Par 6

[silky4015]

Anyone know of a par 6 hole in the UK?

I know of a few courses with a hole not far from the required 660 yards and am quite surprised that there hasn't been a race to be the first.

Thanks rosecott, but I thought the yardage was 700?

Dewstow has a hole you can play as a 5 or a 6 with different tees

Not in the UK but I have played one in the States. 767 yards from the back tee, I hit driver, 3 wood, 3 wood and was level with the pin just off the green. Chipped on and 2 putted for par. Great fun but wouldn't want to play it every week.

Par 5s can go up to 720 yards but par 6s can start at 660 yards - depends, as always, on other factors.
