What is considered a good score at En Route 57?

With a course rating of 70 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.

What type of course is En Route 57 and how should I play it?
