Hole 11 at Las Colinas Country Club
Par 3 • 194 Yards • Irving, Texas
The 11th hole at Las Colinas Country Club presents a deceptively challenging par 3 that demands precision over power. At 194 yards, this straight shot requires golfers to navigate to a small, well-protected green that punishes anything less than accurate iron play. The absence of major hazards might suggest an easier approach, but the compact target and strategic pin positions create their own intimidation factor. Club selection becomes critical as the small green offers little margin for error, rewarding those who commit fully to their yardage and swing with confidence. This hole epitomizes the strategic design philosophy that makes Las Colinas a respected test of golf in the Dallas area, where course management trumps raw distance.
