So, I was wondering the other day as I stood on the tee box looking at all the leftovers broken and scattered around.....
What kinds of tees does everyone play? And why?

I like to use composite tees for my driver and usually I look around for a short tee or even a broken one for an iron shot on a par 3. I have been using the same composite tee for about a year.

Whatever I have in the bag or can grab at the first tee for free if it's a tournament.

Zero Friction tees for the driver and short wood for irons.

It takes a pretty good licking to break a zero friction tee. I think I'm on my second bag in like 3 years. I've probably given most of those away though.

Whatever is in the dish by the starter

p.s. remember corn tees that disintegrated after a week - that was a fast fad

It may be crazy but there are some pretty old spalding tees i think kicking around and they have slightly thicker tops but there short tees, and i seem to pound the ball on them lol. Im pretty sure its a mental thing

I like Zero Friction too, not because I think the ball goes further but because they're nearly unbreakable. I can put a couple in my pocket at the start of the round and most likely put them back at the end. Sometimes one get's bent, lol, hardly ever broken though.

I like to get plain tees (no paint) as long as possible. The painted ones end up leaving streaks on the bottom of the head.

I absolutely despise those composite tees with the three prongs.

Epoch 3.25" for driver, and 1.5" for everything else. I lose more than I break, and if I don't lose them, they last for quite a few rounds.

The exploding kind. They add a couple of degrees to my launch angle.

I like white wooden tees so it marks up the sole to confirm bad shots.

Epoch for the driver, random broken tees on the tee box for everything else. Each epoch tee is lasting me at least 3-4 months so I don't think I'll ever need to buy tees ever again.

I like stinger tees, however cant afford to keep buying them, so I use the ones the course I work at gives out free. I always try not to use broken tees or leftover tees on the teebox. Seems like I always screw up the shot with those tees that belong to someone else, i know its all mental, but it has a big effect.

Zero Friction for driver and broken tees I find lying around for 3 wood and irons.

white woodin tees only

I tried out the Brush tees for the driver and 3 wood. They look silly when you're standing behind the ball, but I've never hit the ball further and straighter. I had a couple of drives this past weekend that went over 300 yds. Some of the courses I play aren't exactly what I would call soft. So the composites tees bend before I even get them in the ground and if I do, the ball won't stay on them.

I usually grab a handful of the free tees from our proshop every now and then when my bag is getting low.
Haven't paid for a tee in a LONG time!

Zero Friction for driver and 3 wood. Like others have said, it's not that I really think it affects how long or straight I hit it, but as long as you don't lose them they last forever. I bought a box of them over 2 years ago and I still have a handful left. Granted I've only played 5 rounds so far this year, but I've literally used the same tee the whole time so far.

For irons and hybrids, I just look for half broken tees laying on the tee box.

The best price I have found for the plain jane white 2 3/4 and 3 1/4 wooden tees I like are the large count "First Tee" sponsored ones that Wally World sells.

Now??? Knowing how Walmart plays ball I wouldn't be surprised if they make those poor little kids at First Tee pay them for allowing their name to grace the packaging.

Cheers,
Brad

I like natural wood tees for driver and I use whatever I find on the tee box when I hit irons.

My home course has those white tees with a yellow band on them. By the amount of yellow I can see above the grass, I can tee the ball to the same height each time. Achieving consistent tee height is the only reason I care about a tee. I, personally, don't care about the material, friction, etc.

i'll use anything. i don't like the extra long tees i see everywhere as they just break when you look at them funny.....and there are tons of broken tee ends sticking in the ground afterward. i'm happy to use a broken tee if it's got enough length, especially on par threes or holes where i'm using my 3 wood.

orange is my color so I use orange zero friction tees with my driver. When I'm on par 3's I always use a broken tee that's lying on the tee box.

white...wood tees only..the zero friction dont break but the prongs get bent then it becomes a pain to put the ball on the tee

I use Epoch as well and I gained 2 mph of ball speed off the driver with this tee!! Launch monitor verified. I also feel like I can move the ball better off these tees!! They are earth friendly as well!!!

+1

I bought a 50 pack of Zero Frictions 2 years ago and still have at least 30 left.

I bought a pack of Epoch and Zero Friction tees in December. I have yet to open the ZF tee pack and have only used a few Epoch tees. I only went through more than 1 Epoch tee just because and gave away a few. Love em!

Natural wood 3.25" for driver and shorter natural wood for 3 wood. Broken natural wood found on the tee box for irons and hybrids. I hate white tees due to the white residue on the sole of the club.

Epoch.

Zero Friction is good, but I got tired of the balancing act.

Has anyone tried Launcher Tees? I got a hold of a few last year and really like them. They are a composite material. I see now they sell them at Wal-mart, but I got mine from a friend. I have yet to break one.

I use Zero Frictions for my driver and broken wood tees that I find for hybrid and irons

I use whatever tees I happen to get into my bag one way or another. To be honest I have no idea where I get them now that I'm thinking about it, I know I've never bought a tee. I think I must load up on the first tee of tournament play or something.

I usually use broken ones laying around the tee box if I'm hitting anything less than driver.

Well...I like straight up standard tees, wooden ones or the white ones.

I hate Zero Friction tees because the prongs don't hold the ball well and I use my driver head to align the ball line down to where I'm aiming so the ball gets knocked over easy on those ZF tees. and windy days make these tees HORRIBLE

I do like you epoch tees since they are pretty durable and they hold the ball well

+2...

I thinnk of the pack or orange ones i bought, (orange so i can find them better) i have only broken one or two but they do seem to go missing from time to time LOL... So anyone that thinks buying the cheapest wooden tees is a deal do the math on two years with with same 25 teas and probably still have about 12-15 left.

+ 3 zero friction are the best tees ever I won some 4 more yards tees in a raffle pretty much like a ultra durable zero friction tee they work well too.

For some reason, I break the Zero Frictions - usually one per round.

These days, I just buy the 500 pack of wooden tees that they have at GolfSmith. On par 3's I just find one in the ground.

I use the wooden 2 3/4 inch pro tees. I mark them with a sharpie so I get them at the same depth all the time for the driver. For par 3s I just find a broken tee laying around. I've tried the zero friction, but they bend if the ground's hard and sometimes it's hard to get the ball to stay on.

Same here. I've only bought tees once...two bigs scoops of natural wooden tees from a bin at Nevada Bob's back in 1989...I'll still trying to burn through that bag.

I use zero friction tees. I have been using the same tee for my driver for about 10 months now. I found it last summer on a tee box and have used the same one since. I bought a 35 pack for when my tee breaks or gets lost, so I figure I am set on tees for the next couple of decades.

I buy THESE just for that reason...already marked. I use the 3 1/4" version (blue) for driver, and a bag of shorter wood tees for par 3's or if I need to hit something less than driver off the tee.

I like the plain white wood tees if it is my money, or whatever I can get free.

I have had soem Zero Friction tees, they are fine tees uless the ground is hard or frozen, then they bend when trying get them in the ground, and btw, if you really think they make the ball go farther, I have some cyber space I would like to sell you.

earl grey and green tee! really?

BRIGHT ORANGE!!!

i like using the white ones with the yellow band on them i think theyre called prolength we get them for free at most tourneys they help tee the ball up at he same height and they never brake

I use Evolve Epoch Performance tees- actually able to go through a round using only 2 or 3 tess, they just don't break that easy!

Anyone use or have tried Consistent Tees? They're the ones with a ring about mid-way on the tee.

I like natural unfinished tees. The long ones for the driver, the regular 2.75 for the 3 wood and I prefer to find a broken natural tee on the box for my iron shots.

zero friction orange for driver stinger shortys for everything else.

I use white wooden tees only.

I use a 75mm Yellow Plastic step tee for driver. 20mm in Ground, 55mm out.
I use a 30mm Red Plastic step tee for hybrids. 20mm in Ground, 10mm out.
And I use a normal wooden tee for Irons, or if I'm lazy I'll just press the Red tee used above in a bit further.

Might have to give these Epoch tee's a go. They seem popular around here!
