We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!
Thye theory is that you should be able to see red better than any other colour on green grass. I saw someone doing a study on it on TV recently and the theory is that it's something to do with our unconsciousnes apparently.
Hunting for berrys and stuff like that when we were all monkeys.
Just another piece of useless information picked up on the Discovery channel.
Not if you are green/red colour blind (the most common type I believe). I used to play with a guy who had those red rubber head covers for his irons. He could never see them if he put them on the grass!.
I usually use wooden ones that will eventually rot down but don't think that I have ever bought a tee in my life. Like golf balls, I tend to use what I find on the course. The better and softer balls are used for games, others are put into the practice bag and the Molitors and the like are left where found.
Mate of mine ran out of tees on a golfing holiday (can't remember what country), so he goes into the pro shop and asks for some long white tees.
Bloke behind the counter gives him six for his round. They are about 6" long, white wooden tees, thicker diameter than a pencil, with the top about 3/4" diameter. You could balance a football on it quite easily. He keeps one in his bag for luck, and to give us all a laugh.
Long, white and wooden. Broken, white and wooden for irons. Sadly it's a bit of a superstition.
My wife gets sick of finding them around the house/bedroom so now hides them in the bed, waiting there for me to find in a sometimes quite painful way. Now have a little bowl by my bed where I deposit tees/coins/pitchmark repairers at the end of the day..... It's full.
Try tieing a piece of string to your tee and then a small steel washer to the end of the stringyoul always find your tees near the mat been using the same one all winter......hang the washewr off the mat so you dont hit it and mark your driver...

The tees I can't find are the grey castle's - should be easy as they are big enough. Tried tying them to a yellow one but couldn't be bothered with having to untangle them so gave that up.
I got some of those cone tees to use off the mats (you can't peg through ours and the slits get channels dug under them) - they came as three tied together. First time I used them the string broke.
If Paula was lying there and I was colour blind I'd have fun using my honed sense of touch !!! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Paula in (rather her out of) a bikini.
