The "understablity" helps get them a bit more distance and the height will help avoid a full turnover and give them time to work.

Again, it really depends on how it looks in real life. The hieght may be limited, but a nose-up lower line, sweeping hyzer with a Roc could be the ticket.
If it flips up any you're not going to make the turn and end up in the woods straight ahead / on the right of the fairway.

Finally a course I've played and played a bunch. The pin is downhill with a lot of room to blow by the basket and a tough return putt so most high speed drivers even thrown at partial power could skip and fly. The green is extra rocky and also denies a ton of skips. I go with a Glo Buzzz thrown high almost on a spike hyzer line so it sits and quits near the basket. I've also gone Z Predator but the power required to get it there is tough to get right.

I want to go play this course now...I haven't been in about a month.

Since the consensus here seems to be that a skip is not going to work, or is at least unpredictable at best, I think I would try either a Roc with the mildest of hyzers or a Drone or Trident thrown flat. The rocks in the fairway are what concerns me. We have plenty of holes up here in MN that are similar in layout but have grass or hard dirt where the landing is more predictable.

looks like a perfect hole for my not-quite-beat-in star roc.

Circle C,Austin,Tejas (put the J back in Texas)

I love this course and its on my favorite played list even though I lost my CFR lime green with colt 45s there. I like to sidearm a Special Edition TL on this hole.
