Below is the current scorecard and the proposed scorecard, with the changes in yardage highlighted. Red denotes an increase in yardage, green a decrease in yardage.
The scorecards show:
The black tees will get longer by over 100 yards and get us near 6700 yards from the tips. Given our wind and kikuya fairways, this will be a challenge for most low handicap players.
Blue and Silver tees will see a little increase in length - 60 yards or so.
The shorter tees, white and green, will be shorter by 85 yards and 113 yards respectively. This should make the shorter tees a bit more accessible and fun for shorter hitters.
Here is a comparison of the yardages of local courses, our current course and our proposed scorecard. With the proposed changes our course length will be a bit above average for the Black, Blue, Silver and White, but below the average for the Green tees.
