Tips for Playing Lookaway Golf Club
When playing Lookaway, pay close attention to the elevation changes. Many holes play uphill or downhill, which significantly impacts club selection. Trust your caddie or use a rangefinder with slope compensation to get accurate yardages, especially on approach shots to elevated or sunken greens. The greens themselves are known for their subtle breaks and speed, so a good read and a confident stroke are essential. Given the strategic nature of Rees Jones' design, consider playing a conservative tee shot on tighter holes or those with significant hazards. Laying up to a comfortable yardage for your approach can often lead to a better score than trying to overpower the course. Also, take a moment to appreciate the natural beauty; the course is exceptionally well-integrated into its surroundings, offering picturesque views throughout your round.
