Great Drives

Minnesota Golfer magazine has featured Great Drive holes for more than two decades. The criteria is simple: the hole must represent a fair challenge in course management and shot execution, and the golf course must be a member club of the MGA. Par fours, par fives and exceptional par three are eligible. Nominate a worthy golf hole at your favorite course today. Submit one yourself!

Below is a list of Great Drive holes as featured in the Minnesota Golfer.
