If the words “championship golf” make you tense up, a pitch-and-putt course is the cure. A pitch-and-putt is a short course built around the most enjoyable part of the game — the scoring shots. Holes are short, the round is quick, and the intimidation factor is close to zero.
Because every hole rewards a clever short shot rather than a 300-yard drive, a pitch-and-putt levels the field. Beginners, juniors, and seasoned players all tee it up on the same terms, and a round takes a fraction of the time of a full eighteen. It’s golf distilled to its most social, most playable form.
At Strawgrass, our eighteen-hole layout runs to a tidy par 63, walks in under two hours, and still manages to test the best players who visit. It’s proof that you don’t need length to have a course worth talking about — you need imagination, and a green or two perched on the edge of a lake.
