People, especially 30-50 year olds, generally play off the wrong tees. It's not about how far you can hit it when everything goes right.
Reluctance to be different screws it up too. Me included. I often end up playing blue when I'm white based on handicap and typical distance off the tee. That said, it's mostly a fault of my usual partners who should also be off whites (they are better than me but not by that much).
