I love the 3rd at our place. Only miss is short. Anything from a 4i to an 8i depending on the time of year and wind direction.

Maybe it’s been mentioned before, but the 12th at Okehampton. Only 85 yds, but a wonderful hole where the tee is way higher than the green and you play over gorse. I didn’t par it.

Hard to define ‘best’.

The most renowned I’ve played would be the 10th at Moortown.


The 4th hole at a little course called Headley, just outside of Bradford has to be one of 'best' use of the local architecture though. Tee off under the railway arch, 200 yard downhill par 3 with OB down the left.

I’ve played at Gleneagles, Trump International and Royal Dornoch but this hole is still my favorite par 3 and you get to play it twice as it’s a 9 holes the photo doesn’t do it justice. Holyte is a hidden gem it’s like going back in time love the place

And one of our illustrious number wrote the course review on the website, surprised he didn't pick it himself! :)

Good question. My faves are usually shorter holes:

I’ve answered this question this week on the other thread, with completely different holes 🤣
At least I was consistent with my reasoning, just shows how many great courses and holes there are!

17th at Sawgrass.
I sit watching the Players thinking it is an easy PW and a three. :)
left it on the lip for a two

Back home it’s the second hole at Lee Park GC.
Its the only hole in one I have ever had.!
