How high do I tee up?
How high should I tee up when I use my driver, is a question often asked.
How high should I tee up when I use my driver, is a question often asked and to that, the rule of thumb answer has always been that half the ball should appear above the top of your driver’s head when it is laid on the grass behind the ball.
At least that was the way it used to be.
With the new monster drivers that range up to 400ccs, you might have to obtain some extra long tees in order to maintain the balls height above the driver’s face, but in truth you should additionally visit the range with your new driver and experiment with different tee heights until you find the best launch angle.
Make sure too, when you do find it that you carefully mark the tee to ensure you maintain the correct height when you get back to the course.
