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

    • What brand is it? Are there actually items you can't buy online? If you want the Chinese stuff. I'd look closer to home first, even if they are also made in China. Some of the Temu stuff is stupid cheap and I'm not buying it.
    • For anyone in Europe, it seems they still got grips in stock here:  Puregrips   I may just order some myself. Having used only the Pure Pros I'm tempted to order DTX.
    • Day 323: another light day. Just putted on my mat for a bit. Working on start line and a good stroke. 
    • Day 143 - Made some swings working on shallow hands in the backswing, a good weight shift, and more hip turn in the downswing. 
    • Day 46: Really struggled today, maybe some fatigue from a long weekend with lots of yard work, family time, and two early rounds of golf. I just could not find the ball at all with full swings. Slow, fast, super slow, medium speed, it didn't matter. I was hitting all sorts of terrible shots; chunks, shanks, tops, pulls, pushes, basically every miss was a possibility. Stopped after about 20 balls and hit the mental reset and changed course to "still head" fundamental practice while making easy swings. Hit the ball well doing this. Stuck with it for about 15 balls, and then did a little pitching and chipping practice.
