Feels like there's too much rolling resistance, even with a perfectly lined up shot there's not so far you can go. And definitely not enough to make it in 6! Also if the camera angle is too high, you can't pull back far enough to reach maximum speed.

Got it done in 4.

Mind giving a description for the jurisdictionally challenged? (imgur self-censors in the UK)

Before making the first shot, turn around and face backwards. Shoot back and to the left toward the barrier. After the ball ricochets, it should hit the downward-angled barrier on the opposite side and hop over it to the end section, where it's not too hard to sink the ball with three or four more shots.

Prove you can get in the hole in just 6 putts, damn you.

I scored 5. Bank at max power at 5 o’clock from tee, the ball bounces over the wall and skips most of the course.

Thanks for the tip. Was 26. Now 4.

More specifically: aim back, and where the left side (as you now face) starts to ramp down there aim for the spot where it starts to slope down. Full power.
