 
The trend of interaction of variations of results (stability) of game from variations of initial speed was revealed in the study. As proved by the data, the result variation is minimum in case of variations of initial speed in the range from 0,3 to 0,5 m/s.
