How long is your course from the senior tees? I read an article somewhere recently that said for my average drive (more or less 200 yards, hopefully) I should be playing a course at about 5400-5500 yards. Just a few years ago 6000 yards was about right for me, but now In my group we move up on par 3's over 180, par 4's over 370, par 5's over 500.

      5600 and 5700. The par 3s are a bitch tho.

        My home course is under 6000 from the whites, but it's tight as heck. Lots of heavy woods and OB as well as uneven fairways. There's even OB on the inside of the course. It's not a course you can overpower. The advantage for the big hitter is that they can club down; they can't really go over the trees for the most part. I've always lived nearby and avoided playing it because I felt it was too punishing. I only joined because of a fantastic 2 year deal, but it really beat me up last year lol.

        KCee True, I tend to forget my heritage... unless its second breakfast.

        When people ask me what I've been up to I sometimes say "living like a 20-something, way past my expiration date". Its fitting.

          I'm 64. I'll be 65 in September when I'll retire and start playing more golf.

          32, do i get a prize!

          Sad part is i think i joined FGI when I was around 16 when I built my first Integra IV with a UST Proforce, been downhill ever since.
