Hole #4
Pin Position A:298 ft (4)
Pin Position B:435 ft (4)

Pin Position C:498 ft (4)

TEE:

the last review from The Valkyrie Kid says " I would never guess that a course the caliber of Middle Park DGC would not have a # 4 pad."
and Loomis says "...walk 100 feet left of the basket and INVENT the tee pad for HOLE 4. Throw to the basket you can see along the same side of the creek. It's a bomber depending on where you put the pad."
so i guess there's no pad now, clearly visible in this pic, wonder how does a concrete pad disappear?

Maybe this isn't hole 4?

I'm playing longs. RHFH hyzer flip with Z Crank. Will probably end up in the trees on the left side and give me a chance to show off my get out of trouble game...

oh I got it, they redesigned it in 2014 so this is the course map now with hole #4 being 385ft on the other side of the creek in the pic.
I say we play with what is pictured going to 498ft.

i'm going full power with either a boss, quasar, or octane.

This use to be a good hole, but they redesigned the course for better flow. This fairway is now used for hole 6 going in the opposite direction as shown.

As shown:
Boss rhfh
Pure
Yeti Aviar

Lace.... figure out the rest based on how well I execute of the tee.

Played here summer 2015... the map Chevis linked here, is correct:

Thought it was very good course, but nothing epic. Nice mix of getting to stretch your arm out and some interesting woods holes. Lost an R Pro Boss in the water on #10.

The new 6 is a much better hole, in my opinion. OB both sides, fareway sloping the right.

Based on that video, I guess I would throw an Outlaw off the tee.

Ya'll fellas are crazy. Looking at the map and the picture, the fairway is only about 60' wide between the road and the creek. Tight fairway to thread going for max distance with a driver...

I'd stick to a S-FD to avoid the OB.
