I agree.

People should play a tee where they can have fun. In general, I play the first tee over 6000 yards at any new course for me. At my course, I’ve played all the tees.

In general, going up a tee is worth 2 shots a side.

4 shots turns a 91 to an 87. A 83 to a 79.
It is probably more fun for most people to score better.

For plus/scratch players, I can understand wanting the challenge of the “tips.” For a 10.8 index like me, I’ll play up where I can reach par 4s with a 7 iron instead of a 5 wood, or maybe on a par 5 have a go at getting home in two.

In general, many people are playing to far back for their game. Move up, and enjoy the day!
