How high should I tee-up my ball?
It's an age old question that used to be answered by saying, "As a rule of thumb you should tee-up the ball so that you can see half of it when you set down your driver behind it."
The giant titanium heads of the new drivers that range up to 460cc in size may have changed things a bit now and it's very possible you'll need to tee your ball up higher and use longer tees.
If you have acquired one of these new drivers as most of us have, it would be well worth your while to go to the driving range and experiment with different heights until you find the one that gives you the best launch angle.
