Tees - how much?!

[Canfordhacker]

I haven't bought tees for a couple of years but running short. I just want regular wooden (bamboo?) 2 1/8 or 3 1/4 inch ones. But they are way more expensive than i remember - ~£7.50 for 120.

Am I just looking in the wrong places? I know it won't break the bank, but really?

As I've mentioned before ...I'll never, ever, ever have to buy another tee if I keep finding them at the rate I do....
You're not looking hard enough on the tee box

Have a look for the Ocean Tee ones. I was given some on here and they are great. Last for ages, unless you are a brute . Way stronger than wooden ones, in my experience.

Problem is most clubs are looking at sustainability and plastic tees have been banned.

Ocean tees are bamboo

I usually use plain white wooden tees, find them lying around everywhere.

However when the courses reopened after the first lockdown I started using a long plastic tee, because I figured it would be more durable and I wouldn’t need to pick up stray tees that other people had handled. I’ve used that tee for every practice round or casual game since, only using wooden tees for competitions (random superstition I know).

That is FOUR years. Surely that plastic tee has to be more sustainable than bamboo or another material!

More amazing that you haven't lost it to be honest.

Thanks - like the ability to select colours on these, though the fact that they add VAT after is a bummer

Eco friendly, shipped all the way from China!

Will never need to buy another tee so prices can go as high as they like

I know, right? I think it’s the ribbed design means it doesn’t fly out of the ground. It’s always waiting for me to pick it up.

Why does it look like it's carved out of an elephant's tusk or something?

It's taken a battering after 4 years.

Never thought I'd be on a golf forum discussing a faithful tee. I should give it a name really.

I found one of the white 3 inch ones with the yellow stripe..Pro-Tee?
Anyway, it has a strip of gaffa tape around it and........a nail from the top to, probably, halfway down..
I'll try and fish it out and get a picture...it's a quality piece of work that must have cost way more than the tee did originally

Doesn't look straight

How about Peg, Mana or Maria ?

I still don’t see how constantly breaking wooden tees is more sustainable that 2-3 pink castles over a year.

Technically, I recycle every time a slap one with a driver.
