A 2.4 could be 6 from the tips if the course rating and slope dictate it.
I’d be a lot more than a 6 from the tips. I’m an old guy and I look at my sim results and my driver average carry is 228. I play tees which if I hit a perfect drive and a perfect 3 wood I can reach the shortest par 5 in 2.

At rtj in capital hill that’s the white tees, which btw i haven’t had an eagle putt at yet. But 2 great shots I can get there and some of the par 4’s I’m still hitting driver and 5 wood.

That’s probably another aspect of breaking 80 people should consider. Play the correct tees for your game. Golf is a much more fun game when you do that. #6 on the judge I’d be hitting driver on a par 3 to an island green from the tips. Into the wind I wouldn’t even be able to reach the green on it or probably any of the par 3’s.

You could pay for the GHIN.

I think it’s less than $50 a year.

BTW, 2.4 index would be 5 strokes from tips at our course.

I’ve seen shorter carries on the quad.

I barely carry 200 most of the time.
