Hole 18 at fairfield is 842 feet. The longist hole in IL. The tee is elevated about 30ft then about 350 feet down the fairway there is a hill that comes back up to about the same elevation as the tee. It then plays very slightly down hill for the remaining 500 or so feet. There is no pic of 18 Here on dgcr. I'll have to fix this next time I'm there.
What? No love for McNasty's finisher? Just a tad longer!
How about 5 holes at Foundation that scream longer than Fairfield?
Yeah, whoever told you that Fairfield's #18 is the longest hole in Illinois is pulling your leg. (Still tough of course).
My favorite tough finisher is Idlewild's #18. (Not sure if it's the last last hole with the letter holes, but it was when I was there).
651' uphill, throwing out of the forest, then around or through the guardian trees.
