You usually do!



Not jilted, Thanks. Just aware of too many high-handicappers who belong there but insist on playing from further back. (Oh heck--should that be farther?)

One complaint I do have about forward tees is that there are virtually never any risk-reward decisions. There's just one way to play the hole. Maybe if courses were more interesteing from the forward tees, more people would play from them?
That is just poor design practice, I think. The whole point of the forward tees is to make the golf course play the same for players with less distance off the tee. If the forward tees are placed the proper distance forward then the same hazards, etc. should be in play off the tee. Perhaps you are driving over the hazards and should think about stepping back one set of tees? I have played with several women who moved back to the senior or regular tees because they suited their length off the tee better. I played with a college girl who played off the regular tees and outdrove me consistently.
