I don't know but it's frustrating getting behind a foursome of men who think they have something to prove. I'd rather hit forward and have a good shot than hit back and have a lousy one.

as an ambassador at executive courses I see both men and women hitting from tees they'd be well off to ignore till they strike the ball better. If it appears that it's more men than women then one possibility is that more men play than women.
As a single digit handicap I enjoy the subtleties of executive golf and have no problem with folks playing any tees they wish. Par 3's become par 4's and 5's for others. I do wish that only taking "double par" would be enforced...it's all good.
