I have seen a lot of threads discussing course length, hole length, and what tees to play from. Granted a lot of these threads have related to the USGA’s Tee it Forward initiative. The reason for this post is my curiosity for how everyone determines what Tees to play from also when/why you should move back a set of tees?
For myself I typically play the blue tees (not necessarily the tips) I played the white tees for 3 seasons when I began playing and as my ball striking and distance improved a regular playing partner said I should be playing from further away. I wonder how true this is though when you consider I am not a scratch player and if I were hitting short clubs because I was playing closure tees I would improve my opportunities to score.
