Tee Height

[Newbie_30+_HCP]

I like to have the center of the ball at the top of club face

[x-forged]

i tee it up to where the ball is peeking above the top of the driver by about a 1/4 inch.

Center of the ball at the top of the club face like most people have said, sometimes slightly lower if I am catching it a little too high in the face. I hit it pretty high anyway hence the slight lowering.

I tee it sort of high, I only hit driver when I can clear a hazard, eaisly.

If not it is usually a 3 iron off the tee

The last 2 voting options are virtually the same in your poll (unless you have a driver with a 3.5" tall face).

Tee'er high and let'er fly!!!

[DavidFehertysBike]

I do the half of the ball peeping over the crown of the driver thing. It seems to be the standard.For irons off of the tee i will still creep a little bit of the ball over the top edge, it just makes it that much easier for me to hit down on it. For a three wood, about the same as the iron for me.

Driver - Center of the ball at the top of the clubface
3wood - Tee almost all the way into the ground (which pretty much equates to Center of the ball at the top of the clubface)
Irons - Center of the ball at the center of the clubface

Tee height depends on shot shape wanted, if there is a hazard left I'll tee the ball down to top of ball at top of clubface and that will push/fade the ball right a bit . . . hazard right I'll tee the bottom of the ball at top of club face for a pull/draw, otherwise for a straight shot it's middle of ball at top of club face.

I tee it low cause I tend to slice my driver sometimes. This tip was given to me by my local pro. Tee it low if your slicing your drives....tee it up if you are hooking...center it if your not having problems

Yeah, I've always heard the opposite. Tee it low if you WANT to cut it, tee it high if you WANT to draw it...

[BASHERBAKER69]

Tee height for driver- medium for normal shot. Low if i want to hit a controlled power fade and squeeze one out!

Yes, this is what

my club pro says, at least.

[bflat450]

For a while I was hitting drives low, and cutting them and thought I was losing my control with my driver. Then I realized I was teeing it up way too low. I teed it up higher and now I'm hitting my drives fine.

[Trevor07Silvy]

I tee my ball a half a ball above the crown of the driver, sometime lower. I hit the ball high.

Well it's the opposite as others have stated.

If you tee the ball low, it will make you hit down on the ball, which means you need a out to in swing path. High makes you sweep it more.

my swing speed is about 85 and i usally carry it about 215 with a ball speed of 115 mph and my toal distance is usaly 235-240 and i tee it up with the center of the ball at the top of my club

If you carry it 215, your swing speed is probably higher than 85 mph...

I tee it pretty low, because for whatever reason I will sky the shit out of it if it's tee'd up higher. I usually have about 1/5th of the ball above my club face for the best contact.. I have trouble at the range finding a tee short enough for me... My usual drives are anywhere between 260-280 with occasional 300+ if I get good roll and have some tail wind and hit it perfect.. Few and FAR between though.
