Taylors' Par 3





About this course
Taylors' Par 3 is a short course located in Bloomington, Indiana, serving the south-central region of the state. The facility operates as a nine-hole par-3 layout, a format common in college towns and smaller communities where it provides accessible golf for beginners, families, and players looking for quick practice rounds. Bloomington's rolling terrain, characteristic of the Indiana limestone country, typically influences the topography of local courses, though specific routing details for this facility are not widely documented in major golf publications. Par-3 courses of this type generally feature holes ranging from approximately 80 to 160 yards, designed to emphasize short-iron play and putting. They serve an important role in local golf ecosystems, offering lower green fees and faster pace of play than regulation courses. In a university town like Bloomington—home to Indiana University—such facilities often attract students, recreational players, and those working on specific aspects of their game without committing to a full eighteen-hole round. The course operates within Bloomington's broader recreational landscape, which includes both public and private golf options. While Taylors' Par 3 does not host competitive tournaments or appear in national course rankings, it functions as a neighborhood amenity and practice venue. The ownership and operational history reflect the family-run character suggested by its name, though specific founding details and design attribution are not part of the widely available golf architecture record.

Getting there
The journey to Taylors' Par 3 begins at Indianapolis International Airport, roughly an hour's drive southwest through rolling central Indiana farmland that gradually gives way to the wooded limestone country surrounding Bloomington. The route follows Interstate 69 south before peeling off into the quieter roads that thread through Monroe County's forested hills and university town charm. As you near the course, the landscape softens into the kind of unhurried, tree-canopied setting that defines southern Indiana's golf hideaways - a modest, welcoming arrival to a layout that has quietly served Bloomington's golfers for generations.
