Even though professional golfers are hiting the ball farther, the trend for resort and traveling golfers is to add shorter courses to their travel itinerary. The result are more and more resorts and courses across the country are building short courses to magnify the overall experience. If you are not familiar, these are not your grandpa's par three's - as some have even more striking views and character than their larger counterparts.
Adding a short course to your travel itinerary allows for more holes in a day where 36 might not be feasible due to walking-only facilities, or limited daylight. Whether your looking to continue or settle your golf bets or have a leisurely round with friends or family, these courses are bucket-list worthy.
