Why 9 Holes Might Be All You Need

June 24, 2025

Short Game, Long Vibes

We all think we want a full 18. But most days? We want the feeling of golf… without the full-time commitment, blistered hands, or five-hour energy drop.

That’s where 9-hole par 3 golf shines — especially when it’s fully illuminated and built for maximum fun, like it is at Pine Royale.

The Sweet Spot Between “Let’s Play” and “Let’s Chill”

Par 3 golf keeps things tight, fast, and way more fun than you remembered. It’s real golf — just with less walking and more winning.

Perfect for:

  • New players learning the ropes (and loving it)
  • Golf snobs sneaking in a quickie before dinner
  • Night owls who believe wedges shine brightest under the lights

It’s golf that fits your life — not the other way around.

“Wait… Is This Actually Golf?”

Yes. Real golf. Real clubs. Real chances to hit a perfect tee shot and pretend you meant to.
No waiting, no pressure, and definitely no dress code enforcement.

This isn’t your grandpa’s country club — unless he’s cool, in which case he’s invited too.

Less Time Playing, More Time Hanging

Shorter rounds = more time for the good stuff:

  • Compete with friends in our TrackMan bays
  • Grab food and drinks that don’t taste like clubhouse leftovers
  • Loiter post-round with a cold drink and no regrets
  • Run it back with a second round under the lights — we’re open late

So whether you’re just getting started or just getting off work, our 9-hole, par 3, illuminated course might be your new happy place.

Come play the short game — where the fun’s anything but.
