Shortest golf courses on record in New York

The 50 shortest golf courses on record in New York run from 2,512 yards at Shelter Island Country Club in Shelter Island Heights to 6,138 yards. Many are par-3 or executive layouts — short by design, made for a quick round, beginners, or practice. They are drawn from the 273 New York courses with a reliable published yardage — 41% of the 667 listed here; the median across that group is 6,547 yards. The rest carry no published yardage, so a shorter course may not appear on this list.
