Tightest fairways

[Miami Scoops]

Where is the tightest/narrowest fairway that you have played?

 

[ThomasOrion]

Hole 4 Blue Ribbon is a Classic long fairway. I most recently piped a Buzzz off the Tee, then piped an F5 to park a 3 which is a birdie on that 444ft beast. - Pictures are all around the internet I'm sure, dont have any now to share.

Here it is!

It's a great hole. Sometimes a 3 or 4....othertimes a 7 or 8. OB far left too:|:|:|:|

Winter Park, Kewaunee, WI.

Frietag DGC, Forest Junction, WI.

After those two, it's really not all that close in the courses I've played. They're both tight, wooded beatdowns.

Freitag is especially brutal. 10' winding fairways on 450+ holes.

Hole E. Winter Park, WI. At least its only 200 somethin feet. 3's and 4's are salvageable.

Hole 4 BRP is easily the narrowest I have played. I usually attack it with a forehanded Z Stalker. 4 is typical, but I have three'd it on several occasions. Never deuced it yet, but it'll happen someday. Probably not, though hahaha.

Mississippi river park in St. Stephen, MN just north of St. Cloud has a mini BRP 4 signature hole. This is very very tight. Its brutal to get down the fairway cleanly but really fun hole.

Holes 4 and 5 at Shawshank in Huntsville, TX

You need to get out more. That's hole isn't all that tight, just long and straight.

The length is what makes it "tight". I see many people go OB trying to juice it up the gut. Especially on the left side.

Thank you! I appreciate that.

I am building a new course and your tip is much appreciated.

#10 I think it is, at Hornings Meadow Ridge is very tight and has a bend in it.

#8 at McCurry park is super tight.

#3 at Dretzka is a super narrow one as well.

The last 2 I meantioned are much shorter than BRP I think Hornings is similar lengths.

Basically if it's narrower than 30ft people get scared. If it's that narrow and long they will often turn into shankasauruses.

The courses at PawPaw are probably the tightest I've played. Lots of good golf there.

#3 at Dretzka is only tight for 240 or so. All but the short pin are out in the open.

When does it just become stupid and un-fun?

I wouldnt consider #3 at Dretzka tight. Its just a regular tunnel shot here in WI

I don't have pics, but there are a few holes on the back end of Stony Creek Dgc in Fredonia, WI that are crazy tight.

Once that course is fully done its going to be one of the most challenging in the state.

Camp Brook in Canaan CT, Hole 10............ looking back up that hallway to the left is the tee, 200ft away. Basket is directly to the right of the camera, out of the pic

 

[CaptainAnhyzer]

Hole 9 fairway is pretty tight also
