How to score better at Leamington and County Golf Club

The primary objective is finding the correct side of the fairway to secure an open line to the flags, as overhanging branches can easily obstruct off-centre drives. Approach shots must be measured carefully, as many greens feature steep run-offs or protective bunkering that penalises aggressive misses. Tree-lined fairways and positioning off the tee are critical. Being slightly out of position quickly turns simple shots into recovery situations.
