Par 3 • 173 Yards • Arlington, Texas

Enhanced Content

Challenging

The 11th hole at Texas Rangers Golf Club presents a deceptively challenging par 3 that demands precision over power. At 173 yards, this straight-forward hole appears straightforward from the tee, but the small green complex creates a demanding target that rewards accurate iron play. With minimal hazards to distract, golfers must focus entirely on distance control and pin placement, as the compact putting surface leaves little room for error. The elevated tee shot provides excellent visibility of the target, yet the green's subtle contours can quickly turn a well-struck approach into a challenging two-putt. This hole exemplifies how simplicity in design can create memorable golf strategy moments.

Target the center of this generous 6,759 square foot green (38y x 34y) rather than pin-hunting - the large putting surface gives you room for error and better birdie chances.
