Sounds like you have a lot of research to do.
No matter where you go, there you are.

The longest hole is the 18th hole at Infamous Golf Course 2012. It's an 899 yard par 5. :laugh:

There's a 700 yd Par 5 on MS's Robert Trent Jones GT - Judge course.
On a real course, the shortest hole might be one of those in the Augusta Par 3s course (I LOVE that course).
Completed: Golf Club of Houston (Redstone); Banff Springs 2025 (Thompson 18 and Tunnel Mountain); Mauna Kea 2024; Royal Sydney Golf Club.
Working on another Sydney course with an eye across the ditch too.

That made me think back to the days of Bombers Tour, run by Lee Harris, co -designer of the original version for Links :scared:

The longest course is not available on Links.

I would not recommend trying to walk between holes.

I've done that drive across the Nullarbor a few times - never stopped to play a hole tho. The course was the idea of two Aussies after they'd consumed a few too many beers, which makes perfect sense to me.
