Par is calculated by estimating the number of strokes a skilled golfer is expected to need to complete a hole. The hole’s length, difficulty, and layout are considered when assigning its par value. For example, a Par 3 usually requires one shot to reach the green and two putts. A Par 4 generally allows two shots to reach the green and two putts, while a Par 5 typically requires three shots to reach the green and two putts.
Understanding Par in Golf makes it easier for beginners to read scorecards and track their performance. The par values of all 18 holes are added together to determine the course’s total par, which is commonly 70, 71, or 72.
