This has been one of the biggest changes to my game Dan. I've always never used a tee off the par 3s etc, as I considered myself confident and a decent enough ball striker, but recently I've started playing with a pro ( gaz from James channel) and he encouraged me to always use a tee where possible, it's totally transformed me off the tee and now I feel like I've been missing out for years 😂

My 24 year old son, playing off 3, never uses a tee on par-3s. Just finds a good patch of grass and places the ball down. Plays it like a shot from the fairway...be it 100 yards or 200 yards. He always takes a large divot and never lacks spin. He has 3 holes-in-one so not using a tee works for him, his swing and his mindset.

More interesting this one. No test with Pro, but have tested all tee heights with different irons. Use little red one with shorter irons, and no tee for 5/6 irons into par 3s.
@yadthink4 жыл бұрын
Very timely vlog, Dan, as my course has tallish grass on tee boxes now, so on par 3s the ball is either teed too high or looks to be sitting in the rough. Teeing the ball at the level of the grass has led to poor strikes, so I'll try teeing the ball lower and see how that goes.

2 > 8 iron will use a broken wooden tee and push it down so it's between orange and red castle height. 9 iron or less will generally hit it off the deck as i feel i might slide the club underneath too much with a tee
@johngriffiths80334 жыл бұрын
For all my irons I use the wooden tees but at the height of your orange tee. ( as another has posted, usually a broken tee lying around the tee box 😉). Raise the height slightly for woods but not by much. I've also stopped using plastic tees anymore. Wood or Bamboo from now on.

So where does Dame Laura's tapping the tee box come into it ? You do that too. I do it, I like a little help but not too much, I don't want to hit up with my hybrids let alone my irons. Am I missing out on somehting here ? Before you started on the numbers I thought the smash factor would change as strike would change and then you didn't menton smash. Would you see a change in smash doing this ? Its interesting to see how more knowledge can improve our game !! Its a winner all round

Yes Jack also said only an idiot would have the opportunity to tee the ball perfectly and refuse to do it. Think he was feeling grumpy that day because that's a bit strong for him 😄 I do use the castle tees (and I know everyone will say I don't I use wooden tees but they sell millions of them so someone else is using them apart from me) little orange tees for irons.. Reds (pushed down hard to sink them a wee bit) fairway woods and I use anything big enough (including wooden ones) for my driver.

I'm confused..shouldn't angle of attack with the ball on the deck be 2 0r 3 degrees negative..which would bring his contact more to the center of the face...and off a high tee wouldn't you then want about 2 degrees up for center contact...

Never understood why people use a tee for the irons. You can't use one in the fairway, so why on a tee box? You may not realize it, but you'll change your swing when you do. JM2C

Some fairway lies are better than others. Some teebox lies see better than others. A tee allows the best lie possible on the teebox.

Maybe it’s a range issue but the auto feeding tees don’t go low enough and people get used to higher tees for irons? My issue is probably in my mind but I can hit from a fairway ok but of a tee (orange) on a par 3 I want too much from that shot and it doesn’t work out quite often.
