Maybe I’m the last one to know about this tee…I got it from my Dad for Xmas…He gave me just one and said that’s all I need. I don’t even know who makes it but I’ve played two rounds and can’t seem to break it in 40 degree weather. Apparently you’re supposed to line up the tee when you stick it in the ground with the direction you’re going. In the pic the direction would be where the shadow is pointing.
I played with a bunch of guys in Australia in a pro am when I was there recently…they all used a tee like that… I didn’t really take much notice about the tilting or positioning but now you posted it… it was the same tee…you are correct too…they never broke one or lost one
They’re pretty common here. From what I’ve heard they don’t ever break, however their life is limited by the cup at the top wearing and refusing to hold a ball anymore. Also good for fixing ball marks.
These are pretty good and have been around for a while, but I find as the tee ground starts to firm up over summer they are very hard to get into the ground…
On the flip side I played with a guy off +2 last week who didnt use a tee all day just stubbed up a piece of turf with his shoe and sat the ball on top hehe. Even for the driver!
Too funny and it obviously hasn’t yet but will let you know if it happens…It’s strange to truly give a hoot where the tee goes after the tee ball and 2M is right that they are hard to lose. For the time being I’ve nicknamed it Moe because from my understanding he rearly broke a tee
