  Seems you can't roll across 'cause of the lip at the other end. Going to have to try to bounce it over.

  Camera 2 shows what happened :)

  Bridge over the Suez

  Thanks for this post Scott2mee, I have had great fun. Are there any others that I should be attempting?

  edit: I have been trying to HIO StA #9 with no luck yet.

  You have to have friendly conditions or be able to draw the ball. The direct line is just about over the edge of left side ruff /fescue, so trouble abounds taking that route. With a R->L wind and the right power and spin, it's worth a shot. go for wind push to a landing a few (5 or 10) yards in from the left edge and hope for a sweet roll. Use topspin unless you have a healthy tailwind.

  Having said that someone will post a replay for an innovative route. Maybe over in the double eagle thread.

  I have hit the pin on #9 at STA.

  The key is a right to left wind that is helping as well.

  Anyone notice that using topspin on your drive seems to work much better at STA than it does at RSG.  I know that RSG has more ridges that can stop you but it seems that the ball rolls out much more at STA.

  The end bit of it is solid at least... CLICK.

  But the middle doesn't appear to be solid at all...CLICK.
