The USGA and Course Raters play an important role in the golfers’ overall enjoyment of the game. This is especially true for golfers that travel and play courses you haven’t played previously. Look over that scorecard before you hit the first tee, choose the correct yardage for your game and you’ll have more fun on the course. The PGA of America created this chart to suggest recommended course yardage based on the distance golfers hit their driver.
