It seems to me the goal is to be able to hit the greens in regulation, with a tee shot on par 3's, with your approach shot on par 4's and with your third shot on par 5's. So if you cannot reach the greens on those shots using irons you can control at the distance necessary move up to the tees which give you the opportunity to hit the greens in regulation. Then you feel like a golfer and will enjoy the game much more.
