Just curious. I buy 2-3/4" Tees. For Par 3 Holes and narrow fairways, when I hit 3W, Hybrid, or Irons, I pick up broken Tees in the Teebox. Sometimes the ground in the Teeboxes is so hard, you can't push a long Tee down far enough. Anybody else do that, or do you carry two different size Tees? Re: My Signature Line, I like to keep it simple.

Two different sizes: 2-3/4" for my driver and the old standard tee (was it 1-1/2" or 1-5/8"?) for hitting other clubs off the. I used to use broken tees when they were long enough, but now, I have an excess of the shorter tees having bought the longer tees for my driver. It will probably be 5-10 years before I have to buy more tees.

You mentioned it is hard to push down the longer tees. I have that problem with the Zero-friction tees as they will bend if the ground is hard. If this happens on the first hole, then the zero-friction tees go back into the bag, and I use wood tees the rest of the way.

2 1/8". Yup, reading your post tells me the situation is common. Never buy Zero -Friction Tees for the very reason you mentioned. I use Pride Pro Length.

I just recently started using Brush T. Yeah I lost some cool points. Whatever, my bros still love me. Anyway, I like them and I have been comfortable enough to use them in tournaments.

You can get them 4 different sizes- 0.9, 2.2”, 2.4” and a XL-T, 3-1/8”. I still use a standard wood tee for 3/5 wood and iron play off the boxes.

Anyway thought you might, if you haven't already like to see some options. BTW, they are USGA approved.

I carry three sizes. Tall ones for my driver, short ones for my woods and mid-long irons, and stubby ones for my short irons. I used to just use broken tees I found laying around for my irons, but being the only one in a 100 mile radius that uses wooden tees, it's hard to find broken tees.

Yup, my Son who lives in Colorado uses them and loves them, citing same constant Tee Height for every drive. He gave me one and it works very well. It just took me forever to get the ball placed on them so that they didn't fall off. He always puts the Tee back in the little storage cylinder after he hits his Teeshot. Uhhh........Too much fidgiting for me. I like to hit it, grab it, (If it didn't break), and scoot!

I use 2 3/4" for my driver, and I just pick up broken tees for all the other clubs in the bag. It keeps it simple, and there are always plenty of broken tees around.

If you want a constant height but don't want to mess w/ the brush tee you could always use the step tee. I don't actually use them but I'm surprised more people don't.

I carry two lengths. The 2 1/8" for the irons/woods off the tee. Then the blue Pride Pro Length (3 1/4" I think) for the driver.

Not to threadjack, but other than just throwing them in a pocket in your bag, does anyone have any good ideas for storing them? I like to have easy access to the tee's in my bag during the round so they're not jabbing me through my pocket. I currently just keep them in their OEM bags in a side pocket, but didn't know if anyone had any better ideas/systems.

Many bags now have those tee loops that you can just push the tee in. I use them on my cart bag, but I don't have them on my carry. You can also do what I did when I was a kid, just stick it in your sock.

What? With all that wood over there in the PI? We had a home in Greenhills Rizal (Lived next door to Marcos' daughter)

I guess what I'm getting at here with this is: While I take my time to properly line up and picture my shot, check my set up, and pull the trigger with a nice tempo swing, I like to move quickly and orderly on the course, and a big part of that is having only what you need in your bag, (No Junk), and being able to access everything fast. The analogy would be..........Did you ever watch women in the Supermarket with those pocketbooks as big as a "Dumpster", trying to get their money out to pay for something that took the clerk 15 seconds to scan? And always in the Express Aisle! That type of behaviour frustrates me on the Golf Course also.

You could clip something like the item in the link above to your beltloop. Looks small enough that it wouldn't get in the way flopping around too much.

Most folks now use the plastic tees. Wooden tees cost a lot more here than they do in the States. If you remember, due to the "National Emergency" of the rain forests here, logging isn't as allowed as it once was. As far as pace of play, I don't waste time at all on the tee, and I don't have to fidget at all, especially with my tees. Read my post above on tee storage. Everything is reachable and quick if I don't have the proper tee in my pocket. Looking around the tee for a broken one takes more time than just using one that's on me. Trust me, I've tried.

What kind of plastic tees do they use in the Phillipines?

Not sure. Most of them have Japanese or Korean writing on the side of the package. Cost about a quarter of what the same amount of wooden tees cost. Need pictures?
