Common golf tee lengths include: very short tees (~2 1/8"), standard/short tees (~2 3/4" or 2.75"), driver tees (~3 1/4" or 3.25"), and the longest allowed tees (4"). Listings often show lengths written both as fractions and decimals (e.g., 3.25" and 2.75").
Most golf tees are made from either wood or plastic. Product specifications commonly list the material explicitly as “Wood” or “Plastic.”
Wood tees are described as made from solid hardwood with an elegant, smooth finish. Listings often highlight non-toxic, lead-free paint and engineered strength for performance and durability.
Some wooden tees are described as made from 100% solid hardwood and coated with non-toxic, lead-free paint. One plastic tee description also highlights an environmentally friendly design and reduced deforestation as a selling point.
Descriptions state that certain designs reduce resistance at impact or create a low-spin launch, which the listings say results in less friction, lower ball spin, and longer, straighter drives or added distance.
