Impressive that he was finally able to hit one, but not nearly as much fun as the golf/shooting sports game I've proposed for 20 years or so: The golfer tees up. Sixty yards down the fairway, the shotgunner, from a caged stand at the side of the fairway, tries to blow the ball out of the air. Hitting the ball out of the air is scored as a hole-in-one for the shooter.
If he misses, as is likely, he can move to a benchrest position, and with a .224 to .244 caliber cartridge (limited to 95 grains @ under 3000 fps), attempt to blast the ball from the fairway or green.
If the ball is in the rough, or beyond line-of-sight, the shooter must wait until it is again visible before he can take a shot.
Play alternates between golfer and shooter until the ball is destroyed or reaches the cup. The player winning the most holes wins.
Barkeep! Another dram of absinthe, if ye may!
I don't expect to see this at Prestonwood or the Colonial anytime soon...
