Hi Guys,

I've been experimenting with tee height off the driver. I used to tee it fairly low and play a draw, but I found it much easier to tee it high to draw it and low to fade it . Whats your take.. ???

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Exactly what you just said, low to fade it and higher to draw it. A low tee height promotes a steeper swing, creating a fade. A higher tee height promotes a swing that goes around your body, essential for drawing the ball

Low. For now. Otherwise I balloon it into the air.

if you saw Tiger on 18 against Stenson - he tee'd it low so he could squeeze a cut onto the fairway. Last thing he wanted to do was go left!

i tee it higher for a draw but it doesn't always work!

tee it low to squeeze on down a left to right dogleg

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
