I of course would take a carton of fireworks and fire above the ground and watch the smoke blow. I mean you cant climb up a giant ladder and throw a little dead grass 100 feet off the ground.

I suppose it can get tricky at times, but I think it comes down to being afraid to pull the trigger....that hole has made some of the best players look ridiculous....it's just so damn intimidating to stand on that tee box...I was nervous as hell and other than the 3 other people in my group there was no one around...I can't imagine playing that hole on Sunday afternoon with a shot at making a around a million dollars, if I par it...I would probably hit a small bucket into the drink.
