Should concept of par be changed on certain short par 3s?
« on: August 02, 2010, 03:46:03 PM »
Thinking of the tour changes to par 4 from member par 5s on a lot of courses in the 490-525 yard range, what about lowering some par 3s to par 2s on certain holes under 150 yards or holes where the vast majority of pros hit 9iron or less?

I think that's more because more pros canhit the green in regulation in 2 shots and walk off with 2 putt pars.  With that logic in mind, you cant assume that pros can get on the green in zero shots.  Does this make sense or have I lost my mind?

How many par three's actually play to a less than three stroke average?

I can't get on board with this one, not neither.  The subsequent key to hitting a par four in one or a par five in two is that a pro has a putter in her/his hands for the eagle shot.  That cannot be the case on a par three hole.
