Hole 15 at Memorial Park Golf Course

Par 3 • 155 Yards • Houston, Texas

Enhanced Content

Moderate

Memorial Park Golf Course hole 15 presents a deceptively challenging 155-yard par 3 that demands precision over power. This straight shot to a small green requires careful club selection, as the compact target leaves little margin for error. Despite being ranked as the 16th handicap hole, the absence of major hazards doesn't diminish the mental challenge – players must commit fully to their line and distance. The intimate green complex rewards accurate iron play while punishing anything less than committed execution. What makes this hole memorable is its pure test of ball-striking ability, where clean contact and proper yardage calculation separate confident pars from frustrating bogeys in Houston's premier municipal golf experience.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 155-yard par 3 demands precision over power - focus on club selection that gets you to the pin rather than trying to overpower the shot

hazard warning

No bunkers are recorded, but stay alert for hidden hazards or green-side trouble that may not be visible from the tee

green

Without a defined landing zone, play conservatively to the middle of the green and let your putting take over - avoid going for tight pins
