This makes our Toshiba Classic "Shot from the Top" of the 162-foot Newport Beach Marriott look like hitting the ball off your curb.

Birdscribe, I don't think you know where I live...

You see that red and white place in the back? Yeah...

Actually, it's only $220, and that includes the helicopter ride.

Less than Pebble beach, I believe.

Not even close. I believe Pebble Beach is close to $500 if it's not more than that now.
 
Thought this thread might be about a nude photo spread of Natalie Gulbis. Oh well.
 
Imagine playing it on a windy day.
You could aim 40 yards left or right and possibly hit the green, then get blown off the mountain

You could probably aim 100 yards left or right. I wonder how many people have actually hit the green.
 
If you watch the youtube video in the story, the guy playing with Harrington hit it on the green.

And then three putted for bogey.

The story says it's 630 yards to the pin. How far is it in straight-across terms? You'd probably fly the green with anything more than an iron.

And they ought to install a zip slide. That'd be one helluva ride down.
 
Considering Harrington is using a wood and hit it in the bunker short, I think the average layman will need to go driver, too. But man, what a hole.

Wonder if you get a mulligan? I'm guessing my second shot would be from the drop area. And I'm also guessing the spotter is there all day. Talk about a dangerous job. I hope he wears a helmet.

Useless without a picture.

There are other, less SFW photos available, all of which convince you it's a hole that requires you to pull out the wood and drive-er. ;)

George: Hey

Kramer: (still overexcited) Who wants to have some fun!

Jerry: I do.

George: I do.

Kramer: (once again, overexcited) Are you just sayin' you want to have fun or do you really want to have fun?!

Jerry: I really wanna have some fun.

George: I'm just sayin' I wanna have some fun.

Kramer: Right now there six-hundred Titleists that I got at the driving range in the trunk of my car. Why don't we drive out to Rock-a-Way and hit them-----------(very over excited) into the ocean! Now picture this....we find a nice sweet spot between the dunes, we take out our drivers, we tea up and (he makes a golf stroke), that ball goes sailing up into the sky holds there for a moment and then............ gulp!

George: Come on. Ya wanna go get some lunch?

Jerry: Yeah, let me just stop by the cash machine and I'll meet you at the coffee shop.

George: Yeah, I'm gonna go get a paper.

My picture is better for two distinct reasons.

Let's see those two distinct reasons again, shall we?

One of my favorite Charles Barkley moments was one of his broadcast comments. The show was going off, and Striptease with Demi Moore was next.

"You've got TWO (holds out fingers). Count 'em TWO great reasons to watch this show."

Still one of my all-time favorite TV moments of all time.
 
Or, we could go this route.

I must admit. Those ARE distinguishable terrain features to and from which I could navigate quite well.
