What tees should a 15 handicap play at Family Sports?

What is considered a good score at Family Sports?

With a course rating of 70 and par 31, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 31 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.

Measuring 6500 yards at maximum length, scoring depends more on placement than raw power.

What type of course is Family Sports and how should I play it?

Family Sports is designed as a Parkland layout. 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.
