What It Takes: Skull Island

Hitting -30 on Our Second Course is Certainly Feasible - We Examine it Shot by Shot!

We've featured a handful of players in the past month that have been skilled and fortunate enough to hit an elusive -30 in PowerPutt. On the surface, this looks like a near impossible feat, but it's obvious that some of the game's most committed players are figuring it out.

To hit 30-under you need to be almost perfect throughout your round, but not completely perfect. Taking advantage of easier holes is key and you have to avoid finding yourself in any trouble whatsoever.

To showcase exactly how someone might hit this magic number, we've laid out a realistic way to maneuver through a round to tackle this feat. Taken into consideration was the par for that hole, the difficulty, and the likelihood of a hole-in-one. We began our series by examining Dusty Trail, and are now taking a look at Skull Island. To hit a -30 here, you're going to need to take full advantage of a lot of par-3s!
