Does anyone use these? I've been thinking about trying them out and they come 3 to a pack so I assume they are pretty durable.

Just curious if anyone has used them and if they have experienced any plusses or minuses with them.

Thanks.

They were just ok.

The consistent tee-height is an advantage.

I found the quality to be hit or miss.

Sometimes they werent stiff enough to keep the ball teed up, other lasted several rounds.

No tee-marks on your clubs is another plus.

If you hit a fat shot, they are done.

Overall, if you get them for cheap, go for it. Otherwise, save your money.

Here's a gimmicky device that takes advantage of golfers' everending search for more distance (myself included ). This is what you will find out: the brush will bend or fray over time and can't properly hold a ball on the tee, and you probably won't notice any gain on your distance. Short answer: Waste of money.

nay, but the holder that they come in makes a great shot glass for the course!!

Nay

+1 on drgolf's post about bending. didn't notice any distance gain and after a few rounds, its tough to get a ball to stay. plus the thing is huge in your pocket.

bristles lose their strenth. Want an awsome tee? those three pronged epoch ones. As long as its warm out you should only need one or two a round, if you don't use them on par 3's. Like 6 bucks a pack that will last you a couple months. I don't know about making the ball go further, but they save alot of hassle of carrying a huge bag of tees all the time. I break a wooden tee almost every shot. Maks a bucket of balls expensive.

just don't use them in the cold, they will break.

Nay.

Gave them to the guys in my foursome a couple of years ago as my annual "tacky golf gift". They lived down to my expectations. Not a good way to spend $ in my opinion. For all the reasons listed previously.

Long way of saying "nay" with emphasis.

I got a few around christmas in My stocking from my parents. I guess they needed something else to put in there. Figured I didn't pay for them may as well try them (And it gave me 6 free issues of golfdigest :p) so I tried them out.

I used them for 2 holes and promptly when back to my Zero Friction Tees (Which are well worth the money.. no idea if they work or not, but they last for a long long long time.)

Zero friction tees are my tee of choice.

Nay.

Get some Zero Friction or Epoch tees instead.

NAY NAY NAY... terrible gimmic... just dont see a bit of difference from the wooden tee to the brush tee...lol i guess i sound like a horse... hahahah

They are best used for cleaning the grooves of your irons...

NAY x Infinity

+1

Highly uncool. Smacks of desperation too.

Nay. I tried one once. On the first stroke I took, the tee came out of the ground, spun forward, landed in some deep brush in front of the tee box, and I never found it. I could have bought two dozen run-of-the-mill wooden tees for the price of that one brush tee.

It's one thing not to be able to find a regular wooden tee that cost about eight cents. It's something else when you can't find a two dollar gizmo tee.

Big Nay!!! For unbreakable tees, I sure broke all of them pretty quickly. Zero Friction for me. If I don't lose them, they last forever.

for me, nay... if my brother in law was replying, he would say yay due to the fact that at the very least he's getting a consistent tee height... don't know how he feels on whether he has gained any distance or not.

Too strange. I see a lot of broken ones lying on the range. Plus, do you ever see a really good golfer or pro golfer using one? Those things just cannot be "game improvement" implements. As for consistent tee height, players should pay attention to what they are doing when they tee a ball up.

Nay, Nay and thrice Nay.

useful for cleaning the grooves on your clubs. as for a tee pointless

An old couple I got paired up with earlier this week had one of those. The kicker is they even had another tee like anchor with a string connecting them together. The lady would insert her brush tee into the grass and insert the anchor about 6 inches away. I had a terrible round, but watching that was pretty amusing.

Oh and another vote for epoch.

it appears that the people have spoken!

Is that a brush tee in your pocket, or are you .....


Sorry, could not resist.

I don't remember who makes them, but get your Brother in Law some of the plain wooden tees that have the colored stripe around them. He can use those to get a consistent tee height.. and well... not be using a brush tee.

thanx for the suggestion, but I think I'll let him (my brother in law) get his own tees, as I've already supplied him with so much golf equipment (you name it, I've helped him get it, either as X-Mas or B-day present or to even up money that I may have owed him), it's not even funny!

I'll be the dissenting voice. My friend, a scratch golfer who wins area tournaments, turned me on to these. Then, I found a bunch of callaway branded ones on clearance at TJ Maxx and snapped them up. They are even a bit taller than the yellow brush tees.

I've used the same one since November and it hasn't let me down yet. No magic to it, just consistent height. Plus, I now have only two golf accessories to worry about, I put one brush tee and my divot tool/marker in my pocket and I'm ready to go. A lot less messy than a bunch of tees.

I've had zero issues with the bristles wearing out or not holding the ball up, and I know I play as much or more than the great majority of posters here (180 per year +).

zero friction like the other posters mentioned, that was what I was looking for. I just don't know how they are going to make money of of those. A box will last you half the summer!

Another nay from me--like it even matters at this point. I was disappointed how quickly the bristles wear down and they don't support ball any longer.

My brother that's nine uses them and it's nice cause he tees the ball up the same height every time, he has been using the same one for 6 months.

The 3 prong ones are Zero Friction.

They are the best tees made because they take forever to break one.

I used one for part of a season a couple years back. I'd say it's best use was for hitting driver on the range. Never had to worry about busting 10 tees or looking around for where that last one flew to. The consistent height was kind of useful too I suppose. Overall though, now...I think they're ugly and sort of gimicky.

Nothing against brush tees per se, but I'd put them in the same bracket as iron covers, kilties on the shoes and scorecard holders. For geeks in other words.

I would have to say they are not even any good at cleaning the grooves.

I have played 2 rounds with the XL yellow for my driver. and the black one listed for 3 wood is a good height for my 3 wood. I don't use any of the other ones. I got them on clearance at the end of last year from Target for $1.50 a pack and sent in for my free issues of Golf world and Conde Nast. For me I know its gimmicky but for the price and "free Mag" subscriptions I'll give it a try. I have started receiving the Magazines so it made the purchase worth it to me. To be honest, They do what they are supposed to do, Hold the ball. I didn't have any issues of hitting the tee out of the ground because I didn't think your supposed to play your driver like an iron . I know they'll wear out and I would not pay regular price for them but if on clearance, i'd probably buy again. I love epoch tees also.
