Thomson's Plan Intriguing.

THE par hole around 485 yards
needs lot of trapping to make it
tough enough, while the par S around
$50 yards has length enough to make
it tough.
The experts concede that a par S
hole around 485 yards should have
big putting green on the theory that if
the big hitters do take a crack at the
green on the second shot they should
have fair-sized target. But they
also claim that the longer par should
have a small green. on the further
theory that most of them will be pitch
ing for the third shot. Both these
theories are sound and work out in
practice. But par S holes generally
are nuisance to the duffer and they
don't add much to the enjoyment of
the expert. Perhaps Dave Thomson
was right when he advocated a golf
course with all par holes and not one
over 430 yards in length. Dawes ideal
course would have no par SIS and no
par IS.

something you can't say about many of

either will hit their second shots onto
