Am enjoying the discussions on this thread - does AGC have any "really good" short P4's ? what are it's P5's like ? Most of you have highlighted it's length re: long P4's.
Kevin, Aronimink has two par 5's... #9 and #16 the latter is definitely reachable for good players (sadly, not me anymore). The former is long, uphill and can certainly be reached in two, but will take two mighty swats with a round-headed club more most of us. Although, I did hear a rumor that a PGA pro gave the new AT&T yardage of 605 a trial run this summer and was miffed that he couldn't get home in two... although I think he did the next time he tried it.
As for short par 4's, there aren't any less than 340 (from the regular member tees) with the 13th being the shortest... 3W - Wedge for most. However as mentioned above there are others:
2 – 372, Dogleg left.
6 – 381. dogleg right. Uphill and blind approach
7 – 376. dogleg right. Downhill approach to well bunkered green.
11 – 388. straight away to the most intense green on the course.
Here’s a course tour from the website:
https://aronimink.memberstatements.com/tour/tours.cfm?tourid=57571Are they “really good”… maybe not in the sense of Merion’s #7 or #11. or Olympic’s #7 or Riviera’s #10 or Crysta Down’s #7. But they – especially #7 and #11 (with its green) – are in the next group for sure.
