On the "air shot" issue, since we run occasional handicap tournaments so everyone in Black Diamond GC knows how to do it...
It is really pretty simple. On the appropriate hole on the 2nd shot, go to putting, 5% or less power … fairway or rough, the ball will not budge.
It is never relevant on par 3's since they are never the early # handicap holes. So it is really pretty simple.
