What is the usga rule for minimum yards to qualify as a par 5?

Answer 1

There's no real rule. There is a traditional standard that a hole from 260-475 yards should be a par 4. Less would be a 3, more would be a 5.

None of this is too traditional because the whole concept of par is relatively new.

Answer 2

There is no set minimum length for any hole in Golf. You will find however that a par 5 is usually more than 400 yards and rarely over around 650 yards. On some courses a par 4 may be longer than a par 5 on another course.

Answer 3

each standard 18 hole 72par course has 3 par 3 holes, 3 par 5 holes and the remaining 12 holes are par 4.

Answer 4

at the shortest probably around 470 yards...
