So I'm new to the sport, I've been playing now for a little over 2 months. Took a bunch of lessons before I even stepped foot on the course itself. My worst round is a 112 and my best is a 96. I'd say I average about 100.
Here are my course details...
Championship - 6644 yds 72/133
Competitive - 6235 yds 70.3/127
Blue - 5759 yds 67.8/121
White - 5393 yds 5393 66.1/117
Forward - 5017 yds 64.6/114
and then some women and junior tees.
I realize this is already a relatively short course. My friend who i've not seen shoot better than a 105 insists on playing the blue tees, I personally always play the white tees when I go solo, but he insists those are only for seniors. I feel like it's plenty enough challenge off the white for me at this point. My average drive is only 190 as of right now and of course that's maybe 1 out of 2 times where i actually make solid contact.
Give it to me straight. Am i being a wuss and need to move back to blue or is white totally fine for my ability?
Is there any general rule of thumb that can be used going forward to pick the correct tee box...I'm headed to Florida here in a few weeks where the courses will be harder and I have no clue how to pick the appropriate tee box?
