What is pro-am basketball?
Each team is made of one amateur and one professional golfer. The professional golfer plays with no handicap as usual, but the amateur gets strokes from their handicap. The strokes are designated to the holes which correspond to the amateurs' handicap. If they get a shot on a hole and make par, that counts as one under etc. In the Pro Am at Pebble Beach, there are three rounds in each all amateurs play, then the top 25 get to play the final day. The amateurs play off forward tees, sometimes as far as 100 yards ahead of the pros.

Which tee-off should an amateur golfer with an average 90 up take?
If you are a man, simply play off the easiest men's tees. This will not only build up your confidence, but it will also not be too challenging for you, and hopefully your scores will come down. Then advance to the more difficult mens' tees and then maybe even the medal tees. If you are a woman just play off the easiest women's tees, but at my club there only one set of tees for ladies.

Are you allowed to use the forward tees when playing in a golf tournament?
No. You play off the stipulated tees on every single hole. If you play off the wrong tees or outside of the teeing ground,in matchplay there is no penalty, but your opponent may ask you to replay the shot and there is a two stroke penalty in stroke play. In stroke play you must correct your mistake before teeing off at the next hole, that is, you are effectively playing three from the tee, if you do not correct your mistake before teeing off at the next hole you are disqualified.
