Previously we discussed the long one shotters of our courses... Now let's turn to the other extreme and regard the very short ones -- the Tiny Tims as I choose to call them. How short may these be? ...I would say that from115 to 125 yards the short pitch hole would be satisfactory -- provided it was guarded impressively. And this provision is of utmost importance. Unless such a green stands forth impressively, despite its Lilliputian proportions, it is utterly wasted. It should be a little David challenging the Goliaths of golf.
Tillinghast designs often have a Tiny Tim hole. Pictured below are some of them. If your home course has a Tillinghast Tiny Tim and would like to be added to this gallery, please e-mail your photos to trebus@optonline.net
