Bernard Cohen, 23, recently settled
in Royal Oak, transferring from his
hometown of Buffalo, N.Y., for his
dream job as an engineer in the auto-
motive industry. But one summer
while still a student, strolling the Jersey
shore with his dad — a golfer like
himself — Cohen realized the beach
was dotted with people playing lawn
games. “I immediately drew a circle in
the sand and started chipping,” Cohen
says. That was the beginning of CHIP-
DOWN ($59.99), a user-friendly por-
table golf-inspired game for everyone
— even beginners. Chipdown.com.
