Ok so hurdling the ball, at first glance, sounds like a good idea... but balls do bounce...and this ball inperticular bounces about 4 feet when dropped from 6 1/2 feet which i would think is roughly the high point of a ball going over the bar.
i have a post going about bouncing track balls and trying to formulate ideas on how to regain control here

so unless a method of regaining control is found... it might be easier to get points a different way...
