Par 3: EXTREME Golfing!!



Legends Golf and Safari Resort in South Africa has a very special hole 19 - a par 3 with the teebox that sits 1,400 feet above the green. The 630-yard hole requires a helicopter to reach the tee and a ball that takes nearly 30 seconds to drop to the green below. The brand new golf course was designed by 18 different top-flight golfers, including Padraig Harrington, Colin Montgomerie, KJ Choi, Retief Goosen, Justin Rose, Trevor Immelman and Vijay Singh.
Playing all 19 holes runs about 2,000 South African rand, or about $220 in American bills, but for that you get the helicopter ride, plus a bunch of souvenir swag and a DVD of your shot.


Should you manage to get a hole-in-one on the 19th, Congratulations! - you've just won yourself a cool $1,000,000, and the right to call yourself the most Xtreme golfer on Earth!
