Tees

[jim8flog]

70 mm wooden ones for driving and when they break it leaves a nice length tee for all the other shots.

Not that fussed in reality whatever comes to hand in terms of plastic or wood. I like the bees tees simply because I was given two bags of them. I have a box of 1000 wooden ones that have been unopened for about 6 years since starting to use the bees tees.

Off mats I find castle tees are much more stable. I use orange/lime castle tees for iron shots and a red castle for 3 wood shots and pink castle tees for the driver.

No, I was fitted for my tees and I stick to the same ones for all shots to get maximum consistency of strike

Didn’t know you could get fitted for tees!! Or was that a joke. I’d believe it in this current golfing world.

I’ve gone for custom fit, monogrammed, endangered Rosewood tees 👌

Wooden. If I break it with a drive it goes in the back pocket for the par 3's. If not I'll scavenge a broken tee to use

Wooden 70 mm for everything. Pushed in farther for irons. Any colour except natural wood.

Has to be wood and has to be white. Long for the driver and short for the irons.

Orange castles for driver, wooden ones for everything else.
Never bought a wooden tee in my life. There are millions lying around left by golfers who don't care, can't bend down or are too wealthy or lazy to care.

 

[Jamesbrown]

Pink castle for driver. Anything to nothing for irons dependant on how arsed I am.

I’ve recently made a transition to plastic as a bit of a test.
Orange 70mm for driver
Some smaller red for woods
Tiny orange ones for irons.

Also have a small’ish yellow one for a lower driver shot

Once over the stigma of plastic tees, it’s not so bad. Only need to carry a couple in the pocket...adds a few mph swing speed....

A small mound of damp sand, varying the height to suit the club.

Eh? What stigma?

Wooden
Long for driver
Very short or someone elses left behind whenusing an iron of the tee

 

[User2021]

Played a few rounds with a pro, teaching lessons.
He only used a tee for driver.
Everything else of the deck or he used the club to make a tee with turf for hybrid and the like.

No way of saying this without sound like a douche.

Off low single figures, it seems a bit of an embarrassment to be using plastic tees.

Same as using yellow balls...

 

[Kaizer_Soze]

White wooden tee for the driver, pick up broken one's for everything else, would prefer white but generally use any colour

Another polo mint user here if teeing off of winter mats (par 3's), dependant on length of hole the polo might need a bit of sucking to get it to the right length

Haha! What a load of rubbish. Fair enough mate. I'd rather buy a bag of tees that lasts 18 months rather than 18 holes.

Did use wooden tees but decided to go to plastic castle tees for consistency of height.

But given the current general concerns about plastic in the environment etc, I think I'll go back to wooden.

You could use the Bamboo ones bought at oceanteagolf.com as they are environmentally friendly.

I started to play golf on an American Forces course overseas in 1992, they had a displayed policy of wooden tees only - environmental issue. (Also soft spikes only).

Some years later in the Uk I knew a member who ordered plastic tees on line and upped his order of a packet of 12 tees to a a pack of a gross, but finger trouble determined that he ended up with 144 bags of 12 tees! Unsure how he didn't notice the price hike. I assume he's still walking off each tee box without bothering to pick up his tee peg!

I still only ever use wooden tees.
