We look down at LRCC from our deck and can see several holes in summer
and most of the holes when the leaves drop. It's a great boys & girls club
with no foofoo bs, or biz deals, etc. Mostly retired/semi-retired, and most
of us just landed here.

I bet your course is spectacular in the fall with the changing leaves. Enjoy it
It's good to play all the tees because it changes the course. IMO, you should try playing from the forward men's tees (Green?) regularly too. It changes the course and you might find yourself with a chance to drive a green or two which is fun (there's only one on our course but it's something I look forward too). A lot of guys won't even if they're 40 hcp'ers because of ego. My view is if you can't shoot par from the "regular" men's tees you have no excuse not to. My best from the regular tees at my club is +1, +3 from the back tees.
Our membership varies from a local billionaire to relative paupers like me
It's an old-style club with men's tee times on the weekend mornings and ladies on Tuesdays and Wednesdays
So some "foofoo bs and biz deals" but I've got a good groups of friends that I enjoy playing with.
And OT: on the eyeglasses, I wear contacts and Oakleys when I play (the sun is bright here in the Southwest)
