Let's break out 12 holes (short, medium short, medium long, and long) by par three, par four and par five and I'll suggest MacKenzie's finest hole(s) per group as a starting pointing.
Pick any other architect that you wish and match his best against MacKenzie's best. Can your man put up a reasonably score against MacKenzie's best?
Short Par Three (<140y)10 at Kingston Heath or 15 at CPC
Score: 9 out of 10
Medium Short Par Three (141y-165y)15 at Kingston Heath or 12 at Augusta National or 11 at Lahinch or 7 at Royal Melbourne West
Score: 9 out of 10
Medium long Par Three (166y-200y)5 at Royal Melbourne West
Score: 10 out of 10
Long Par Three (201>)16 at CPC
Score: 10 out of 10
Short Par Four (<330y)9 at CPC or 3 at Royal Adelaide or 10 at Royal Melbourne West
Score: 9 out of 10
Medium Short Par Four (331y-390y)3rd at Royal Melbourne West or 13 at CPC or 9 at Lahinch or 14 at NSW
Score: 9 out of 10
Medium long Par Four (391y-430y)12 at CPC
Score: 9 out of 10
Long Par Four (431>)6 at Royal Melbourne West
Score: 10 out of 10
Short Par Five (<510y)13 at Augusta National
Score: 10 out of 10
Medium Short Par Five (511y-540y)4 at Royal Melbourne West or 5 at NSW
Score: 10 out of 10
Medium long Par Five (541y-570y)8 at Crystal Downs
Score: 9 out of 10
Long Par Five (571y>)16 at Crystal Downs
Score: 7 out of 10 (What others did he build this long??)
Against a perfect score of 120 (10 pts per hole x 12 types of holes), MacKenzie posts a 111, and he's in the clubhouse
Not too bad for a Scot!
Cheers,
PS The terminology of medium long par three for instance is based on where the ball goes today as opposed to when MacKenzie built these holes. You can move the yardages around as you see fit.
PPS What would be interesting as well would be to see what MacKenzie's second (and third) wave of holes would total. With subs like 11,14 at Royal Adelaide and 16,17 at Melbourne West and 6,7 at CPC and 3, 5 at Augusta National and 3, 4 at The Valley Club and 10, 16 at Pasatiempo charging in off the bench, his score might well stay above 110 for at least two more rounds.
