Has anyone ever heard of or used the yellow cone tees for irons? I refer to them as carrot tees and absolutely love using them. I used one tee for my iron shots in 5 rounds so far this year (snow isn't cooperating) and it is still intact. Last year I purchased a hundred of them for $2.00 at a local course that shut down at the end of the year. Problem is... I can't find them to buy anywhere! Like I mentioned before, they are very durable compared to regular tees, so 100 should last quite a while but I would still like to have some more. Anyone know where to buy them? Thanks.

Is this what you're looking for? http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=extra+long+golf+tees&_osacat=0&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313&_nkw=yellow+cone+golf+tees&_sacat=0&_from=R40

That link came up as item not found. In the link, though, I see it says extra long tees. The ones I am referring to are only about an inch or so long. They start at a point at the bottom and basically are the shape of a cardboard party hat. They are made of wood.

I use the Frogger tees for irons & hybrids. I lose more than I break.

I dont usually lose the cones, however, they do usuallyl get driven into the bottom of the dovot on impact and can be a pain to pull back out

Is it cone shaped similar to an incense or does it have a flat surface like a traffic cone?

Lol no doubt the warmer weather folks are confused, you're looking for winter tees. Common around here when the ground is frozen and you can't get a tee in it. Big tub of them on the counter at every course I've played this winter. The cheapie ones are hollow, flimsy and look like a traffic cone. Typically color is related to length but the generic ones can be any color. The free winter tees at the home course are all white. I hate them, I keep an awl in my bag to poke a hole.

Swbyps they look sort of like an incense cone. They have a point on the bottom and gradually increase in thickness towards the top. They have a concave top just like a normal tee would. Dave the tees I'm referring to are made to go in the ground.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
