FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing South/West and what to expect.
South/West presents a demanding test. The 127.0 slope rating keeps it accessible for developing players. The course rating of 74.4 reflects on scoring relative to par 72.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 5416 yards. The back tees extend to 5896.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
With a course rating of 74.4 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.
At a full length of 5896.0 yards, it emphasizes accuracy and wedge play.
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.
The combination of a slope rating of 127.0 and yardage reaching 5896.0 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
