Of course, those guys are old school and their quotes are still close but a bit outdated. That was before the stats showed that 2 putts was almost twice number of putts experts take within 10m.

Probably not. So what does that have to do with disc golf? Maybe blending and mixing the two separate sports together is why you're confused. Ball golf is a completely different game then disc golf. You are trying to compare bowling to basketball and that doesn't work. We already had this discussion, just page back to it if you need to revisit it again.
YAY!
But I can't take credit myself. I stole the heart of it from posts made by John Houck, Ken Climo, and Dave Dunipace on the old pdga message board.
They all agreed, and I can't think of 3 better authorities.

But as far as an actionable definition that can be put into the hands of organizers and designers i
If you really want to confuse them, also mention that they should adjust 3 feet for every 1 foot of elevation change.
tweener holes.
Very simple :clap: I would imagine that for gold level players you just add length and do the opposite for lower-ability players. Or put another way: This is where you put the "blue tees." The "am/red tees" are forward (and located with easier lines). The "gold tees" are further back and may implement more difficult lines...This would apply to the vast majority of courses meant for normal public play. Or even minor- to medium-sized tournaments.
...I'll admit it helps access penalties, gives comparable scoring for tv coverage, and helps promote courses for thier intended level but that can't compare to easy scorekeeping and sharing with everyone on the same page.
I'd add that "real par" also helps in huge tournaments when a division is split into pools in order to play different courses. It allows us watching from afar accurately judge how are favorite players are doing...
I wil say that I like the longer and harder holes too, I just play em as threes
For my area of the country par 3 is the standard. I guess I have to tell my disc golf club that they are all wrong because some guy on the internet said so.
