FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing Blue Hills Golf Club and what to expect.
From a scoring perspective, Blue Hills Golf Club challenges consistency. The 126.0 slope rating keeps it accessible for developing players. The course rating of 70.6 reflects on scoring relative to par 71.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 4936 yards. The back tees extend to 6453.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
With a course rating of 70.6 and par 71, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 71 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.
At a full length of 6453.0 yards, it balances distance with positional strategy.
Architecturally, it reflects a Parkland style. Overall, the setup will reward players who place the ball in safe positions far from hazards. Also, type of shot is more crucial rather than just trying to gain distance.
The combination of a slope rating of 126.0 and yardage reaching 6453.0 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
