Played at a course called sun mountain in rural Washington (1 1/2 hours east of Seattle). Beautiful course, but holy $*** were the greens solid!!! A 120 yard par 3, used my ATV 58*, watched it hit 2 feet past the pin, and figured it would spin back a little, using the Bridgestone B330-S....well, I was wrong. I watched the ball bounce back to my head height(6 feet +), and proceed to go 19 yards through the air...yes, 19 YARDS, not feet, but YARDS!!! The ball mark was so small, I questioned if it was even worth repairing!!! I couldn't get these greens today, hit and bounced it like that on 5 holes. I couldn't club down because then I wouldn't make the green. Does anyone have recommendations on how to handle greens like this?

Knockdowns and bump and runs that land short of the green and roll on up are your best bet when you can't hold greens.
