FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about 2nd

Get answers to common questions about playing 2nd and what to expect.

How difficult is 2nd for mid-handicap golfers?

2nd is regarded as a strategically complex layout. This slope level makes it manageable compared to championship venues. The course rating of 70 reflects on scoring relative to par 37.

What tees should a 15 handicap play at 2nd?

A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 6000 yards. The back tees extend to 6500 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.

What is considered a good score at 2nd?

With a course rating of 70 and par 37, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 37 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.

How long is 2nd and how does yardage affect play?

Stretching to 6500 yards from the back tees, it does not overwhelm length but rewards accuracy.

What type of course is 2nd and how should I play it?

The course follows a traditional Parkland 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.

What features make 2nd strategically challenging?

The combination of a slope rating of 120 and yardage reaching 6500 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
