On courses that play year round that are cold in the winter you might see a super use the outer edges of the green more often , specifically those closer to cart path on certain holes. This may mitigate some damage from frost related damage to the surface. It's been my experience the better the superintendent, the least rules as to cart traffic et al.
Always thought it best if setting was a collaborative effort between the ground maintenance department and the golf professional staff. Made for more thought and an acknowledged that this was an important daily activity. You hoped both played at least a little and gave thought on a daily basis who was on the tee sheet that day. Weather conditions also play a part in the decision , strong winds affect just how far the tees should be set on many days.
i always liked an easier set-up on the weekends, let's have some fun and shoot some low scores. Good for sales in the pub
