Tournies

I don't wish to sound ungrateful, as we are very spoilt, we just sit there and all these wonderful tournaments are set up ready for us to play without having to lift a finger. A lot of time is spent by people setting up these tournaments for everyone else's pleasure.
but All the tournaments these days seem to be off ladies or forward tees and are just drive the greens and lets have a birdie fest, whilst this is fun every now and again (we have Trifecta Tour for that) when trying to compete on the order of merit it does seem a bit weird that most the tournies are just birdie fests, not saying I want brutal conditions, I am probably in a minority but it is nice to try and grind out a couple under par on a tough course, not got a problem with throwing in a few different tees to mix it up a bit on different rounds, but we don't seem to play off the back pots very often.
