You wont see any holes with a par higher than 5
True you may not see higher than 5 but highest approved is actually par 6
Yes... they are USGA approved balls.
Par for a golf course is typically based on the length and difficulty of each hole, not the total yardage of the course. Each hole will have a designated par value, which is the expected number of strokes a skilled golfer should take to complete the hole.
Yes, these tees are approved by the USGA and R and A. So perfectly legal for use in all competitions.
The USGA updates its list of conforming balls the first of every month. Balls are added and balls are removed. The balls on the list for any given month are the only balls allowed to be used during a USGA sanctioned event for that month. Not long ago the FUZZ ball, which had the "wicked long, wicked straight " seam markings were USGA approved. The current ball, which changed the seam markings to "wicked long, super soft" is not on the current list as of October 2012. RG Naples and Cape Cod

Walt Disney World features six golf courses, each with a distinctly different character. Oak Trail has nine holes and is rated for beginners. Carts are required (except at Oak Trail) and included in fees. Palm Golf Course designed by Joe Lee is the top rated, a par 72 with a USGA 73.0 This is Disney's best course, with amazing greens, considering the volume. The signature 18th hole has an island green and has been rated as high as fourth among all holes on the PGA tour. Magnolia Golf Course also by Joe Lee, also has plenty of water par 72, USGA 73.9. The Osprey Ridge Golf Course by Tom Fazio is more modern, with large rolling mounds, absurdly huge greens, and elevated tees and greens. It's a par 72, USGA 73.9 Eagle Pines by Pete Dye will remind many golfers of the Carolinas. Dishshaped greens with water at nearly every hole and a mix of sand, straw and green fairways. Aesthetically, this course is remarkable. Par 72,USGA 72.3
It depends if it had been approved for use by either the R&A and USGA. If it is a club designed for practice only, you will not be able to use it during a competition round.
