Hole 16 at Las Colinas Country Club
Par 4 • 423 Yards • Irving, Texas
Las Colinas Country Club hole 16 presents a deceptively challenging par 4 that demands both precision and power from the championship tees. This straight 423-yard test features a generous fairway that invites aggressive drives, but the real challenge lies in the approach to a small, well-protected green complex. Without significant hazards cluttering the landscape, golfers might assume this hole offers respite, but the compact target requires pinpoint accuracy on the approach shot. The green's modest size punishes wayward iron shots, making course management crucial for scoring opportunities. As the second-hardest hole on the course, this strategic par 4 rewards thoughtful play over brute force, embodying the sophisticated design principles that make Las Colinas a respected Texas golf destination.

Position your tee shot between 200-220 yards to maximize your approach options, as the fairway maintains a consistent 24-yard width at both the 200 and 250-yard markers, giving you a reliable target zone.
Avoid aggressive driving beyond 250 yards as bunkers come into play at 268.9 yards - focus on accuracy over distance to stay short of these hazards.
From a 220-yard tee shot, you'll have approximately 200 yards remaining to a relatively compact green measuring 24 by 32 yards - club up and focus on center-green strategy.
Target the center of this 4,156 square foot green rather than attacking pins, as the compact size demands precision and leaves little margin for error on approach shots.
