AmishJason Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Has anyone ever tried Western Birch tees? They seem interesting and a bit over priced. An ad for them popped up as I was browsing Instagram. Not sure what would kind of image would go well on the cup of a tee, but hey, someone out there thought of it.

tony@CIC Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Never tried them , however I prefer plastic tees. I never break the plastic ones unlike the wooden ones which break with almost every driver swing.

PlaidJacket Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I've actually seen that tee on the course before. I looked at their bulk tee offer with logo on the cup. I was thinking about our First Tee chapter. I could see buying some of these for a promo at a golf tournament, etc. However, day in day out I just use what I find laying around and they are mostly logo plastic tees from my home club. I'm not a fan really of providing free tees at golf courses due to the litter problem. Anyway... I find these birch tees kind of interesting.

Don't ask why this thought never crossed my mind and perhaps it's due to those I play with. I never have thought about tees as litter. Broken wooden/bamboo tees probably aren't as bad as plastic ones that get left behind, but I probably should take the extra couple seconds to grab my broken tee and properly dispose of it.

AmishJason Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 Also, these birch tees may just give me an easy opportunity to ease into my first unofficial forum review. Shouldn't be too hard to review a tee after all.

dbdors Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I use them, nice quality tees. I mainly use them because they match my “black, red & white” bag theme. They are fairly durable for a wood tee. I can typically get 3 to 5 drives from a tee. I also like the stripes, the help with consistent tee height. You can get all of this from other tees, but I like the color mainly . aerospace_ray and AmishJason 2 Quote Woods: Rogue ST Max LS 9*, Ventus Blue 6S / Stealth Plus+, 15*, Stealth 2, 22*, both w/MCA Diamana Thump 75S Hybrid: 0317 X Proto 4H & 5H, Xcaliber RTI75 S Irons: IRON 101 6-PW, Accra T90i S Wedges: CBX ZipCore 48*, Accra T90i, 53* & 58*, Accra T100i S Putter: LAB Golf EF3, Accra graphite, 34", Press II 3* Ball: Maxfli Tour Bag/Cart: Fairway 14 Stand Bag / 4.0 / Alphard Club Booster V2, Swivel kit Accessories: 360 / Garmin G80 / Nikon Coolshot Pro Stabilized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmishJason Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 I went ahead and ordered some trees from Western Birch. Like I said, should be an easy first attempt at an unofficial review. @dbdors, feel free to chime in when I post it.

bens197 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I bought three bags last month for two reasons. #1 they look cool #2 I want to spend money supporting smaller niche businesses. I needed tees and so far, they work great. No durability issues to speak of thus far. aerospace_ray 1 Quote Titleist TSi3 Fujikura Speeder NX Blue 60X TaylorMade SIM2 3 wood Fujilkura Ventus Blue 7-X Titleist U505 2 Tensei 1K Black 85 X Titleist T100 4-P Nippon Modus 3 120X PING S159 50-S 55-H 59-T DG X100 Vokey SM8 50, SM9 54 & 60 Nippon Modus 3 120s L.A.B.
