The short par 3 #12 for me!

I love the looks of it!
I love the shape of the green!
I love the water!
I love the tee-shot and the putts!

I would give $5,000.- to empty a bucket from that tee and then putt them all out!

12 - Golden Bell
Seen a lot of action on that hole over the years. I'd love to get to play it myself someday.

12 is maddening, but my favorite of these options is the risk reward 13th.

Favorite hole at ANGC is 14 - no water or bunkers, just man vs land. That green is ****** amazing!

Another vote for the 12th a real heart breaker for many a pro.

I like #12 the best, too. Second favorite hole would be #13.

12 .... Lots of drama and the wind swirls must make club selection difficult. It would appear that the centre left option is normally the smart play.

I like #13. While I agree that #12 is probably the most famous hole at Augusta, I like #13 because of the risk/reward option.

Azalea

No. 13-- Azalea. Awesome par 5; maybe the best ever. Rae's creek on the left; forced draw off the tee. Risk/reward approach with the trademark Augusta National azaleas framing the green. I love to see the pros go for it with a serious club in their hands.

Voted for Azalea #13. although i agree with #12 being one the prettiest little par threes out there. I always look forward to #13 because anything can happen. You can either see numerous eagle attempts but u always get the occasional crash and burn when players just cant seem to stay out of that little creek.

13 - has the best risk reward drama - trouble left off the tee, 2nd cut if too far right, tough layup and brutal pin placements

Now that I give it more thought, I'm thinking more about #13. I think #12 is really aesthetically beautiful but ultimately, #13 offers the greater golf drama, IMO.
