Tenby Golf Club suits golfers who want to improve their scoring through better decision-making. Mid handicap players benefit most from playing conservatively, while lower handicap golfers can take advantage of scoring opportunities when they are clearly available.
The most common error is attempting to fly the ball directly to the hole on firm greens, which often results in running through the putting surface. Players also lose strokes by underestimating the depth of the pot bunkers or trying to overpower the course when the wind is up.
On a typical 400-yard par 4 at Tenby Golf Club, 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.
Tenby Golf Club rewards discipline and clear decision-making. Carry a variety of low-lofted clubs to stay under the wind and practice chipping with less lofted irons to utilise the firm terrain. Always check the wind direction before selecting a club, as it can fluctuate significantly between the dunes and the more open areas.
