Courses With The Most Par Fours
« on: October 11, 2022, 03:17:33 PM »
The thread that was revived referencing courses with five par threes got me thinking about most par fours for an 18 hole course. CC of New Bedford has fourteen on the card including five of the first six and seven in a row from 8-14. Anything north of fourteen? My apology if this has already been covered.

The Old Course is the obvious one at 14. I can't think of one with over 14, but I imagine there is something in the UK with like, 16 par 4's and two par 3's

I knew there was one in the UK but I couldn’t think of it. I haven’t played it.

The thing is that when you play it, you don't even notice the fact. Sublime course.

Not the most by any means, but like CC of New Bedford, Wanumetonomy Golf & Country Club in Rhode Island has 14 Par 4’s. 8 Par 4’s on the front.  13 of the first 15 holes are Par 4’s finishing with the lone Par 5, Par 3 and one more Par 4.

You absolutely don't, which speaks to the brilliance of the course. So many half par holes where 4 either feels like a win or a loss.

if you play lakeshore country club in glencoe, illinois starting on hole 10, you will end up playing 9 par 4's in a row from hole 15 through hole 5.
