How to score better at The Mount Golf and Country Club

Success requires prioritising accuracy over distance off the tee to navigate the narrow corridors created by established woodland. Due to the elevation shifts throughout the property, players should carefully calculate club selection to account for uphill and downhill approaches. 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.
