As for the new irons, jury is out. I have played one round with them and it wasn't great to be honest. Am playing Goodwood on Friday so will give them another chance. If they don't work, stand by for a barrage of "anti-mizuno / blades make the game more difficult posts!"!

I only use one for my driver and then busted tees for everything else. I'm not fussy though. Any tee will do for me.

Tell me about it, all my new clubs arrived. Straight out on the course,

Driver- decent
Fairway- different class
Rescue- brilliant
Wedges- lovely

IRONS......shanksville :--0

I'm hoping it's just such a huge change from burner 2.0's and that I need to take things easy.
 
I'm a bit of a tee snob and will only use wooden. If I can't tee my ball up to the right height by now, I should give up the game.

I also think the plastic ones look a bit naff.
 
Not a fan of the castle tee myself. I find it a pain having to carry multiple tees in my pocket for all the different tee shots that I need on the course. I just stick with the PGA Tour bright pink low friction tees. Then just put it to the height required. Another good tip I got once is to sort of make your own castle tee using wooden ones. Basically stick it in the ground and mark it off at the correct height, then get a thin piece of whtie insulation tape around it until you get a lip. Hey presto, preset height tees without having to use castle tees.

why not just buy wooden tees with a band of colour on them? you must have more time than sense,and if you cant judge the height of the tee i'm sorry but golf is not the game for you.

?????????????????????????????? no problems here with tee height. If you read my post it says i just use standard tees and smash them into the ground at the height I need it. Doing the tape on a wooden tee is just an alternative to castle tees that I read once.

wooden tee with yellow markings (other colours available) set my height purrfectly for my driver don't normally use a tee on par 3's unless really bad divots then just find someones broken one,castle tees are for newbies in my opinion.

Yup - yellow mark on these wooden tees is perfect for me and my driver.

NO I think you have got the wrong end of the stick with putting tape on a wooden tee peg. Like some have said on here they prefer wooden tee pegs. It is not like the coloured band. The idea is that you wrap round a few layers and it creates a ridge that you push it in to a bit like the idea of a castle tee. Anyway regarding banter........ I always line myself up for that everytime I play. Last night I was out on the course in white trousers with a white belt, bright pink shirt, 35 year old with a motocaddy, GPS, bright pink shaft in my driver, pink tees.... so I already set myself up for plenty of stick......
