Pre-Round Checklist for Inverness Club

Know your average distance off the tee — budget for 13 par-4 tee shots. Check 3 par-3 yardages — pick your go-to clubs now, not on the tee. Plan hole 6 (hardest) for bogey — don't chase birdie there. Hole 8 is long — know your layup number. Arrive 45 min early — 15 range, 10 short game, 10 putting, 10 to the tee.
