Match the course to the players

Skill level matters more on a trip because nobody wants to spend vacation grinding through forced carries. Look at tee choices, walking demands, green speed, and how severe normal misses become.

Low handicaps Strategy, firmness, and interesting angles
Social groups Comfortable pace and strong hospitality
