The Grinder Of Pars (Semi Crocked)
If the Powers that Be are serious about getting youngsters into the game, this is where they need to be looking.
Kids can't play on the full course, they don't hit the ball far enough to carry hazards and there can't be much fun taking 10 on a par 4 simply because you can't hit the ball more than 7& yards.
Produce short par 3 courses, get the kids playing on them and get them to fall in love with the game.
Then, when they're bigger and stronger, they can graduate to the full course....
Simples!
