Thomas,
 
INWOOD
 
Shortest par 3 is U.S. Open history.
 
Cute little hole,
 
Great Hidden Gem golf course.


Inwood's 10th is short measuring from what I can find at 106 yards…but according to the almighty internet.….


"ARDMORE, Pa. — Most of the holes at Merion Golf Club are the type that'll leave me with night terrors should I have any golf-related dreams over the next few weeks.
[/size]The short par-3 on the 13th, though? Well, there's one I'd like to think I could have a shot at, despite all the bunkers that ring the green. Saturday's setup will measure only 98 yards, which makes it the second-shortest hole in U.S. Open history. Hole 7 at Pebble Beach still ranks atop the short list when it was set for 92 yards during the 2010 U.S. Open."[/color]
Never let the quality of your game determine the quality of your time spent playing it.

Will never forget the troubles the pro's had there when Kite won. 5's and 6 irons.

I know a pro who made an ace there with a 3-iron!
