The two rotations mentioned have 6 par 5's, 6 4's and 6 3's.
There are several reasons for so many holes in one:
***There are over 3 million rounds of golf played here each year
***Since there are over 350 holes of executive golf and probably 300+ par 3's on them, the odds increase
***a lot of the holes in ones are, well forgive my attitude, "rinky-dink"-----65 yards with a skulled driver from a very short tee
"Flat" has nothing to do with it

I thought 9-hole was the definition of an executive course.
Thank you for your insights. I am glad to hear that the courses are more than just a pitch n putt on steroids.
Billiethkid, this was not a troll bait post.
Thanks All!
