Two things about these. Consistent tee height and less damage to club (if you catch a tee right you can leave a small mark on your club). Nothing to write home about.

If you catch the plastic on the bottom of the brush tees just right you can do a lot more damage than a small mark on the face

I too have used them and dont really see any different results. Seems to me just like something more to waste money on when you can buy 50 wood tees for the price of one brush tee

For a beginner a consistent tee height (whatever it is), would be an advantage. I used them when I first started but being a hacker, I was smacking the plastic base, at times. I find Jumbo too big, the 3 Wood too tall for 3 woods, and the orange version optimal for the driver. However, you can just put some tick marks on your tees, now, and use that as a guide.

For the brush and less resistance, it works but the bristles do not last very long. when it is windy, the ball tends to fall off. They are not cost effective.

I personally like Zero Friction which lasts a lot longer.

I work at a golf course, I use the "old school" wooden tees.. I have seen the brush-t before, I figured they would be good to have cause they last a while but it sounds like I'm wrong.

I've never found anything not to like about the plain white wooden golf tees.

Just get the right length and enjoy.

I like to be able tee the ball at varying heights depending on the shot I'm wanting to hit.

I like the white marks that are left on the bottom of the club. They can tell you a bit about your swing path if you let them. They wear off or wipe off very easily.

It is comical to me to think that people spend good money on something like a "brush-tee" and expect it to change their game in some way. They'd be so much better off spending that money on a bag of shag balls to warm up with prior to their round.

I use the brush tees at the driving range. I tend to obliterate wooden tees when I drive....so if I go hit a whole bucket practicing my driver, thats basically a bag of tees. I notice absolutely no difference at all.....they are just convenient to me cause they dont break.

They last a lot longer than tees. If you break a lot of tees use the Brush-Ts.

I could see using them on the range when practicing the driver, but not on the course.

I generally break one wooden tee per driver shot, so I go through quite a few at the range. On the course I've used Stinger Tees and zero friction. I love the stinger tees (mainly for how easy they are to put even in the hardest of tee boxes). But currently I use Zero friction because they last me quite a while. Unless I try to use them for teeing up an iron real low (par3). Then I usually take the heads right off them.

How many pros are using the brush Ts? I have a friend that used a regular tee and shaved the head so that the surface was smaller causing less resistance for the ball. (my 7 year old daughter, Lauren wanted this character)

I have the zero friction tees and they just shatter into pieces every time i use one. Have more of them but a lot of people have said that plastic tees mark your clubs so have stuck with wooden ones. Large packs are very cheap on ebay.

They really shatter on you??? I don't find that possible for myself when i use them, all they do is bend on me but there still usalbe if bent back a bit.

I have to say Zero friction tees are a great way to go, major thumbs down for brush tees there awful. Can't even hit a ball off them.

Let alone put a ball on it when the bristles get worn.

The brush-T's are great on the range when driving, I use them in every practice session. I do see a lot of geriatrics using them; but in reality, no self-respecting golfer would ever pull one out on a tee box.

I found one on the range once, so i tried it. It didnt seem any different, but it flew out of the ground and i couldnt find it. Like im gonna pay 6 bucks for 3 if those if that's ever going to happen.

I've been using the zero friction tees for 2 years and my only complaint is they bend too much when the turf is hard, usually mid summer, here in upstate NY. I haven't really noticed a difference in ball flight or distance between ZF and wood tees but I'll start paying more attention and post again if I see a difference.

    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
