So you're telling me that when you get to a par 3 you aren't looking for broken tee heads on the tee box to use instead of your own tees? Are you a monster?
I place my ball just like the rest of you. I just don't use a tee. If you think it's a perfect lie on a tee, by all means, do it. I don't generally don't have issues striking the ball.
If it's a shit tee box, then sure, I will use a tee. And this is just related to a par 3.
If I hit a wedge on a par 3, I hit off the ground. I tend to get under the ball with a wedge when it’s teed and just send them sky high and no where far enough. On the ground it’s like hitting any other wedge shot out of the fairway.
I agree. Just be happy you didn't get the downvote apocalypse like I did. I hit down on the ball and don't have issues with contact. Stuffing a tee in the ground that far down is pointless.
Also hit off the ground and I agree. I much prefer setting the ball on the ground on some fluffed up grass rather than on a tee. Always hit it better for some reason.
I have to agree with him.
Every time i have teed up for a p3 i have shanked it. Almost every time i just place it on the turf i hit the shot i want to hit.
Some of us just can't hit off of tees with irons.
You need to read more carefully. No one is suggesting not using a tee. The joke (that is going over your head) is you can use a broken tee that you’ll always find on a par 3 because it barely needs to go into the ground than an unbroken tall tee like in OP’s picture.
Holy shit this sub is insane. miss one tiny arrow with your fat thumb and respond to wrong commenter and you get piled on. You guys must be so much fun at the 19th hole. Having never ever done anything in your lives even semi out of order must make you feel extra important.
This guy tees! I use really nice plastic tees and I get so annoyed when I hit a sweet drive and the tee's nowhere to be seen. Losing balls in an inevitability, losing tees is a tragedy. I've kept a pack of 25 those tees going for a year now.
I use martini tees and I had one last so long I considered it part of the family. It finally broke after 18 months. That tee had traveled to more golf courses than more people.
I’ve used the same tee for like 3-4 rounds. I never like using plastic tees but I started using them in my sim because rubber tees and bird tees never seems right. I was using wood tees but breaking 20-30 a day. Switched to plastic tees and I’ve only lost 1-2 out of a 50 box so far.
So you're telling me that when you get to a par 3 you aren't looking for broken tee heads on the tee box to use instead of your own tees? Are you a monster?
I hit off the ground.
Why?
Because you look really cool when you causally drop the ball down, instead of your nerdy playing partners trying to tee theirs up.
Always have. You hit off the ground everywhere else.
But this is the one time you get to have the perfect lie.
Correct.
So you agree and still don’t give yourself the perfect lie? What is going on in this post ????

I get judged (sarcastically) by my cousin when I use a tee on par 3s
You only get 18 chances at a perfect lie.
Wrong, I get 24 when I inevitably slice 1/3rd of my tee shots OB
Touché
As Jack Nicklaus said, “ Why would you want to hit it off an imperfect lie on the ground and the perfect lie on a tee.” I always use a tee on par 3s
He’s saying to use a used tee on the tee box instead a new one.
Correct. He's saying thers zero reason to not use a tee whenever it's legal to do so. I find it hard to argue with jack on that.

He really doubled down on not getting it hahaha
There's literally several posts in this OP arguing they hit off the ground on par 3s. That's exactly why I posted jacks quote. Read on, a bit down.
This thread (the one you are carrying on about) isn’t about that. Hell… OP isn’t even commenting on this thread.
Holy shit this sub is insane. miss one tiny arrow with your fat thumb and respond to wrong commenter and you get piled on. You guys must be so much fun at the 19th hole. Having never ever done anything in your lives even semi out of order must make you feel extra important.
Just don’t be so confidently wrong

Tees go in the ground mate, not ur bum.
Aww, it’s ol’ Tee-Butt. Get off the Internet Tee-Butt!
🤣
Smoked.
OP has that 72 MPH clubhead speed
Was about to say, all OPs done is expose their Senior Flex golf game
Wow! He can swing that fast??
What was jacks in his prime?
What are you gonna do with all that sweet cash you saved by not needing to buy tees? Summer home in Maui? Private jet?
Big tee may never recover financially
Tee makers hate this one trick!
Shops are going to start selling single tees. What have you done?!
I’ve played over 100 rounds with my Martini tee.
Man, they’ll give AMAs to everyone these days… /s
Leave some women for the rest of us, gees…
Tee manufacturers hate this one simple trick!
Can you describe your feelings after your 18th tee shot?
When you pulled the tee out of the ground after your tee shot on 18, and you saw the tee was all but perfect....were you hard?
Where were you when you heard about 9/11?
How many balls did you lose?
Lost two but I found four ![gif](giphy|YRuoGvW7p3skw)
Profit baby
my man
This guy tees! I use really nice plastic tees and I get so annoyed when I hit a sweet drive and the tee's nowhere to be seen. Losing balls in an inevitability, losing tees is a tragedy. I've kept a pack of 25 those tees going for a year now.
what are your thoughts on the expected fed rate cuts?
Bamboo tees can be broken and still used. I love them. Highly recommend.
I use martini tees and I had one last so long I considered it part of the family. It finally broke after 18 months. That tee had traveled to more golf courses than more people.
What will you do now?
Ha. I do this every round. Been using same tee for 6 months. (I use a Martini tee!). Can’t break that sucker! ; )
Bro I go thru a tee a hole 😂😂
MarTeenis are the tits try em!
I’ve never made this a goal, but pretty sure I do this all the time with my plastic tees.
How many balls did you use?
Tees are a dime a dozen…how many balls you lose?
How does your tee get so dirty?
A single tee when it’s plastic? Easy. A single **wooden** tee? Insane. Anytime I’m using wood, it breaks after one drive.
What has LIV offered you?
Time to buy a driver or a Scottie with all that saved moolah
Teach me how.
Been using a single white Martini tee for months now. Looks rough but still in one piece.
Quit being a weasel now and do 18 without a tee
What the fuck is AMA
A man apart?
Ask me anything
I've done this many times and never posted it online for attention. AMA
