Short to mid length, well guarded par 3's are my favorite. I hate par 3's that are tough just because they require a hybrid or wood off the tee. Anything from 140-170 yards is my preference.
Favorite Par 3 Length?
If my MD5 Gap is on fire that's the number, somewhere between 125 & 135 at sea level, here in Colorado I'd say my best chance therfore best yardage would be 145-155 for my PW

Around 140 yards. All my hole-in-ones have come at that approximate length. [second choice would be 220+ yards. No club choice for me, just whack a driver and hope)

Feel like I answered this already but I love 140-155 yard par 3
This season, I would have to say 130-150.

I don't have a favorite length. I like the challenge of a good par 3 and those come at different lengths. Island greens can be fun. A hole well protected with water and bunkers. One with undulations that you can use if you put it in the right spot. Stuff like that.
love me a good 9i ish par 3 so like 145-155 yards.

My Shot Scope data says between 160 - 180 yds is my sweet spot.
150
150-160 is my sweet spot, par 3s in that range are usually a GIR for me.

I’d say something that would put between a 9 and 6 iron in my hands. Certainly don’t want something so short I have less than a full swing in and not something too long I have to take a fairway wood.
