do you think that some random Rohan soldier can do it

Actually, I think I am a fan of this route, I hardly think that it's an impossible shot for a random Rohirrim (they're not bad with a bow & arrow on horseback, even). I've heard some people say that this wouldn't work because they would've overheard how Gandalf (or Theoden) didn't want Grima killed & so they wouldn't have killed him. But as I remember, Frodo says many times that he does not want even
Saruman killed (much less Grima, who did not attempt to assasinate Frodo)--but a random hobbit archer killed Wormtounge. I see no problem at all with the Rohirrim route.
