graduated golf tees

Listings show a mix of materials including wood (rubberwood), various plastics (rigid polymers), thermoplastic elastomer, and multi-material or co-molded constructions that combine a rigid body with an elastomer crown.

Pack sizes vary widely. You can buy single tees, small variety packs (for example 4 per size), and larger packs — examples from listings include counts of 1, 4, 6, 7, and 12.

Taller tees (about 3 1/4" and up) are typically used for drivers. Shorter tees — roughly 1 3/4" to about 2 1/8" — are more common for irons, hybrids, and fairway woods. Many drivers also use tees around 2 3/4" as a common option.

Common head designs include brush-top and rubber-cupped tops, plus low-friction or low-spin tops. Co-molded or elastomer crowns are also used to help produce cleaner strikes and improve launch characteristics.

These tees are intended for outdoor golf courses and for use on indoor golf-hitting mats. One listing also advises avoiding hard surfaces.

Some tees include built-in height gauges for consistent tee height, sharpened tips for easier insertion, and designs that double as green-repair tools. Others advertise low-spin or low-friction launch characteristics.
