What tees should a 15 handicap play at Main?

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 Main?

With a course rating of 70 and par 32, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 32 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.

Stretching to 6500 yards from the back tees, it does not overwhelm length but rewards accuracy.

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

The course follows a traditional Parkland design philosophy. 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.
