Yardage between White & Yellow (& Red) Tees

Was looking the the difference playing off the two tees at local place (as per measures on scorecard)
The whites add 768 yrds to the yellow course and SSS up 3 to 72 (or you can look at it vice versa)
Makes it an entirely different course to play
To include the ladies into the thread the reds are 772 yards in front of the yellow with an SSS 2 over the yellow at 71
Incidentally there's a Black (back tee) that adds a whopping 1,422 yrds onto the distance off the yellow with another 3 added to SSS (now up to 75) (now a silly season course)
The course I used to play you'd be lucky to see 10 yards a hole between white & yellow & often both would be located on the same tee box
