One shot.
I would totally take that bet if it’s sequential. ie. If I miss shot 1 owe $50k. I continue to shoot. Each miss another $50k lost. But, but when I get one on the green I get the $2.6M and owe the $$& balance of my previous losses. I’m a crap golfer but I would take the shots at that yardage 135 yards, probably a 7 iron, and hope to land softly. Heck, I’d do it for $500K. Get 1 of 10 shots. But at the 9th shot I’d change my shorts to Depends.
