Hole 'o the Day 7.22.10

[sidewinding]

Gently turnover with a beat TeeBird through the gap and keep it low so it won't get slapped down by that limb on the left that goes up at a 45 degree angle and then across the top of the doorway.

[what'shisname]

C-PD over the top with a thumber.

Or if I'm feeling like shooting the gap.... fuse.

[jkdisc]

either teebird thru the gap or if i can get over the trees i will tomahawk a t-bone

[psudgc17]

Flick a Buzzz righty with low power just to ensure I get through the clearing. I'll take the conservative 3 on this one, considering you could turn it into a 4 quickly if you screw up the tee shot.

[shinypickle]

Stalker through the gap.

[jdggna]

Straight through...either BH Fuse or FH S-PD

First I'd like to ask what rule was broken...I'm not sure that I understand how a hole on a course can break a rule.
Secondly, I'm not sure if I can take your next post seriously. If you're serious then you must be a far better golfer than Climo, Nikko, Feldberg, Doss, etc.

The course (or each set of tees) is designed to be played/enjoyed at a certain level of skill. If not specifically done so, the PDGA has guidelines for it. Here are the three current (as far as I know) relevant documents, one of which you already found:

Assuming this course was designed for red level players, the par 4 is actually fine. It falls somewhere in the middle of light and heavy foilage, and at 275 feet that means it can be either a par 3 or par 4 according to the PDGA documents. Granted, I would have erred the other way since most/all of the trees are near the tee, but the designer chose to go the other way with it.
