I'm assuming that for 915 you mean Anderson-Dean Community Park in Harrodsburg, KY, hole 9. It looks like one of the all time greatest holes. :\

The 915 I had in mind was Kensington Toboggan #3... in honor of the USADGC taking place there this weekend.

Harmony Bends in Columbia, MO; #10 Red:
Just played this course last week and it's a beauty.
HB is a "must play, don't pass on the opportunity" course, and this was my favorite hole on the course.

Caption for this photo says "Blue Tee"... but I'm pretty confident it's actually Red because:
1) This is exactly the view I remember from the red tee.
2) White and red are not visible in front of this tee (they should be).
3) There's another line in play from the blue that isn't available on red or white, and it doesn't look like you can throw that route off this tee.
Pretty sure my son has pics from all 3 tees on his phone... will upload when I get the chance.

Actually, that was what I guessed. I was kidding.

(Aside: many of the holes that over 800 ft are likely candidates for "The Most Boring Hole in the World". Totally wide open, flat holes, without one tree or obstruction do not do it for me, especially since I don't throw that far.)

Tips for those new to this game

We welcome new people to join us in the march to the 1000 ft hole! This is a great way to get a taste for the long holes in the world.

It's actually quite easy to find and post new holes; it only takes a few minutes per hole.

Here are a few tips:

Find holes
Copy this text into Google (where LENGTH = the hole length in feet):
"Pin Position C:" LENGTH "Print scorecards"

Post holes
Use this template:

{B] ft[/B]

{URL=""]COURSE[/URL] in PLACE. Hole

----------------
Notes:
1) OK, this step is going to sound more complicated than it is. For Bold (ending with [/B]) and URL (ending with [/URL]) I can't show you the text for the template as is because it makes is format. So Replace the first bracket { with [ to make it work right. These come from clicking the icon anyway. Is that totally confusing?
2) Copy and paste the course URL in the middle of the quotes
3) For pictures [Images] make sure to open the picture, then right click and select "Address Location"

So, I may have been too detailed, but the main point is that if you make a template in Word it makes adding future holes far quicker.

PM me if you have any questions.
