Do female golfers take of take offense as they get an easier course?

Question

with all this equal thing

do woman find it offensive they get to tee off closer to the hole and somtimes get Par 5's instead of 4's

Answer 1

The sets of tees are rated differently for men and women.  Women may play from closer tees, but the ratings are often more difficult than the back tees for men.  So they are actually often playing a more difficult course.

Answer 2

I'm not a woman but it would make no sense at all for them to be upset.  Women want equal rights and to be treated with as much respect as men. There are some things women do better than men and some thing men do better than women.  When it comes to golfing women can play just as good a game but it so happens that they are not inherently as strong as men, so they can't drive it as far.  Other than distance, they can play all other phases just as well.

Answer 3

The sets of tees on a golf course aren't designated by gender; it's up to each individual golfer to play from whatever set of tees best suits their ability.

Answer 4

women's club speed is the difference .there swings speed is usually slower than men's .the average woman is about 65 to 75 men's is about 85 and up not many are over 100 .that's to difference .some courses rate teas by handicap which is a better system .

Answer 5

I play from the front tees because I know I can't hit the ball 200 - 300 yards like some men do. Some women can, but I am not one of them. People (men and women) should realize their abilities on the golf course and play accordingly. It will make for a much more enjoyable day for themselves and those who are playing behind them.

Answer 6

it is an option for a women to play from the front tees.  they are allowed to play from the whites, blues or blacks if they like.  typically, women are not very long hitters and enjoy shorter course.  however, i promise that lpga players arent playing the front tees and taking the short course.  they go to the back and play.  when women get good enough to move back, they do!  it is designed to help the women and to keep them enjoying the game.  it isnt fun to take 6 shots just to get to a par 4 green....so they play the hole shorter.
