Anyone else hate tee boxes?

[mhodar13]

Anyone else hate tee boxes that are just littered with broken tees? Played 18 with my dad Tuesday. Yesterday, I notice their is A BROKEN TEE speared through the bottom of my golf shoe, al the way through except the very pad inside. Luckily, my dad just filled it with silicone so it won't let water in. But I mean, wtf???? Anyone ever had this before? lol

Thats some golf tee... but in the 14 years I've been playing I never had, heard of ,or seen anything like your story. It must have been a 1 in a million thing though for you to not feel to you were standing on a tee and the fact that it didn't break.

Do you mean the area where you tee off, or those boxes they have next to the area that hold broken tees? Nothing against either of them, but I do get annoyed at people who don't try to keep the course nice out of respect.

i would rather have flat tee boxes than cleared off ones. it seems that none of the reasonably priced courses around here have level tee boxes...

[uttexas]

Ideally, the tee ground should be level and clear of debris. Every tee box should have some divot repair material. However, I only find this at the very high end courses (which I don't play very often), so I've learned to live with it.

I do, however, pick up as many broken tees as reasonable and dispose of them. When there is divot repair material, I'll fill in as many divots as I can with one scoop.

I think I'd settle for tee boxes I could get a tee into right now. My home course is like concrete, I actually sliced my finger open last week when a tee broke with me trying to shove it in the ground.

No doubt! Sometime I wish I had a hammer when trying to get my tee into this Georgia clay.

Don't really let things like that bother me. I can't do anything about it, so I don't worry about it. I'm far more concerned with unfilled divots in the fairway and unrepaired ball marks on the greens. Those I WILL make an effort to fix when time allows.

The municipal track just down the street from me is the exact opposite. There is a retiree/ranger that spends time every day going to the tee boxes and cleaning up all of the broken tees. Kind of rough on the par 3s when you want a broken tee.

Ive just started 2 play n it annoys me, i try not 2 contribute 2 da mess by using brushts

[Montezumasdaddy]

As a manufacturer of golf tees I love seeing as many broken tees as I can on the course, job security. Hate to see them go through someones shoe though.

Hey Alomar, Ive got a bunch of brush tees I will send you if you cover the shipping. Let me know.

[alomar123]

thanks, but im gonna have to pass, ive just started playing and I am still trying to figure out what i like best

[microcrayfish]

I don't mind broken tees on the tee boxes. I'm looking at my ball when I swing so why should a few broken tees lying around bother me? What irks me is uneven tee boxes.

I reccomend getting these, they are our biggest seller and most popular tee on tour. Let me know if you would like a sample.

I will take some brush tee's if you are offering. I actually use the tee's in your link. I have the blue ones. I like them alot, but truthfully i break alot of them too.

[alomar123]

Actually those pts tees are not too good, they were the first i tried since they have a measurement nex to it but they break extremely easily

rhe zero friction is the way to go. They also make them out of wood.

I love broken tees on par 3's. I always hunt around for one lying about and rarely am I disappointed. Why waste a perfectly good unbroken one?

I used to use those pts tees but for the same reason as above I don't play them any more. I'm too cheap, and they break almost every time. Golf being a venerable Scottish game, being cheap is a virtue.
