Golf Tees
Golf tees are, for many, just another part of the standard golfing equipment required for a round of golf; many only use the standard plastic or wooden tee, completely unaware of the abundance of options currently available.
Huge Range of Tees
A modern golf tee comes in a variety of shapes and sizes, featuring a plethora of nuances to help you produce the perfect drive. Traditionalists will enjoy using the typecast straighten wooden tea, with a small cup on which to place the ball. These tees have been tried and tested by players over the course of more than a century of golfing competition.
Traditionally Designed
Ordinarily measuring around 2 ¾ inches in length, wooden tees have gradually been joined by a marginally cheaper plastic alternative as materials have developed. Whilst any advantages gained by using either variant may be minimal, if, that is, there is any at all, making the decision a purely personal one.
Whilst the fundamental design remains the same, barring varying lengths and girths, the primary defining feature for your tee over another player's is often found in the colouration or markings. White remains the hallmarked standard; however there are limitless options available to you. Whether you want a bold primary colour, subtle bands or even your countries colours, there is no shortage in the variety of tees available to the modern golfer.
Alternative Tee Designs
If you're looking to take a giant leap away from tradition and get something a little bit different, there is no shortage of alternatives from which to choose. Brush tipped tees, which use a bristles rather than a solid cupped base for support, are increasingly popular with amateurs and professionals alike.
Brush Tipped
We feature a range of brush tipped tees from golfing stars Justin Rose and Jon Daly; whilst Rose's tee features a circle of bristles and adjustable height, Daly's has a more unique three-pronged support. The primary selling feature for a brush tee is that it is designed to decrease resistance and aid accuracy when compared to a standard tee. Using a similar principle the PGA Tour golf tees utilise a 'crown' of rubber struts on which to support the ball, again reducing the resistance provided by a solid structure.
