THE par six at Hamptworth Golf and Country Club has been dubbed The Beast after it was extended to 666 yards.
The club's re-worked hole was built over the winter and has a new elevated tee box.
It is the only par six at 666 yards in the world and those golfers who defy the Beast, by making a birdie, will receive a certificate.
Club owner Carl Faulds said: “Golfers love a challenge, so we extended the 16th hole last year to make it a Par six and now we’ve elevated the new tee box and launched it officially.
“Our members love it, as do societies - and visitors come many miles to take it on.
“It is a fair hole, not just relying on brute strength; the first shot is to a quite generous fairway, allowing golfers to try and get as much distance as possible."
