Oh come on aren't you too old to believe in fairy stories a golf course open indeed
Knowing that all these fancy tee claims are a load of rubbish only comes with experience.
Not so long ago when I was starting out I tried all sorts of crap like brush tee's, and those clear plastic one's with the teeth at the top. What a waste of time, now use wooden ones for the driver and old bits of broken ones for irons and woods. I do have a collection of weird and wonderful tee's I've found, which is bit worrying.

I gave one a go last winter and ended up slicing my thumb open trying to drive it into the hard ground! Claret everywhere and i spoiled my nice new trousers.Never again!

Me thinks that sort of poo-poo's your OP

Maybe one of the legs has been specially coated with Teflon to provide a reduced co-efficient of friction between ball and tee and to allow the user to position the tee to help shape shots
Anyway, with the snow gone. I'll maybe see if the will still allow me to hook the ball off the 4th tee in the normal manner

I have to admit that I've never seen any advantage of these tees. I'm sticking with the wooden tees.

Yea I've got a collection of tees I've found n all. Got a pretty cool one with a hinge in it that sort of looks like a swordfish when it's extended.
Should I be worried?
I'll use the white and red zero friction tee until it breaks. I used it yesterday and I'm sure I got at least 3" on all of my tee shots

I like them as you can get bright colours and for a tight scotsman it is ideal for finding them again
Do you get any extra distance? pah I should be so lucky, but its like the powerband things, if you like them then what odds?

I must admit, I do use them, but only because they seem to break less often than wooden ones for me, and they are useful as a groove cleaner.

I used one last weekend. Hit some of my best drives, that said I used castle tees as well!! I did carry the green on our 260 par 4 9th using it.
The are a ball ache getting the ball to stay on them and then getting the correct direction for them.

They are a pain to get in especially if the ground is a bit frosty and is it just me or are they really sharp if you push them in without a ball on top to help. I found it a bit of a faff getting the ball on and can imagine it won't stay on too well in breezy conditions. Nice as a freebie and I'll use them until I break them but I think wooden ones for me

If you are playing against someone using a zero friction tee, just suggest that the ball doesn't look very secure on it. You try driving when you think the ball is about to fall off the tee.
I would mention that i would never stoop so low as to use such gamesmanship in a match.
It's like asking someone if they hold there breath whilst swinging.

Used by countless PGA Tour players on a weekly basis! Heavily used in the Remax World Long Drive Championships with the reigning World Champion, Sean 'The Beast' Fister also smashing his massive 512 yard drives using the 'Zero Friction Tees'
* The Zero Friction Golf Tee is made from a proprietary biodegradable material that is INCREDIBLY strong. This makes Zero Friction Tees considerably stronger than any other golf tee on the market.
* The principle behind the Zero Friction Tee is very simple - Less friction equals more distance! The less resistance you have between the golf ball and the golf tee, the longer and straighter the golf ball will fly.
* The Zero Friction Tee has also been designed to give a reduced spin rate. Not only does this give you more distance but it will also keep it closer to your target line by as much as 7 yards!
* Zero friction tees have so far been used for 30 professional wins!
* The reduced spin rate of the Zero Friction tees aids performance in windy conditions to give a powerful and penetrating ball flight.
* Zero Friction golf tees were used by Kenny Perry to win the 2008 Buick Open, with an average driving distance over 302 yards.
