Re: BACK TEES VS NON-BACK TEES

I play most courses from the furthest tees but there are some that I just find a lot more boring on the furthest ones, Bro Hof Slott is a perfect example: If you play with the mod for further club distances maybe the Back tees are fun, but other than that, the back tees will just lead to mindless tee-to-green golf where the fairway hazards mostly dont come into play at all, Mid tees I found much more engaging and challenging in a more fun way. Other real courses I currently play from shorter tees are Bethpage Black (Mid), Whistling Straights (Mid), East Lake Tournament (Fwd), Congressional (Mid) and Firestone South (Mid), but the list will probably continue to grow. If anyone finds those courses unenjoyable I recommend testing them in a new light. I started out thinking playing courses from shorter tees would be pathetic since I like tough golf, but then I realized its more fun to do whats most fun. If playing on pro+classic I could understand never wanting shorter tees anywhere.

I too am curious if anyone plays from the Ladies or Junior tees normally, Im thinking there probably are at least some? I created a Junior player when Links 2003 was new with junior club distances but dont think I played it more than a couple rounds.
