Ok, we have been through high tea responses and nonsensical mixes of executive and “championship” course approaches.
As an aging middle single digit player, I have found that a mix of blue and gold tees somewhat replicates a Northern Blue course. Most mixes in the village run about 600 yards less than what we played up North.
That being said, I see too many golfers on the wrong tees. Basic guide should be:
Par 3, on green off tee,
Par 4, inside 150 off tee,
Par 5, inside 100 after 2nd shot.
As a once practitioner of the occasional 300 tee shot, loved to drag the young bucks to the forward tees and watch them struggle to make par.
Every tee is a different course. Same tees every time becomes “habit golf”, where you could go out with 5-6 clubs each time.
For what it’s worth.
