My course starts with a par 5 hole, which has always struck me as a bit mean, but it also finishes with one too. Does anyone else play on a course with par 5 hole first and last?

One of mine starts with one, one of only 3 on the course, it’s odd. Makes you feel like on the first hole if you don’t capitalize then you’ve cost yourself the day already.My course starts with a par 5 hole, which has always struck me as a bit mean, but it also finishes with one too.

I’ve played courses like this before.... I actually kind of love it to start, and dislike it to finish, especially on tour.My course starts with a par 5 hole, which has always struck me as a bit mean, but it also finishes with one too.

Yep. My course plays this way and both are round wreckers. The first is a blind tee shot uphill That plays tight to both the right and left (water hazard to the left and a bunker in the landing zone if you go too far right) and the last is not reachable in two by hole design unless you play AMAZING golf and can reliably work the ball high and both ways at 250+. Billy Mayfair was an investor in the re-design of the original course and he alone designed the final hole. I've come to the conclusion that Billy Mayfair is a tw*t.My course starts with a par 5 hole, which has always struck me as a bit mean, but it also finishes with one too.

I played a favorite course where the par 5s are 1/9/10/18... Creates a nice look for the tee boxes up and back as well as a picturesque view from the patio and clubhouse.My course starts with a par 5 hole, which has always struck me as a bit mean, but it also finishes with one too.

Ooft, I would be delighted to get to the 5th only 4 over!One of our area courses starts par 5(tough drive but not bad 2nd shot), 200 yard uphill par 3, 600 yard par 5, then #1 handicap par 4... its as ridiculous of a start Ive ever played.
Does not finish with a par 5 though.
