Hole 4 at Crestview Country Club (South Course)
Par 4 • 397 Yards • Wichita, Kansas
The fourth hole at Crestview Country Club (South Course) presents a deceptively straightforward par 4 that rewards precision over power. This 397-yard test features a straight layout that invites aggressive tee shots, but the small green demands surgical approach play. With no significant hazards to complicate strategy, golfers can focus on course management and club selection. The compact putting surface places premium emphasis on accurate iron play, making distance control paramount on the approach shot. While the hole may appear benign from the tee, the diminutive green complex transforms what looks like a scoring opportunity into a true test of accuracy, separating confident ball-strikers from those who struggle with their short irons.
