VIDEO: Playing golf while standing on a paddleboard seems difficult

Golf's tough. Paddleboarding's not only tough, but a great workout. Both require core strength and balance to do well. So why not combine the two?

That's what this Colorado man did at at The Skyland Golf Course in Crested Butte, Colo. Using a limited-flight, floating golf projectile (not ball) called Birdieball, the paddleboarder hits off a faux-turf mat to a target product called Eagle Eye Target Golf. It's kind of like taking the Top Golf concept of hitting golf balls into a circular grid system, but it floats.
