I think I saw a glimpse of the ball so it was a decent... lie. I bet a lot of trick shot guys are saying, that's nuthin'.

Surprised he got club on that ball at all.

For any of us mortals, take an unplayable in that situation! I can't tell you how many times I've tried something like that, only to end up losing the ball completely or just put it further into the bush. Plus, hard to tell, but you might be able to get to the other side of the cart path with an unplayable and then by taking relief from the cart path. Playing that shot puts triple (or worse) into play.

Thats actually a good play if the ball was sitting up. Id be just concerned about getting it over the trees in that scenario. A bad ricochet could have kept him over there.

Here's another angle. Somehow, I forgot the word, "bush". In this video, the audio gave me the impression he hit that pretty hard.

 

Turn that face over.

DOD! (Driver off the Deck).   I wouldn't advise it for mere mortals.

Puts a whole new spin on the phrase "beating around the bush" .
