Are those course Par 4's, or event par 4's because of the length?

They are par 4s because of length/difficulty.  That's the score we expect the average player to get on that hole.  If you look at the last page of the course booklet, you will see a difficulty rating for each hole.  That's the difficulty of achieving that par based on the results of the last tournament we hosted using this layout (1 being the most difficult hole to get par on, 20 being the easiest).

Thanks for the explanation. I figured that was the intent, but wanted to make sure.
