Started playing the 2.75" zero friction tees this season. I like them and have noticed a slightly tighter shot dispersion. Not a lot, but enough to notice.

2 3/4". I don't care about the brand or anything. I tee up pretty low, so I can use as little as a 2 1/4", but I don't prefer it.

I've tried many varities of tees, but nothing really seems to be so problem free as 2 3/4 wooden tees. With the expensive new plastic ones from Callaway, I'm worried about trying to find them. The brush tees have problems with getting the ball to sit right, plastic tees also are touchy in getting the ball to sit, and they offer more resistance.

So hit the ball, and don't worry about where the tee is, that's the best.

Used to only use the "standard" size white tees.

I still mainly use those.

My driver gets teed up just enough to put the ball's equator at the top of the clubhead....not very high by todays standards.

I imagine the I'll have to go with taller tees once I replace my driver with a more modern offering.

2 1/4°"
Not sure that I have a reason for this....other than I feel I'll break less of the shorter tees.

All dependent on the turf conditions of the tee box. I use anything I find...but generally 2-3/4" to 3"...and has to be wooden and not plastic (will dent and mar your drivers)

I don't think about the length of the tee...rather placement to where 1/4 of the ball is above the crown for my driver....and 1/8" above turf line for all other tee shots. Want consistency of the ball to the club face.

i use a 5 7/19" this season as opposed to the 5 6/19" i used during the winter due to the grass growing a fraction of an inch.

tees are a waste of money

Currently, I use 2¾ Professional Tee Systems tees. I really like them as I put them in the ground up to the painted yellow line and it seems to put half the ball over the head and half just right. Reading though, my driver is 460cc and it recommends 4" tees. Anyone know why that is?

I might try out the 3¼ so I can get more tee in the ground and have a sturdier base for my ball.

      That makes more sense thanks.  I'll give it a go.  That other video really helps.  Will post another video once I practice it a bit and appreciate the help as always.

      Day 25: range and putting session. Worked about an hour at the range. Filmed a bit - think some progress but need more. Then went and worked on putts within 10 feet for about 20 minutes.

      Day 45 (22 Apr 26) - good friend wanted to play the Weds shootout. Glad we did as I had the most consistent round in a while - 38/41 for a 79 (first sub 80 in months): 27 putts, 9 pars (7 were up and down 1 putts), 8 bogies, 1 birdie and 0 dbls or worse!  This is the 1st full round where I’ve not had at least one dbl (or worse) and 0 penalties.  I also came 1 hole from having “no sixes” (bogied the par five 16th).  All the drills came together today for a solid round.

      Day 568 - 2026-04-22 Created a 33-minute playlist and paused it while I stopped. I mostly did some backswing and a little downswing work with the mirror. This got me most of the way through the playlist, so then I chopped for a good 15 or 20 minutes.
