FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about Roadside

Get answers to common questions about playing Roadside and what to expect.

How difficult is Roadside for mid-handicap golfers?

Players often find Roadside technically exacting. The 120 slope rating keeps it accessible for developing players. The course rating of 70 reflects on scoring relative to par 35.

What tees should a 15 handicap play at Roadside?

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 Roadside?

With a course rating of 70 and par 35, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 35 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.

How long is Roadside and how does yardage affect play?

At a full length of 6500 yards, it balances distance with positional strategy.

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

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.

What features make Roadside 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.
