Are there par 3 courses nearby and available for you to play ?
I started playing golf at a par 3 course and still do sometimes play there. It's Golden Gate Park Golf Course, nine holes ranging from 100 to about 190 yards, a place within the confines of a large city park. This course gets lots of year round play from kids, beginners, senior men and women, low handicaps trying to sharpen their iron and wedge games, anybody wanting a relaxing 1 hour to 1.5 hour round etc..
For several reasons I think par 3 courses are one of the best type facilities the game has to offer. There should be more of them, but I guess the economics of owning/operating one does not inspire the necessary financial investment...
If you play a par 3 course please post about it here to this thread, including what you like (or don't like) about the experience.
