Matt Saternus Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Did you have any problems with these bending? Any plastic tees I've used in the past got bent up from hitting them or from pushing them into the ground.

Maybe we can coordinate schedules over the next few weeks and I can drop a couple by for you to try. I think you'll like them.

SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted April 24, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted April 24, 2010 Is sounds like it is a bit too short to use with the big headed driver. Did I read that wrong?

Andrew Bush Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 another thing which might not matter in your area or when u play but during the cold months a plastic gets hard and breaks easier, i went like a month with a zero friction tee once but when it gets cold i break one every hole so i would like to see how it does up north in october Andrew Bush da lefty of the forum.

Shambles Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Some people here lean the tee forward in an effort to reduce the possibility of friction. Works well enough I suppose, except when the wind blows and the ball sometimes falls off at an inopportune moment. That blade design seems like just another variation of this idea. I carry both wood and plastic tees. In private clubs the teeing ground is normally soft and even soft plastic will work well enough but in public courses a wood tee is very much needed for the hard ground.

mis-putt Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 The review is correct. I've used the D-tee for my last 6 rounds or so, and I never want use wood tees again. They really are cool, as well as funtional. Somebody else must have tried them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addicted2Golf Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Is sounds like it is a bit too short to use with the big headed driver. Did I read that wrong? It depends on how high you like to tee the ball up with a deep faced driver. If you typically tee the ball a little lower then you'd be OK. If you tee the ball in the prescribed fashion with half the ball above the face like most people do then it still works but you have to barely place the tee in the ground to get it high enough. And on a couple of poorly mowed tee boxes at my local muni, that proved to be at times a frustrating experience.
