I have noticed a lot of people complaining about Zero Friction tees being unusable on hard tee boxes, or near the end of seasons when the ground dries up.

Just carry a wooden tee. Put it in the ground, then remove the wooden tee and tee up with your zero friction in the hole.

As far as I know it's not against the rules to make a pilot hole as long as you don't actually tee up your ball on the wooden tee. It sure is a lot easier then trying to get the ZF to stay straight a whole round.

Thanks for the tip, dulberf. I found that straightening the ZF tees is very simple. Just bend them the opposite way and you are all set.

Maybe I've had my head in the sand bunker to long but what is a
zero friction tee

Or better yet...just use the wood tee since it's in the ground already! I've used the Zero Friction / Epoch tees and went back to using plain old wood tees. They're cheaper and if I happen to loose one I don't look like an idiot pacing up and down the tee box looking for it. Simp

LOL! I do feel kind of dumb after reading the "wood tee to make the hole", (since I just complained to myself about the bent tees) but this is what separates us from monkeys. This is a serious thanks for the thought.

I think these Zero Friction / Epoch tees are worthless. You really gain nothing by using them except for a lighter wallet.

Why not just use the wooden tee?

I've still got some custom tees for sale... guaranteed to do something! On sale today for 3 easy installments....

If you guys have good luck with em, get after it. I usually come home with more tees than i left with. The only reason I ever buy tees is because I give em to playing partners. Wooden tees do fine for me.

It's all a gimmick. Just like the Michael Jordan shoes used to make you jump higher. Although I did buy into that when I was a 12 year old.

Simply switching tees cannot alter your shot shape or distance...only your clubface and swing speed can do that.

Nuh-uh! Liar, Liar, pants on fire!!!

Dang! Ya got me.

i don't use wooden tees anymore because for 5.00 i can get about 100 zero friction and they don't break i alway break wooden ones and it ends up costing me more over the season buying wooden ones. i have been set for tees all year for 5.00

League, I wanted to post that sooooooo bad, but I had already reached my sarcasm quota for the day... Gotta save some for the wife

hahaha I was thinking the same thing as I bought the stupid things.

Yep thats exactly what i do, i dont see any major problem for me. And when i do use wooden tees, i just wriggle them in the floor so they dont snap.
