Tee Choices For You: Wooden, Plastic, And Brush

When golf was first invented our ancestors probably didn't have the luxury of choosing between wooden tees and the bare ground. Then someone showed other golfers how much easier it would be to tee the ball up on a wooden stick and have a clean lie before you took a swing. They had no idea manufactured brush tees would be a part of the future.

Tees made of wood are still popular today. Golfers love to have them emblazoned with their own name and the fact that they're easily splintered on impact doesn't phase most people who are addicted to the links. Some golfers are unwilling to change the kind of tees they use.

Wooden tees tend to splinter whereas plastic tees won't. Plastic tees are also well accepted by golfers, plus, you have the choice of personalizing them.

Brush tees are relatively new in the history of golf. When you use a brush tee, you'll feel like you're hitting a ball that's on the grass. All golfers know the great feeling of teeing off perfectly.

Using a brush tee gives you the feeling that your ball is just sitting on the grass. There's no resistance (no matter how slight) as there is when you hit a wooden or plastic tee.

Research has shown that golfers are adding yards to their shots by using brush tees instead of wooden or plastic versions. The bristles art the top are synthetic creations that bend when they're struck, so there's nothing standing in the way between you and the perfect tee shot.

As every golfer understands, even a slight variation in the ground can impede accuracy and sometimes just result in a subconscious effort to control the outcome by making you swing differently.
