After you have completed your round, you will obtain your gross score for the 18 holes by adding up the scores you received on each hole individually. A golfer of average skill should be able to complete each hole within the allotted number of shots, which is referred to as the par.

When playing a hole with a par 4, you are required to reach the green with two shots and then finish the hole with two putts. It takes a player three shots to get to the green on a par 5 and then two putts to complete the hole. Par 5s are the longest hol
