Have the club requested re-rating?
Wild exaggerations are not helpful (although it does sort of confirm my suspicions about the height of the rough), but the increased risk of sloped ground towards the water is accounted for.
The model scratch golfer isn't carrying the bunker.
Seems they did, got re-rated and went down rather than up.....Have the club requested re-rating?
What is the length of the rough between fairway and water? How steep is the slope down to the water?Not really wild when it's factually correct that the fairway all feeds down to the water .. and if you are left of centre you will most likely be in the water

How far is to to the bunkers/dogleg?

So the model bogey will be laying up short of the bunkers.By the looks of hole 19 off the whites it's 250 to carry it 240 to it
Like I said if you don't hit the ball right side of fairway you will collect towards the water and if your left side of fairway it will roll down into the water especially this time of year

He is a bogey player. Is he expecting to par the hole?Still risking water. Or gorse (both just outside landing zones) with a second shot over water if near bunker with 190 yards remaining .. or 200 plus if on the right with a bunker blocking the green
Bogey would be nice...He is a bogey player. Is he expecting to par the hole?
Why would he not play it strategically and settle for bogey or double?Bogey would be nice...
Trust me as a bogey golfer on that hole a 5 is an excellent score

Bogey - about 20ish, has a least 2 shots in hand. Seems about right.I do.... As a bogey player who plays it twice a week then rating for slope isn't a reflection of the difficulty faced for bogey players
Not many bogey golfers play strategically that’s why their handicaps are high.Why would he not play it strategically and settle for bogey or double?

You’re flogging a dead horse here mate.New plan to get cut is just go top meadow and hit 93 a few times.. easy. Last time I played I just finished nights and walked off with 95
That will get me off 18
Ridiculous system
Or just go the shire and hit 98
