ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER

     This statement relates to the acquisition by Clark Partners III, L.P., a
New York limited partnership ("Clark"), of 2,625 shares of Golf-Technology
Holding, Inc., an Idaho corporation (the "Issuer"), Series C convertible
preferred stock (the "Preferred Stock), convertible into common stock of the
Issuer, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), initially at $2.25 per
share, and warrants to purchase 262,500 shares of Common Stock with a strike
price of $3.00 per share, which expire December 31, 2002 (the "Warrants"; the
Warrants, together with the Preferred Stock are collectively referred to as the
"Securities"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at
13000 Sawgrass Village Circle, Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida 32082.


ITEM 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

     This statement is being filed by Clark, Ninth Floor Corp. ("Ninth Floor"),
a New York corporation and the sole general partner of Clark, Mr. Kevin S.
Moore, the Vice President and a Director of Ninth Floor, and Mr. Richard
Clarkson, the Treasurer of Ninth Floor.  Clark, Ninth Floor, Mr. Moore and Mr.
Clarkson are sometimes herein referred to collectively as the "Reporting
Persons."

     The principal executive offices of Clark and Ninth Floor are located at 30
Wall Street, Ninth Floor, New York, New York 10005.

     The directors and executive officers of Ninth Floor, are set forth on
Schedule I attached hereto.  Schedule I sets forth the following information
with respect to each such person.

     (i)    name;
     (ii)   business address;
     (iii)  present principal occupation or employment and the name, principal
            business and address of any corporation or other organization in
            which such employment is conducted; and
     (iv)   citizenship.

     During the last five years, neither Clark, Ninth Floor nor any person named
in Schedule I attached hereto has been (a) convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil
proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as
a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final
order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities
subject to, federal or state

securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     The funds to pay the $1,750,000 purchase price for the Securities were
obtained from the working capital of Clark.


ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     The Preferred Stock and the Warrants were acquired for investment purposes.
Subject to the limitations set forth in  the Securities and Exchange Act of
1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, Clark may at any time
determine to dispose of some or all of its holdings of the Preferred Stock,
Warrants, Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted or Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. Any decision by Clark to
dispose of some or all of its holdings of Preferred Stock, Warrants, Common
Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted or Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of the Warrants will depend, however, on numerous factors,
including, without limitation, the price of shares of Common Stock of the
Issuer, the terms and conditions relating to their sale, the prospects and
profitability of the Issuer, other business and investment alternatives of Clark
and general economic and market conditions.

     As an inducement to Clark to purchase the Securities, the Issuer agreed,
among other things, to (i) not issue any debt or equity securities for cash in
public or private capital raising transaction, with certain exceptions, for a
period of six (6) months after January 28, 1997, without prior written consent
of Clark, (ii) grant Clark a right of first refusal to purchase any new debt or
equity securities of any type that the Issuer may propose to sell and issue,
(iii) as long as Clark owns a majority of the 2,625 shares of Preferred Stock:
(a) Clark shall have the discretion to name the President of the Issuer, subject
to the approval of such action by the Board of Directors of the Issuer; (b) the
Issuer agreed to provide Clark with a monthly statement which shall outline
actual financial performance versus budgeted financial performance for the prior
month and on a year to date basis; (c) the Issuer agreed not to incur additional
indebtedness in excess of $250,000, without prior written consent of Clark; (d)
the Issuer agreed not to issue additional shares of convertible preferred stock
or convertible debentures without the prior written consent of Clark; (e) Clark
shall have a qualified right to designate one member to the Board of Directors
of the Issuer; and (f) the Issuer agreed not to pay any cash dividends on its
Common Stock.

     Prior to the acquisition of the Securities, Mr. Moore, the Vice President
of Ninth Floor, held a position on the Board of Directors of the Issuer.
Notwithstanding Mr. Moore's status, Clark has no current intention to influence
or direct the Issuer's affairs, modify its corporate structure or interfere with
the business decisions of its management, although it reserves the right to
change such intentions in the future.

     Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best
knowledge of such persons, any executive officer or director of Clark has any
plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by
any person of additional securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary
corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation involving
the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material
amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the
present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or
proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing
vacancies on the board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or
in dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer's
business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or
instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) a class of securities of
the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be
authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered
national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer
to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4)
of the Securities Exchange of 1934, as amended; or (j) any action similar to any
of those enumerated above. The Reporting Persons may formulate plans or
proposals with respect to one or more of the foregoing in the future.


ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

     (a) Clark is the registered and direct beneficial owner of the Securities,
which are convertible into 1,429,167 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the
"Clark Shares"), representing as of January 28, 1997 approximately 26.09% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.  Clark may also be deemed to
be the indirect beneficial owner of the Moore Shares (as defined below) and the
Clarkson Shares (as defined below), however, Clark disclaims such beneficial
ownership pursuant to Rule 13d-4.

     Ninth Floor may be deemed to be an indirect beneficial owner of the Clark
Shares, the Moore Shares and the Clarkson Shares, however, Ninth Floor disclaims

     The individuals listed on Schedule I may be considered to be indirect
beneficial owners of the Clark Shares by virtue of their status as officers and

listed in schedule I disclaims such beneficial ownership pursuant to Rule 13d-4.

     (b) Clark holds sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the Clark
Shares by virtue of its direct ownership of such shares.  Clark may be
considered to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the Moore
Shares and the Clarkson Shares by virtue of its relationship with Messrs. Clark
and Clarkson.

     Ninth Floor may be considered to have shared voting and dispositive power
with respect to the Clark Shares, the Moore Shares and the Clarkson Shares by
virtue of its status as the sole general partner of Clark and its relationship
with Messrs. Clark and Clarkson.

     Mr. Moore holds sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the Moore
Shares by virtue of his direct ownership of such shares. Mr. Clarkson holds sole
voting and dispositive power with respect to the Clarkson Shares by virtue of
his direct ownership of such shares.

     The individuals listed on Schedule I, including Messrs. Moore and Clarkson,

such shares by virtue of their status as officers and directors of Ninth Floor,
the sole general partner of Clark.
