Topic pretty much says it all. When did the Par 3 become so over the top kid and wife centered programming? I can always remember it being laid back and nobody wanting to win because of the bad luck associated with it.

I don’t know, but this was from 2008. Seems like it’s been this way for a while maybe it’s just broadcasted more now

I just walked the main course the last time I had a ticket on Wednesday.

The Par 3 has gotten too crowded for me.

The course can be crowded in spots, but usually you can find places that are not saturated with throngs of people.

The Par 3 is a fan friendly event, we really enjoyed it. We went in 2018, got to see Jack’s grandson make a hole in one on #9, we were about 50 feet away! We really enjoyed seeing all the family participation! Bubba Watson and his kids were great to watch. It’s not a competition anymore, if that’s what you’re wanting.

For years. They always bring family and let kids putt for them. It’s a fun time.
