Hard to put doors on a golf ball.

I like to remember the example of giving an engineer a dimpled plastic-coated sphere a little over 1.5" in diameter and ask for the calculations of what forces, angles, etc are needed to place it within 2ft? of a 4" round hole 180 yards away, or just hand the same ball to Tiger and see in done in approx 90 seconds.
The reduction to practice would a 37 mm adaptoer for the AR-15 Can Cannon (normally 67 mm). 90 seconds vs subsonic.
