Hole 13 at Las Colinas Country Club
Par 3 • 155 Yards • Irving, Texas
The shortest hole at Las Colinas Country Club hole 13 may measure just 155 yards, but this deceptively challenging par 3 demands precision over power. With the lowest handicap rating on the course, this straight shot to a small green leaves little margin for error. The absence of major hazards might seem forgiving, but the compact target requires pinpoint accuracy with your tee shot. Players must commit fully to their club selection, as the small green punishes anything less than a confident swing. What makes this hole memorable is its pure simplicity - no tricks, no bailout areas, just you, your iron, and a demanding green that rewards only the most precise approach shots.

Strategy Tips
This 155-yard par 3 requires precise club selection and accuracy. With no fairway landing area available, your tee shot must carry directly to the green or risk finding trouble.
Target the center of this generous 4,966 square foot green (31y x 30y) to give yourself the best chance for par. The large putting surface provides margin for error on your approach.
Be aware of bunkers positioned at 143.5 yards from the tee. These sand traps guard the front approach to the green, so ensure proper club selection to clear them.
With zero fairway width at both 200 and 250 yards, there's no bailout area for a conservative layup. Commit to your tee shot and aim for the green.
Since the landing zone is 0 yards from the tee, this is a true target golf hole. Focus on tempo and balance to ensure solid contact on your direct shot to the green.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your mid-iron. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
