Shortest holes ever

[prerube]

in another thread we are discussing short holes.
What is the shortest hole you have ever played.

I have found some in the 130's, but I can not recall any holes under 100ft.

[mickas]

winter park, kewaunee wisconsin, i believe has a 125 from the shorts, very very heavily wooded...

[prerube]

Someone on http://www.dgcoursereview.com/forums/showthread.php?p=155110#post155110

reported a 116 ft. fole

[tmahan]

#17 at The Grange Sunnyside - 130 twisted feet

Garry E Cavan (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=2732)near Edwardsville, In.
Haven't played there yet, but Hole #10 Pin Position A from red tees is listed as 80ft.

[BrotherDave]

Hole 9 at Rutgers, aka Cubby's stomping grounds = 57'; hole 11 at Richlands, NC = 87'

[prerube]

WOW 57ft. is it heavily wooded with a small lake...of LAVA?

I wouldn't play that hole unless their is a disc eating lion chained to a thorn bush that is on fire between the tee and the basket. -myself on another thread

[BrotherDave]

Well, let's let Cubby show us how to do it.<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GLQzH7g7SlI&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GLQzH7g7SlI&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Hole 4 at Sunbury DGC - 115'
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/view_image.php?p=course_pics/1879/ad7fc092.jpg

Its a fun little hole that goes up a small hill in the woods before a real hard left turn. There are enough trees that ace runs aren't as easy as the distance would indicate. This course is fairly short through out but does have a 330' and a 420' hole.

[Disc Dog]

Hole 9 at Rutgers, aka Cubby's stomping grounds = 57'; hole 11 at Richlands, NC = 87'

I've played this one.

NO 5 at Chimney Rock is 100 feet through the trees and over an stream that it would be hard to get one out of.

[DSCJNKY]

A course (Buncombe County Park - not on this site yet... I need to get permission to put it up) that is in Asheville has 6 holes ranging from 101' - 179'. It's wide open (not a tree on the property), flat, and has no OB. A good course for kids or girlfriends to learn on... Or to add to your ACE count (if you desire to add to your ace count in that way).

#17 at The Grange Sunnyside - 130 twisted feet

the infamous pachinko hole. i've seen pros in tournaments take scores from 1-6 on it.

[steven2361]

Nims Park in Rock Falls IL
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1604&mode=ci

I've driven by it and it is a square of park and you can see all 18 newish discatchers from any spot in the park. It's rediculous when the awsome course, Sinnissippi Park, in Stirling, is a mile away and could use some new baskets!

[adam423]

Winton Woods (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=877&mode=hi) # 11 is 90ft. The entire course is pretty short though, was built in 1981 for lids.

[asu225]

#7 at Fewell Park is 65ft.

[Neophyte]

Hole 9 at Rutgers, aka Cubby's stomping grounds = 57'; hole 11 at Richlands, NC = 87'

Do you normally throw a putter or midrange for something that short?

[billnchristy]

The shortest course in the Atlanta area:
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1355&mode=hi
It is certainly not easy though....

Shortest holes at my home course...basket is around the corner and down the hill:
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course_pics/3345/5642df6f.jpg
158' from red 218 blue

next, hole 11:
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course_pics/3345/be8c2353.jpg
157' and 198' in the short pin, basket is uphill and right

The Grove hole 3:
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course_pics/1904/5d1fe1e2.jpg
126' I mistakingly said 116' earlier

Not a whole lot of easy ace holes here...not for a chucklehead of my skill level anyways.

[harr0140]

Riverside Park in Merrill WI has a 78' and an 84'. I played it and dueced them both!!! That was sarcastic excitement.

http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1758&mode=hi

[Vepr]

At Chimney Rock in new jersey there is a hole that is exactly 100 feet.

http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course_pics/796/ca5ab8d5.jpg

Its over a little stream and has lots of little trees right behind it so you dont have a straight throw to the basket.

[Midnightbiker]

Cedar Brook Elementary School in Houston , TX . Hole # 3 is 119ft. Of course the whole course is 1240ft.

http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1086&mode=hi

The Riverview course has some really short holes. The distance is not posted but there are a few shorter than 100ft.

[ovar]

Old Farm Park in Grand Rapids, MI has a hole that is 99'. There is a mando that you have to play around that adds some difficulty. The mando is on the tree that looks like it is sticking out of the sign.

The basket is to the left hidden by a tree.

Old Farm DGreview (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=462&mode=hi)http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course_pics/462/b78023a1.jpg

[mashnut]

Crestmont Park (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=338&mode=hi) in Bloomington IN has a hole that's 79' from short tee, and 192' from the long. I've seen people take pretty high scores, even from the short tee, because the basket is well protected, and right at the top of a steep 15' drop off, lots of people hit the basket and come rolling back down the hill on putts.

[Olorin]

I've added the holes listed here to my NC Course Guide (http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/DGCourseReviews/files/Course%20Guides/) and U.S. Course Guide. (http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/DGCourseReviews/files/Course%20Guides/) These can be found in the Files at the Yahoo Group DG Course Reviews (http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/DGCourseReviews/).

I've compiled lists of short holes in NC and in other states. Check out the Short holes list (http://sites.google.com/site/discgolfcoursereviews/Home/short-holes).

[CwAlbino]

Hole 11 at Red Oak in Minnesota is only 160 feet long, downhill and allows a hyzer in. Ace runs every time, I always got pissed if I got any higher than a two. Only had 1 ace on that hole though :(

[Olorin]

The shortest holes in North Carolina:

Length- Course- Hole #- City
51, Ridgecrest, hole 6, Black Mountain. A very private course for kids.
69, Tolley, hole 1, Elon
80, Cross Mill, hole 7, Marion

That's some good info Olorin.

so we have found 2 in the 50s and many under 100'
and we have seen puttable Cubby Holes are not too rare

There's rarely anyone there, except for an area left of hole #6 near the pond.......I used to play that course at lunch 3-4 times a week, really improved my short game.

Olorin- I played that course right after I started. There were a couple long holes too, but some of those short ones were ridiculous! Like the one that ran next to the fence for the BBall court on the left, with the drop off into the trees on thee right...I think that was hole 9...might have been 8.

I wondered about listing that course here, but I don't think you can even get on the grounds without being there for an event.

[agapedad]

Oh yeah - any chance you have all the lengths for that one? I have my scores, but I didn't write down any lengths. I like that hole that goes across the field, and the basket sits on the side of the hill behind the tree.
It was fun for a beginner!

[double_s]

Garry E Cavan (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=2732)near Edwardsville, In.
Haven't played there yet, but Hole #10 Pin Position A from red tees is listed as 80ft.

Number 10 & 12 have been changed. Not sure of the new distances. AdamH on this board was involved in the recent redesign. Plays much better now.

agapedad,

Either they substantially changed the course after you played there, or you're thinking of a different course. There was no Basketball court with a fence, no long holes, and no field. This course is all up on a small hill in the woods at the Ridgecrest Conference Center. I wonder if you're mixing this up with the old layout of the public Black Mountain Park course down the road?

You're right, though, that you can't play there unless you're staying there. There's a gate guard who checks.

[agapedad]

It was at the Ridgecrest Conference Center owned by Lifeway.
Yeah, they must have changed it, cause it is now 18 holes. I didn't remember any as short as you were saying, but I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention.
I just played it on August 10th.
There are actually 2 different fields you throw over now...actually 3. Some fairly long holes..I think 1 of them was even close to 400', but I can't remember for sure. Several very tight shots up the road.

[Camgolfer]

Hole 9 at Johnny Roberts DGC (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=581&mode=ci) in Arvada, CO has Pin A at 99 feet and Pin B at 144 feet. Usually a birdie hole, but there is a creek that runs right behind the basket making it easy to overthrow in the water.

[The Valkyrie Kid]

Ferguson Park in Snohomish, Washington. # 6 is 84 feet. Shortest hole in the state that I know of.

[Olorin]

agapedad,

Either they substantially changed the course after you played there, or you're thinking of a different course...OR I played a different layout before they changed it. ;) (I thought maybe you had played many years ago.)

Agape, thanks for the update. I just hope the new layout is as good as the old one. The old Harold Duvall design was a classic example of an almost ideal Green level course for kids.

[Roc1Time]

The entire course at Lake Murry State Park in Ok

[DirtyMittenDG]

And the shortest hole in the world is................................................ ....


Hole #6 at the "Flint YMCA" in Michigan.

30ft.!!! That's right, 30ft!

You go up to the tee, turn left, and the basket is behind a thick brush/vine patch. Theres no way to go through the middle, you can either take the long path around or go over the top. I'll get a picture of it the next time I go.

[Olorin]

The second shortest (so far):
50 ft, hole 6, Lake Murray Lodge (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1447&mode=hi), in Lake Murray, OK

They have really cool baskets (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/view_image.php?p=course_pics/1447/0b941c35.jpg) too.

As the caption says you see basket 8 straight ahead, but basket 6 is to the left behind the bush.

[radsnowsurfer]

If you want a really awesome short hole check out hole 14 at Dalaiwood, Scott Papa's private course in the West sound in Washington. The course manages to be very challenging and fair despite most holes being in the mid to low 200's in their shorter positions.

Here's his own caption for the hole.
"Often the most talked about hole on the course. The standard question is "What fairway?" Well, at 130' a person has the option of throwing two 60' upshots and having a 10' putt for a par. Is the fairway small? Oh yeah! Is the hole short? Oh yeah! Has it been aced numerous times? Oh yeah! Is it easy to take a four on the shortest hole on the course? Oh yeah!"

[agapedad]

Agape, thanks for the update. I just hope the new layout is as good as the old one. The old Harold Duvall design was a classic example of an almost ideal Green level course for kids.


Obviously, I am not sure what the previous layout was, but this was actually pretty tough because some of it was so tight! The course in town was MUCH easier!

[DirtyMittenDG]

As the caption says you see basket 8 straight ahead, but basket 6 is to the left behind the bush.

In that picture, hole #6's basket isn't just behind that bush, its like 90-95 degrees to your left from that spot. That bush on the far left side is just a start of what the basket is behind :eek:.

There's really no view of the hole or fairway from that picture, thats why I said i'll take one next time i'm there.

[asu225]

I'd say we've found the shortest, can't believe there's one out there less than 30 feet.

[cefire]

#17 at The Grange Sunnyside - 130 twisted feet

And it ain't easy...

I bogey more than birdie!

[Macnamara]

I'm not sure what the distance is - but 5 at Chimney Rock can't be much more than 50ft.

[G-MIL]

I've been reading the thread and it's ridiculous how short some of those holes can get, there's just no challenge there. I realize this isn't the shortest course but I played this 9 hole'r one time on my way from college to the parents place and not only was it a overwhelmingly short course (2 holes barely over 200 and the rest between 120-150) but hole #1 was 80 ft. if I recall correctly. Riverview Park (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1763&mode=ci) in Marshalltown, IA. No pics but stats.

[Conler Milrad]

Worst course of the 38 I've played.

[80playedin10states]

short doesn't necessarily mean easy..18th hole at hyzer creek near saratoga, ny may be 150', but i have seen scores range from an ace to a 6..green lakes in fayetteville, ny has a 75' hole(number 3?)

[Olorin]

[solomon.trenton]

lake murray lodge has 6 holes under 100 feet! talk about the course being an ace race.

[trashmonster1985]

ever played davidson college in NC? the entire course has 18 of the shortest holes. they even mark the ones in the high 100's as par 4's and 5's, kind of interesting.

[Dave242]

At one time, I was going to run a creative & goofy, but PDGA sanctioned (legal) tournament. One of the gags was going to be a 5' hole. That way everyone (I hope so at least!) could bag themselves a tournament ace. :D

[Trashthrasher]

The old layout of Valley View in Wisconsin had one that was maybe 90' over a ravine & through a bunch of trees. That one & every other good hole they had there are gone & replaced with crappy flat nonsense. I guess vandalism & general D-bag behavior is the cause of this.

[humchris85]

You need to have Manchester Beach KOA (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=3356) and Manila (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=992) in there somewhere.

[Terry C]

Hole 3 at old farm (west MI) is like 90 feet, but it has a dogleg that makes it impossible to ace, I deuce it 95% of the time though. Gotta love the doglegs.

[tallpaul]

Manila is like half the niners in Illinois. Nims Park, Rock Falls, Illinois (http://http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=1604) is their king of short courses. I enjoyed throwing ace runs on every hole at this one. My traveling partner and I each shot a -17. You lose on this course when you don't get a deuce. You may need an ace to win!!!

[waynewf]

Ken Caryle in Littleton, CO has a couple of holes less then 130....I could actually play this hole course with a putter and score very well....18 holes in less then 30 minutes!

has anyone asked cubby if he knows;)

[skurf]

Here's the shortest hole I've played, which of course I boggied. It felt like it was maybe 110' but I didn't measure or even pace it...I was too busy trying to get out of the woods after I hit one of the first trees.

Yeah, that one is pretty short (& tight)... I've actually parked it both times I've played it...now I've totally jinxed myself. :doh:

Hole 4 at Coyote Point at Lake Casitas, CA is the shortest on a real course out here in So Cal that I know of. It is the only extremely short hole. Of course, awesome mandy through the tree! 123 feet.

123' uphill with a low ceiling that doubles as a mandy doesn't count as "short"... I mean I guess it's short... but, it requires a driver. Fun hole!

Garry E Cavan (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=2732)near Edwardsville, In.
Haven't played there yet, but Hole #10 Pin Position A from red tees is listed as 80ft.

Yeah, we got rid of that crap-tastic hole. It's roughly 225-250 down an very narrow, wooded fairway.

There was another 90-100 foot hole the designer (if we can call him that) put in that's since been changed.

[MotoDj]

maybe mmyers can elaborate on this, but
elliot park (now closed) had a few under 130
dr. lawless had a bunch, i was there one time and i remember the first three holes were 120, 130, 125, hehe, i was mad to make the drive for that, i know they had shorter ones, but what made me mad was getting 3's and 4's on some of those holes... i'm not that bad of a golfer, but trees had fallen, no fairway was really clear, i only remembered a few that had a clear sight of the basket, just poor course maintenance... with that being said, you could tell a storm had done the damage and i dont know how long it stayed that way - i was there one time - but i know the course has been redesigned, i just looked it up and all the holes have grown in length so i'm not sure what it looks like now, maybe its worth another trip to the course, the upsetting part was its a pay to play and it was the 2nd worse course i'd ever seen at the time, now i reserve judgement till i see it again

[optidiscic]

Bert and Ernie Park in Colorado has a 48 footer! Plenty of shorties there it appears.....I guess if theres an Elmo Park it might have a shorter hole!!!!

[Olorin]

I've updated my list of Short Holes (http://sites.google.com/site/discgolfcoursereviews/Home/short-holes).

The 48 ft. Bert and Ernie Park hole 5 is number 2 on the list.

[Cgkdisc]

I like that 30 footer on top of the list where you can't even follow thru from the tee pad because you're already putting... :)

[discgolferjr]

there is a hole at Winton Woods is only 90 ft and the longest hole is 290 ft

[Three Putt]

Hole # 2, Campton Hills (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=704&mode=ci) in St. Charles, IL. 125 ft. Elevated tee. Wide open route to the hole with the pin set slightly to the left. There is a drop-off behind the hole but there are a ton of guardian trees behind the hole to knock down a long shot. The pin is hidden from the tee, and that is about the only positive I can think of for that shot. It literally made me laugh out loud. It might not be the shortest hole out there, but it has to be in the running for the easiest.

But it is in character with the rest of the course. Six of the nine shots are less than 200' and the longest shot tops out at 223'. It's weenie-arm heaven.

Edit: D'OH! #2 isn't even the shorted hole on the course. #7 is only 111 ft. In defense of # 7, it is straight up. It's a simple tommy shot up the hill for deuce and reminded me a lot of the 98' shot from the red tee on # 10 at White Birch. It was short and relatively easy, but not in the laugh out loud kind of way that a 123' shot with an elevated tee and wide open hyzer route to the hole is.

[prerube]

I want to go to lake murray lodge 4 holes 75 feet or less. Cubby ace time!

[mashnut]

And 3 more that are under 115, definitely sounds like a place to pad the ace stats.

I've driven by it and it is a square of park and you can see all 18 newish discatchers from any spot in the park. It's rediculous when the awsome course, Sinnissippi Park, in Stirling, is a mile away and could use some new baskets!

This course is a real trip! I played it this summer as a warmup for Sinnisippi. Standing at any given tee you can see at least 3 baskets. Someone spraypainted hole #s and arrows on the trees to avoid confusion. Average hole length is ~110'. I agree that the baskets would be better used elsewhere.

[solomon.trenton]

this course is an ace race http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=3455&mode=hi

[Midnightbiker]

Do you normally throw a putter or midrange for something that short?

Anything under 150ft is a putter for me.

Young's Run (Warren, Ohio) Original Course #5 was 79 foot. One player shot an 11 in a tournament refusing not to lay-up, going strong with many bad breaks. Basket sits on a steep slope.

[solomon.trenton]

that has got to be embarrassing

[tallpaul]

Lake Murray Lodge has some water in play, if I remember correctly. Also, I enjoy playing the old saucer baskets. 4 courses played/three states (with saucer baskets). Course is also kind of unique in a beachy/sandy way. Little bit of possible window breakage possibility just to scare ya a little. Sad to say that I've given a little props to two courses mentioned in this thread. But, because they were just TOO CUTE, I like this one and Nims Park better than tons of little, craptastic niners that are "more normal."

[steven2361]

This course is a real trip! I played it this summer as a warmup for Sinnisippi. Standing at any given tee you can see at least 3 baskets. Someone spraypainted hole #s and arrows on the trees to avoid confusion. Average hole length is ~110'. I agree that the baskets would be better used elsewhere.

Lol they should just switch the baskets between the two parks :hfive:

[richardmmill]

Alexandria DGC has no hole info on here but there is a hole thats about 40ft and the half of the holes there have to be 50ft-75ft.

[roadtripstuff]

There is a course here at the Ohio State University and hole #16 is really short. It used to be 195ft. but they shortened, almost by half, and never changed the sign. Here is a pic from the tee, you can see the basket just past that big tree.

[Swisher Streets]

Tourist Park in Cedar Falls, IA has two that are under 175'

[adlacro]

Wehr's Dam/Covered Bridges in Orefield, PA has the 12th hole, a straight downhill tee shot at 120 feet. The third hole is maybe a buck fifty with a tight uphill turn. The 6th is maybe a little over 100, but it has a huge rock in front of it.

[JMONEY]

River walk in Riverside California has hole #1 85ft!

[Danger]

^Mills Park in Carson has an 83 foot hole. That is officially my shortest ever lol.

[Mushin No Shin]

Winsor DGC in Coos Bay, Oregon is sadly short. One hole is definitely under 100'. GWillim reviewed it as first con... 85 footer (it's in the pictures as hole#4 perhaps) I sorta remember: it was a little down hill even, but with guardian trees.

Olorin,

Just to set the record straight, Rutgers # 9 is 104 feet in length. I'm the one who measured the whole course (with a measuring wheel - not as good maybe as a laser, but what the heck). Their existing sign numbers (from god knows when) are REALLY goofy in some cases and spot on in others (go figure). People are now in the midst of "re-signing" the course (with accurate numbers).

Karl

Ps: You DO have Chimney Rock's # 5 correct (I measured that one too).

[Apothecary]

heres an 85'er at River Walk DGC. I dont even think it was 85'.:\

[Apothecary]

Those tees are special (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/reviews.php?id=3228&page=1&mode=rev#18548). Nicest ive seen.

[Cgkdisc]

Have to use tennis shoes though because any type of cleats or nubs might catch on those deep grooves.

[disc-o maniac]

Hole 9 at Rutgers, aka Cubby's stomping grounds = 57'; hole 11 at Richlands, NC = 87'

the sign says 57 feet. but its actually somewhere in the 80's. i made fun of it on one of the reviews and cubby himself set me straight

[heelboycraig]

[QUOTE=Apothecary;255003]heres an 85'er at River Walk DGC. I dont even think it was 85'.:\

I'm glad the tee pad has a big arrow on it to clarify where the basket is.

[WillACarpenter]

Do you normally throw a putter or midrange for something that short?

This depends on the type of shot needed to get there. Really it's between a buzzz, challenger and putt'r....putt'r holds great slow anny lines.

[Karl]

Disc-O and Solomon,

Again, read post 97 (of this thread). Rutgers # 9 is 104 feet (give or take a foot). Not 57, not somewhere in the 80's.

Karl

[solomon.trenton]

then why dont you update the course info?

[Karl]

ST,

Because I'm kind of new here (<20 posts opposed to a bazillion) and didn't know I even COULD do such (or if it's in my "rights" to do so)!

I've presented the "powers that be" (at Rutgers) with the new data; they're working on updating the course (which is a LOT more important than updating some MB db). After that, maybe they'll update "other things".

Karl

[Olorin]

I updated the list of Short holes and finally changed the length of Rutgers U hole 9.

I also moved some pages around so the Short Holes page is now found here (http://sites.google.com/site/discgolfcoursereviews/Home/usa-reviews/short-holes).

P.S.- Karl, welcome to DGCR and thanks for your work measuring Rutgers! One of the great things about DGCR is that anybody can update course information. You just need to log in separately to the main course home.

[Ryan P.]

There's a bunch of short holes at Peak's View Park in Lynchburg, and the shortest is 120. It's easy to deuce, possible to ace, simple to par, and bogeys happen here and there.

Beth Schmidt Park in Elon or Burlington, NC is all under 100' but one hole. However, it's on a day-care facility.

[SmoothSailor]

Young's Run (Warren, Ohio) Original Course #5 was 79 foot. One player shot an 11 in a tournament refusing not to lay-up, going strong with many bad breaks. Basket sits on a steep slope.

And that steep slope has a nice drop off behind it with a creek right behind it, now hole 5's short tee is 143 ft. 3 other short holes on the course would be:
Hole 8 (short Tee) 108ft. Straight ahead a little bit of elevation and a big hill on the left with plenty of trees and branches to tangle you up.
Hole 11 127 ft of straight with two punishing trees just to left before the basket.
Hole 14 183 ft of straight in, trees on both sides, open ceiling and a cat tail/marsh about 10ft wide and 30ft long in the middle of the fairway.

[cydisc]

Short to short at Carroll Marty DGC in Ames, IA is about 80'. I think that sleeve as been empty since the first year it was in.

I don't care enough to dig up the picture, but hole 3 at Conejo Valley YMCA is pretty pathetic. Probably 50 feet or so.

[WorldsCoolestGuy]

Hole 7, 111 ft. Campton hills, St Charles Illinois. Very short, yet very interesting uphill shot.

[Martin Dewgarita]

I know the course is designed for the disabled, the first time I played it, I didn't realize it - I figured maybe the first few holes were short, but it took me until about hole 8 to realize that they were all 70-120 feet and designed for blind players, but the 9 hole layout at Ashe Lake Mississippi has to be about the shortest entire course ever.

[mabraddock]

i play a league at a private course out south of grand rapids and he s got a couple of holes in the 100-125' area, but, with no basket visibility and a five foot wide fairway (smooth hyzer) and a wall of foliage (spike anhyzer) they are not "easy holes" by any stretch of the imagination... also, to my GR peeps how about ALL of brewer blue, and #10 at jaycees (110' maybe?)(right around the corner from old farm)...

[harr0140]

a course designed for the blind? That is awesome!
I taught Disc golf with a blind student in my class, but thought thought having multiple children with visual impairments on a single course would be too difficult for me to try teach at a summer camp for kids with visual impairments.

*edit I read the reviews and it looks like it is wheelchair accessible, not necessarily for the visually impaired.

[Martin Dewgarita]

It's a cool concept for sure - I doubt that course sees much use at all for what it's designed for as it's miles from anywhere, like 20 miles to Hattiesburg MS.

I saw a visually impaired kid at Basset Creek MN with his dad, I was a little confused at first as I was trying to follow them, I didn't know my way around the course - eventually I figured out they were making up their own holes and I shouldn't be following them to play the course, but it was cool to see the kid play, his dad would walk ahead and jingle the chains to give him a sound to throw at.

[Matthew boals]

After reading all of the posts' I'm really surprised that only ONE hole is "69" ft.!....come on designers! Now how about this how many holes are "420"ft.?

thats a really short hole, ive never seen one shorter

[BENFTS]

Peter B set a one day tournament and one of the holes was about 90' but about 60' below you. Set on a steep hill the key was landing the disc in the bush next to the basket so it wouldn't roll down the ravine. Even though it was a short hole it was tough to card a three without a killer tee shot.

Well to be fair, it was a bit longer than 90'. More like 150 but you are correct in the drop. Plus the tee was set up such that it was almost impossible to throw a RHBH. You'll see when we go back out to Pescadero to set it up...

[liamxparker]

uh, personally, 120' something.

[bikinjack]

I played another really short one the other day. I give you Hole 4 Northwestern High School, Rock Hill, SC. The sign says 85 feet, but I think they got the tape wrapped around a tree or two to get that measurement, cause it didn't seem that long to me. I putted from the tee.

It's still a cool hole. It's a finesse shot that I at least don't have to throw very often except on some approaches, and makes you think about elevation and things like that.

I bet it requires a measure of skill.

Back in 1995 when our course was first installed we held the record for shortest in the world at 127'. It went from hole 8 to 10 to 11 and now that we're a full 18 holes it has settled at number 13.

I don't know if this course has been mentioned yet, as I didn't scroll through all the pages, but I went to it when I was visiting relatives in the Houston area as it was fairly close. Definitely a place to work on your putter shots. Bring a Wizard and a water bottle and you're good to go. I couldn't confirm any of the measurements, but there's only one hole showing over 150 ft. I see that people have posted shorter holes, but as a total course, this one has to be up there.

I made a road trip to Springfield IL today. We played both The North and South courses at Lincoln Park. They seem to be redesigning the courses for the upcoming tournament, because the hole I'm talking about does not appear in any of the media or hole info on this site. But anyway...

Hole 3 (I think it was the south course? This course is very poorly marked). There was no tee sign, only a post marking the tee pad. It cant have been more than 60'.

It was a fun hole though. I don't think that they are allowed to remove trees at this park, so we are talking virgin woods. Open for about 20' then you have to choose which 2' gap you are going to hit. Then the basket is on an up hill slop.

There were 4 of us and we took one bird (tree love), two pars and a bogus. The hardest 60' I've played.

[Coasterbrad]

Can we count The Blockhouse (formerly The Grange) Tiki course? Most of the 18 holes are under 100', and it is such a fun and unique course to play. The hole lengths are actually measured in inches on all of the tee signs.

hole #4 @ gordon moore (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/media.php?id=4057&mode=media#) park in alton, il. generously listed as 120 ft.

[lion]

there is a 30-33 foot hole in a ymca course in thousand oaks california.

[mikeb23]

Not quite on par with the others in this thread, but Red Fox in Silver Lake, Wisconsin has a hole that's wide open, and 125 ft.

if its the hole i am thinking of its downhill as well and i dont think its 125 feet i know thats what is listed but i would say its 100 at the most

[chrishank]

Wow those a some short holes. Smallest I know of is probably athens regional, hole 9 is like 150 but downhill so don't throw hard at all or you'll be 150 over the basket. Lol.

[412Disc]

The whole tiki course..

[DiscGolfer947]

hole 1 and 2 at River Ranch DGC (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=2820&mode=hi) 60 & 88ft, idk about you but i think thats pretty pathetic. haha:p

[birdman101]

There are 2 or 3 middle schools with 9 baskets a piece near my house but no tee pads or signs or anything so i dk if you can call it a course but none of the baskets are more than 100 feet from each other

I would love to just sit there and watch people throw mids and drivers on that whole. That would be just fun to watch.

[JFink2011]

Hole 5 at Andrew Brown Park is 88 feet...

The real question here is, do you actually jump putt it or lay up for the deuce? Only P***ies lay up...lol.

[SAxDrc]

hole 1 at Lawrence tech (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=4120&mode=ci) is 60'. I haven't played though, just read a review.

[prerube]

in another thread we are discussing short holes.
What is the shortest hole you have ever played.

I have found some in the 130's, but I can not recall any holes under 100ft.

since posting this I have played entire courses under 100 feet per hole.

Mars Bluff, Sun N Fun, South Bradenton, Tiki, Venice....

[snappyfingers]

I am indeed putting from a lie that happened to land on a nearby teepad.



FYI lol.



I don't care enough to dig up the picture, but hole 3 at Conejo Valley YMCA is pretty pathetic. Probably 50 feet or so.

Conejo Valley is probably the worlds shortest course:

[sillybizz]

That looks like the course to use to break the most holed played in 24 hours record.

I felt so bad when a dude on our card got a 3 on this hole.

:doh:

[ejlopez]

shortest COURSE all under 130's maybe but it was confusing no signs at all and no direction of which hole goes to which and not sure if it's a private course?? lol but go to maps.google.com and type in e queen creek rd and s sossaman rd arizona..only 3 blocks long and not even a block wide..on the southeast side...

[apdrvya]

That looks like the course to use to break the most holed played in 24 hours record.

something tells me that there would be no baskets or chains left if that record was attempted... those chains look plastic at best/cardboard at worst.

This is my home course. Its the first hole my two youngest boys ever deuced. This is also the hole that is featured in the Innova calendar April 2011. Its 118'. I've aced this a couple of times...onced with a Superhero.

[hangwind]

Playing at least once a week like religion for a couple of years now and still no ace. I am getting close to scratch play (moving backwards due to re-learning to drive BH) and haven't even metaled yet. I read a lot of guys here with numerous aces...

Then I see this thread and now I know why.

I think if I played pitch and putts and threw one in, I would be happy but quiet about it.

Not being a "man" it would be a empty thing.

Like ball golf, in my lifetime, if I nail one or two, I am good. And my level of play is good.

When it is hot and (100 + degrees here for 100 + days) I am going through the motions, I give up and work on new things. May even try rollers one day (eff carts)

Where was I going with this, oh.

Short courses not my idea of rel disc golf. Fun but not a high level of play.

It is important to keep...

Nevermind.

[Sadjo]

Yeah...I hear ya...

I run tournaments at Sertoma and there is yet to be an ace in tournament play at that course. So it may be short but its not like all the top players are nailing aces everytime they play.

[hangwind]

I played a short course the other day, wasn't trying very hard and was one over. As far as a score goes, this was my best but I didn't learn very much from it.

Not much of a challenge, I should have one disced it.

I think this is a good topic though...

[Danger]

Haven't repped Conejo in a while, here:

Rycenga Park in Spring Lake, MI is a fun little pitch and putt through the woods.... only two holes over 300feet, and one is a 6' wide fairway that snakes through the forest... aweful hole...
anyway, look it up.

[Mr Mirth]

I think this may be the shortest hole I've ever played:

GL XXX, thumber, 90 degree flip so it lands upside-down 40' ahead of the tee, 3 long skips, nothing but chains?

Gold Island Disc Park (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=2066&mode=hi) in Vancouver BC looks like it's got some incredibly cool rock terrain, with 5 really short holes too:
1. 108'
4. 112'
5. 102'
11. 102'
12. 112'
15. 98'

One of the most fun short courses I've played, excellent use of terrain! It may be the best super class layout I've found.

Hole 3 at Oxford Circle Park in Davis, CA.

[mashnut]

Hole 18 at Riggs Park in Wisconsin is 114' down an 8' wide low ceiling tunnel of trees. It's a weird contrast to the rest of the course since the other 17 holes don't have a single tree in play.
