I'm a little dubious of this, yes, overly steep, the tee will probably fly out but to me it seems it's random where it ends up if you hit driver w/a positive AoA. Don't tees fly when players drive the ball w/a positive AoA?

Dubious indeed. It doesn't take into account where on the face you struck the ball.

This probably belongs in that comics thread. If the tee barely moves, doesn't that really mean that you probably hit the ball low on the face? I mean, if you're talking about a centered strike, the driver is going hit a significant portion of the tee. I know, personally, when the tee looks untouched like that, I normally have hit the ball low on the face.

It seems to me like the best strikes with the driver I have, the tee flys up out of the ground. But that's not consistent. This thing is a load of malarkey.

Given my swing issues and how I've been shown almost without fail via Flightscope that I hit up on the ball with my driver and my tee tends to get knocked out of the ground this illustration is obviously nowhere near accurate.

My tee usually goes flying back away from the target.  

Not sure what that means...
