Default Re: Short golf courses

No. The Executive courses are rated 1 thru 4 in level of difficulty. The 4's are difficult with many par 3's really par 3 1/2's... ie 175+ yards, long carries over swamp, water etc, . Most have 1 or 2 par 4's and at least 1 has a par 5. There are a few level 1's. This allows golfers at all skill levels to learn and enjoy the game without the intimidation of "learning" on a championship country club course. There is a website that explains this much better but I forget what it is. Bottom line... The executive courses in TV are NOT "pitch and putt" courses like up north. They are a delight to play and beautiful to look at.
