The red and black
tees, at about 313 yards, are 50 yards closer than the white
tees. From this distance even a senior citizen drive can fly
over the deep-grass hill and roll on just as a young buck drive
from the white tees. Also, the trees on the right are less
in play, so the red and black tees offer a huge advantage over the
white tees. Second-shot approaches with mid or short irons
become routine, instead of praying for a lucky bounce from the
white tee and just barely making it to the green with a
second-shot wood.
