This is more common with Beginner Golfers who are still finding their way in the game and may not have received any course orientation. Players leaving their clubs in the wrong place and not being mindful which direction they need to go to reach the next tee. Not following the direction their tee shots have gone and then having to spend time trying to find their ball. Golfers not being aware of their surroundings, or any idea of course etiquette, is a big factor. And there were still guys making birdies…which is just nuts. I managed to get on in regulation but then 3-putted. My best score on this hole so far, at this yardage, is a 6. In this competition the course plays it’s full 7,200+ yard length and the par 5 hole is actually made up of two par 4’s added together.Īfter you hit your tee shot, there is an ‘olde world style’ stone direction sign on the fairway which kindly tells you that you still have a quarter of a mile to go (440 yards / 400 Meters) ![]() The longest Par 5 I have ever played is 725 Yards, at The Players Club in Bristol, where the annual Stiff Salver is played. These are not hard and fast rules but guidelines from the USGA Par 5 holes range in length from 471 yards up to the maximum of 690 yards for men and 401 yards up to the maximum of 575 yards for women. On average it will take 12 minutes for a two-ball to play a Par 5 Hole. ![]()
