9 Palmetto
9 Meadowbrook (Long Island) is a hell of a hole

I think Mike Kaiser hacked Rob’s account!

Something is up. Rob's question is akin to asking if there are any good looking women in Sydney.

As a first time poster (thank you, Ran) I’m treading carefully though confidently that the 5th on the south course at Wentworth (yes, officially the Edinburgh) is a truly excellent uphill par 3… yes a thinning of the pines would be welcome, though I am not sure that it would improve the hole.

A little off the beaten path is no. 3 at Carolina GC (Ross) in Charlotte.  From the back tees, 234 and 201, it may be slightly downhill, but from the two forward tees it's 164 and 121 uphill.  I play it uphill. Is it a good hole?  I think so, but then I'm not sure I'm qualified to judge.  On the other hand, it's the toughest hole on the course in relation to par and nice to get out of the way early.

I don't know if Kalen is following this thread, but I hope he does his measurement wizardry. As noted by a couple of us, holes that appear uphill are not when I measured, but Kalen is way better at it than I am. Some of my favorites included that people have mentioned.

I think #13 at Presidio falls into this category. It looks uphill, but I suspect tee to green it isn’t more than a few feet.

Very good guess. According to Google Earth the green at the 13th at Presidio is 2 feet higher than the tee.
