Hole 7 at Crestview Country Club (North Course)
Par 4 • 456 Yards • Wichita, Kansas
The #1 handicap hole at Crestview Country Club (North Course) commands immediate respect with its imposing 456-yard length and deceptively challenging design. This straight par 4 presents golfers with a classic test of precision and power, where the absence of obvious hazards creates a false sense of security. The tee shot demands accuracy to find the optimal position in the fairway, setting up a demanding approach to a small, well-protected green complex. What makes this hole particularly treacherous is its ability to punish even slight miscalculations – the compact target requires pinpoint iron play, and the green's subtle contours can turn good shots into difficult two-putts. A true championship-caliber hole that separates the skilled from the hopeful.

Target the wider portion of the fairway at the 250-yard mark where it opens up to 36 yards wide, giving you more margin for error than the tighter 24-yard section at 200 yards.
With bunkers positioned at 378 yards from the tee, a solid drive of 250-280 yards leaves you 100-130 yards to a pin, well clear of the greenside hazards.
The large 4,708 square foot green (27x36 yards) offers multiple pin positions - aim for the center of the green to avoid short-siding yourself on approach shots.
At 456 yards, this par-4 requires precision over power - a controlled 230-250 yard drive keeps you in the optimal scoring zone while avoiding trouble.
Avoid aggressive lines that challenge the narrow 24-yard fairway width at 200 yards - the penalty for missing the short grass significantly outweighs any positional advantage.
This 456-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
