I find that the height of the tee can also make a big difference! Higher tees can increase the launch angle which might help with certain drivers.
Exactly, Carmen! Using a high tee with the driver has worked wonders for me. It’s like unleashing extra distance!
Do any of you use adjustable tees? I’ve seen some pros using them, but I wonder if they actually make a difference in real play.
I’ve actually used adjustable tees, Leslie. I appreciate the ability to customize the height based on club choice, but I haven’t noticed a huge performance difference overall.

Some studies suggest that lower tees can lead to better control, but maybe that’s just what works best for certain swing styles.

That’s interesting, Gary! It’s like there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. I wonder if any pros use a mix of tees depending on their strategy for different courses.
I’ve switched tees based on course type, and it has helped me adapt my gameplay significantly. I think pros must do the same!
Coming from someone who’s played with many pros, I’ve seen them have strong preferences, often irrational ones! A good tee certainly can influence the vibe, too!
Jacob, I totally agree! Tees can be like lucky charms for some, right? It’s funny how psychology fits into equipment choices.
Lol, I can relate, Terrell! Sometimes it feels like a different tee makes you play better, even if it’s just in your head!

In the end, it seems like experimenting with different tees is key. It’s all about finding what feels best for you!
I’ve noticed that many pros use wooden tees despite the newer materials available. For amateurs, I’d recommend starting with quality wooden tees as they provide great feedback and are eco-friendly.

That’s interesting! Do you think the height of the tee makes a big difference for beginners?
Absolutely! For most beginners, a standard 2.75 to 3-inch tee works best. Taller tees can benefit those with higher swing speeds more.

Does anyone have experience with plastic tees? Are they worth trying for a casual player?
Plastic tees are durable and can last a long time, making them a solid choice for casual players. Just make sure they aren’t too rigid for your swing.
If you’re looking for something fun, try using colored tees! They might not be as traditional, but they definitely add a lively element to your game.
That’s such a cool idea! Maybe I’ll give colored tees a shot too!
I stick with biodegradable tees; it feels good to play knowing I’m doing my part for the environment. Plus, they can be just as effective!
That’s awesome! What brands do you recommend for biodegradable options?
