FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing Piney Point Gc and what to expect.
Players often find Piney Point Gc technically exacting. At 130.0, it provides challenge without being extreme. The course rating of 72.8 reflects on scoring relative to par 72.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 6343 yards. The back tees extend to 6672.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.

At a full length of 6672.0 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.
