You could point it at the kick mic. Just make sure it's not plugged in!
 (kidding) SM57 isn't the best mic for bass drum, but if it's all you've got I would put it just inside the front of the shell, pointed at the beater.

Wrap it up in a towel and throw it in there. Any sort of strategy will probably just drive you to drink.

Its a challenge, that's for sure.
Phil's got it right- use it like any kick dynamic mic. If its all I have I tend to not point it right at the beater. I start there but angle it off to some degree. Otherwise all you get is click. Spend some time getting the placement so that it sounds the best it can. Chris

Use it as a beater.
I think someone else had this same thread last week. Someone posted in it that the RHCP used a 57 on the kick.
