How to score better at Easterhouse
The primary objective should be finding the correct side of the fairway to navigate mature trees and slope transitions. Since the par is 69, focus on conservative tee shots to ensure a clear line into the greens. Tree-lined fairways and positioning off the tee are critical. Being slightly out of position quickly turns simple shots into recovery situations. This is not a course where distance gives you an advantage. Most golfers would score better by focusing on control and positioning.
