Over-attacking pins when positioned near green-side hazards often leads to unnecessary dropped shots.

Neglecting to account for subtle breaks on the greens can lead to persistent three-putts.
Scoring Zone strategy for Michelton
On a typical 400-yard par 4 at Michelton, the goal should be simple: two controlled shots. You don't need a perfect drive — you need a repeatable position that allows you to play your next shot with confidence.
Michelton rewards discipline and clear decision-making. Check the prevailing Queensland North-Easterly wind, as it significantly influences club selection on more exposed holes. Keep the ball below the hole on tiered greens to leave uphill putts, which are easier to read and pace. A conservative iron off the tee may be the smarter play on tighter corridors.
