FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing Friend Country Club and what to expect.
From a scoring perspective, Friend Country Club challenges consistency. The 122.0 slope rating keeps it accessible for developing players. The course rating of 72.4 reflects on scoring relative to par 36.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 5586 yards. The back tees extend to 6670.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
With a course rating of 72.4 and par 36, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 36 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.
At a full length of 6670.0 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 122.0 and yardage reaching 6670.0 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
