| Abstract/Contents: | Describes how the use of par has evolved since the beginning of golf and discusses some alternative systems that could be used instead of par. Addresses the concerns about the use of par when evaluating architectural merit and while creating and designing a golf course. Defines par as "merely a humble description, a label, a number, with regrettably far too great an influence on the game." |
