How blind does a green need to be to count? There are different levels of it. If it's just can you see the bottom of the flagstick, then in the par 5 bucket, I'd pose 16 at Walton Heath Old, 4 and 13 at Bethpage Black and the 2nd hole at Hindhead. If it's need a marker pole behind the green to see where you're going then it's harder to come up with those. Similarly for par 4s, 5 and 15 at Bethpage fit the bill. 1 on Red.



That's a great point. At Sleepy Hollow there are several really good holes that are only blind to the green depending on where you approach from or how long you hit your tee shot, and others where the shot is always blind.


Sleepy Hollow #2 blind approach


Sleepy Hollow #4  gentle rise in fairway makes green blind 


Sleepy Hollow #5 approach to skyline green 


Sleepy Hollow #6 - Par 5 Blind second shot for most shorter hitters 


Sleepy Hollow #9 rise in fairway can make second shot blind 


Sleepy Hollow #15 second shot aim for guide flag pole


Sleepy Hollow #18 blind pitch over right side bunker to elevated green
