Win a year's supply of tees!

[srixon 1]

Wooden tees everytime for me. Best 2 stories:

1. Played in the USA and amused my playing partners by picking up all the discarded wooden tees (there were lots). It was only after the first 9 holes that they told me the tees were free in the starters hut and I could take as many as I wanted. My quick comeback about recycling waste tees didn't alter their perception of my tightness.

2. Kept finding tees on our course that had obviously been through a pencil sharpener. Was informed it was a group of our seniors who took broken tees and sharpened them for reuse. (And I thought I was bad for picking up whole ones!)

I used to carry a pencil sharpener in my bag so that I good get a good point on a broken wooden tee when winter mats were in use.

Apparently Swinley Forest are going to be banning plastic tees too

Recently played a comp. On the first tee, I realized I'd left my box of tee's in my locker so I asked my pp if he'd lend me a tee. With a really annoying smirk, he refused
I looked in the bin and found a broken one which was long enough to hit my 3 wood. Absolutely creamed the tee shot, probably 30 yds further than I would have hit my driver !
Would love to say that I went on to trounce him but unfortunately I reverted to my normal game and lost

Most of the old guys I play with are obviously so poor they need to search the whole 3 minutes for their tees, and often I feel sorry for them I end up giving them one out of my bag.
A constant supply of replacements to help them wouldn't be a bad thing to happen

If anyone did that to me, they'd be searching for their errant shots on their own.

And the watch for 3 minute searches would be out

To offset the carbon footprint from all the bentleys and range rovers in the car park?

Apparently they have a few bar members.... rarely seen on the course but always with a drink..

Bar members....not stewards?

thanks to all who who contributed to the thread
I'm feeling generous so going to offer 4 people the tees (but reduce them to 10 boxes each which I'm hoping will still get you though a year!)
can the following forumers email me michael.harris@ti-media.com with a postal address for the tees to be sent to
Crow
Upsidedown
Lord Tyrion

Well done chaps

 

[Crow]

Great!

I don't enter for these competitions much these days as they're all for new clubs but these will be great, thanks Mike!

 

[Lord Tyrion]

I'm sure these will give me the extra 4 yards I'm apparently losing with my spikeless shoes .

I may even share some out with forum playing partners when we are meeting up next , share the love around.

Great stuff, much appreciated.
