The Xtreme 19th, on a course in South Africa.

You have to take a helicopter to get to the tee box.

Green is shaped like the continent of Africa.

If you make a hole in one, you pocket a million bucks.

That million-dollar prize ought to just about cover the greens fees.

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

Less than Pebble beach, I believe.
 
You also might want to watch your alcohol intake during the round. Lose your balance on the tee box and it can be curtains.

I've always wanted to hit a golf ball off the side of a mountain. 

That would be fun. There is a Seattle city course which has a tee box set up on a giant hill. The hill is so steep you can't drive carts or walk down the fairway, you have go down a switchback path.

Jackson Park Golf Course, is it's name. I played it once and was rather inebriated and don't remember much of the day.
 
Says you get a DVD of your shot. I'd hate to be the videographer who must stay at the tee box waiting for people to come up.

I have issues with high places on/near cliffs.

For an extra $15, you can have a Swiss man accompany you and yell "Ricola" instead of "fore."

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

I'd be in-between clubs. Probably take a little off a 7-iron.

And the clip I saw had Padraig Harrington hitting driver. Looking at that clip, I can see why.
