FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing Churston and what to expect.
Churston presents a demanding test. This slope level makes it manageable compared to championship venues. The course rating of 70.7 reflects on scoring relative to par 70.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 5960 yards. The back tees extend to 6265.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
With a course rating of 70.7 and par 70, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 70 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.
Stretching to 6265.0 yards from the back tees, distance is less of a barrier than precision.
The course follows a traditional Links design philosophy. 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 6265.0 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
