What makes Bond Head tricky
Scoring opportunities are highest on the wider par fives, provided you avoid the deep fairway bunkers.

Where most golfers lose shots at Bond Head
The most common error is underestimating the effect of the wind and elevation on ball flight, leading to lost balls in heavy fescue. Golfers often over-aggressive on downhill approaches, resulting in difficult recoveries from behind the greens. Misjudging the tiers on large putting surfaces frequently leads to three-putts.
Scoring Zone strategy for Bond Head

Bond Head rewards discipline and clear decision-making. Carry an extra club for uphill approaches to compensate for the steep grade and potential wind resistance.
