  1. Hey fellow TT members,

    Just wondering home many of you are back on grass tee boxes? My home club is preparing them this week in preparation for the 2019 comps.

    We are the end of March too. Though one course here uses grass all year round and doesn't suffer too much as long as the weather is good.
  6. We are on grass but pulled well forward so not at comp yardage yet
  7. How do you find the difference in yards from forward to comp days? Much in it?
  8. About 250 yards in total
    Allows a different club selection on approach but no run out on fairways negates the reduced yardage a bit
    We have only had the course closed for 4 days over the winter so I would never complain
    That is a very mild winter in North East England’s!,

    We played off grass all through the winter, just to the side of the normal tees.
    I still think we should be off mats on par 3s as the tees get wrecked with it being soft.

    Been off the grass all year from every tee box.

    I hate teeing on a mat especially with the driver.
  12. Green Committee notes from my club notes that 1st April is designated for the move back to summer tees.

    We are on grass all year. Winter tees are forward to preserve main parts of tee boxes though. Should be back on full course by the end of the month.

    We've been no grass also all through the winter with the exception of a mat on 1 or 2 of the par 3's.

    Grass all year...only time we have ever been on a mat is when the greenstaff performed a lot of work on one of the tee boxes

    Grass all through through winter except Par 3s - majority of greens also in play as long as it’s not frosty or really wet

    Grass most of year at our place, when it got a bit too wet a few tee's went to mats!

    We’ve only had one tee on mats in a wooded area where the tee doesn’t get much sunlight. Some other tees have been in dedicated forward winter areas but most have just been forwards on the main boxes.

    On grass tee boxes all year bar a couple of par 3s.
  23. All back on grass tee's yesterday at Fulford GC, but we were only on mats for the Par 3s
  24. I'm off the grass all year round, as long as the course is opened.
