New From the In Box: Tee Square Trainer Tee

I don't remember seeing something like this before. What do you think? I feel like there are two issues.

1. I would destroy it or my driver when I hit that plastic ring.

2. Couldn't you DIY this with a poker chip with a hole in it.

 

Interesting concept regardless IMO.

Glad I checked the video - I like aids that give immediate and obvious feedback.  And as a chronic swayer I could see this thing being useful -- if it holds up.  Worth a try...

Ohhhh, I get it now.  If you sway you see the orange, if you stay centered you don't see it.   I fight the sways too and when I do I always miss badly.   Might just work.

What if you set up your head a bit behind the ball at address though? I feel like this is how I should be setting up with the driver. You guys are better sticks than I am though. Maybe I need to look at this or one of these with a normal tee:

I would think that the tee would hold the ball if you put the tee in with just enough backwards slant so you don't see the ball at address. If it doesn't hold the ball, you can always put a little glue on it.

Interesting premise, but after breaking 4 of the plastic tee's in the simulator on Friday I don't think they would hold up for me.

Hi Dave - Saw this topic and thought I'd throw in my 2 cents. I was given a set of these Tee Square tees and they are pretty cool. Instant feedback is one of the things I like about them. You mentioned you were concerned about them breaking and making marks on your clubs, I have hit the ones in my bag at least a couple of hundred times and they look brand new and I was concerned as well about any marks on my clubs so I used an old driver first and found that they leave no marks or impact impressions on any club. I'm shocked at how durable they are and I swing pretty hard.  I'll keep an eye out for future topics. Thanks!
