Hole 6 at Memorial Park Golf Course
Par 4 • 443 Yards • Houston, Texas
Memorial Park Golf Course hole 6 presents a demanding 443-yard par 4 that epitomizes the strategic design of this historic Houston layout, which has hosted PGA Tour events and undergone recent renovations by Tom Doak. This straight, no-nonsense test rewards precision over power, with a generous fairway that welcomes aggressive tee shots but demands accuracy on the approach. The small green complex becomes the hole's defining challenge, requiring golfers to dial in their distance control and club selection perfectly. Without bunkers or water hazards to distract, players must focus entirely on execution, making this deceptively simple hole a true test of fundamental golf skills that separates good rounds from great ones.

Exercise extreme caution on this hole - course data shows zero fairway width at both 200 and 250 yards, indicating severe hazards or out-of-bounds that could penalize wayward shots heavily.
With no defined landing zone from the tee, precision placement is critical - consider using a shorter club for accuracy over distance to avoid the hazards that appear to line this hole.
Plan your approach carefully as the green measures 0 square feet in the data, suggesting either a severely elevated target or potential data collection issues - scout this hole during practice rounds.
The complete absence of identified bunkers combined with zero fairway measurements suggests this 443-yard par 4 may feature water hazards, dense rough, or steep terrain as primary defenses.
