What are you talking about? The tee is just an object that holds up the golf ball!\u00a0 Wrong!\u00a0 120 years ago, they used a little shot glass, they filled it with dirt, they turned it upside down, and removed the glass or tin, and put the ball on top of it.\u00a0 It was how they raised the golf ball!\u00a0 Then it evolved into a wood tee, and for 80 years a wood tee has been the way you tee up your golf ball.\u00a0 \u00a0The tee has been in the category of the golf industry as a “Accessory”, it has not been viewed in the more highly esteemed category of “Equipment”, well its time for that to change.\u00a0 \u00a0Here is why?<\/p>\n

Accessory –<\/strong> let’s define that – something that makes something more useful?\u00a0 something that enhances something else.<\/em>\u00a0 Now lets define Equipment\u00a0 \u00a0Equipment<\/strong> – let’s define that – the necessary items for a particular purpose<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Oh my – let’s make this very clear.\u00a0 The Golf Tee, yes it must be needed to enhance the golf ball, however, an Accessory has another meaning, which is, ‘something that is optional’.\u00a0 \u00a0 You buy a car, you may want a moon roof, you may want navigation, yet, you don’t have to have those things.\u00a0 \u00a0On the other hand, you have to have an engine and tires to make the car go!\u00a0 \u00a0A golf tee has now been proven, that the ball seat matters.\u00a0 It actually can contribute to less friction or more friction at impact.\u00a0 \u00a0That in itself is HUGE NEWS, the ball seat by many different types of golf tees, all have this in common – their is less friction at impact!\u00a0 So the golf tee affects the golf ball, in a significant way.\u00a0 Less spin means greater distance with ball flight and how the ball rolls.\u00a0 \u00a0 Depending on the type of tee, and the club head speed… how does 3 yards (9 feet), 4 yards (12 feet), 5 yards (15 feet) 6 yards (18 feet) would you say that is an accessory?\u00a0 \u00a0What if it was 1 yard (3 feet)\u00a0 would that matter to you?\u00a0 \u00a0Imagine 3′ of added carry or roll!\u00a0 We would always take that!\u00a0 \u00a0 Its a fact, the ball seat make a difference.\u00a0 \u00a0 The tee is not just an option!\u00a0 It is indeed part of the golfers equipment ensemble.\u00a0 \u00a0 The ball matters!\u00a0 \u00a0The club matters!\u00a0 The grip matters!\u00a0 The shaft matters!\u00a0 The TEE matters!\u00a0 \u00a0its time for the golf tee to be recognized.\u00a0 \u00a0 It may have taken 120 years, however, technology, has caught up with the tee.\u00a0 \u00a0 We are so proud of our tee, not only does it have THE ball seat, yet it has the body, a body that does not\u00a0 break!\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Go Tee!\u00a0 Go Tee!\u00a0 \u00a0Go High Performance Golf Tees!\u00a0 \u00a0Go Tee 4 Life!<\/p>\n
