FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing Forest Park Country Club and what to expect.
From a scoring perspective, Forest Park Country Club challenges consistency. A slope rating of 136.0 suggests a moderately demanding round. The course rating of 72.2 reflects on scoring relative to par 72.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 6001 yards. The back tees extend to 6689.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
With a course rating of 72.2 and par 72, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 72 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.
Measuring 6689.0 yards at maximum length, scoring depends more on placement than raw power.
Forest Park Country Club 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.
The combination of a slope rating of 136.0 and yardage reaching 6689.0 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
