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

What type of course is Halliday Bay and how should I play it?

Halliday Bay 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 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.
