Because my long game is much better than my wedge game or putting I don't really score a lot better playing up close than I do from the back tees except on those rare days when I am hitting a lot of putts or stiffing wedges, which doesn't happen very often. On days when the wind down here is blowing 30 MPH I will move up 1 tee usually. On some layouts the angles can be better from the back tee, less worry about hitting a tee shot through the fairway dogleg or whatever into trouble. Also you can have better spacing for a third shot layup on a par 5 that is well protected for example.
