How High to Tee Up the Ball on a Drive

One great question is how high should I tee up my golf ball? You mind as well start the hole out right, so why not learn a proper setup. I have always been told to tee it up so that you see half the golf ball above your driver. So depending on the driver height, this will vary for each person. As you will find out from the video below, someone with a shallow swing needs to tee it up a bit higher than someone with a downward swing. I personally like mine teed up higher to maximize drive distance.

My preferred tees for driving are the Hyperion Golf 4 inch Bamboo Tees. These have lines marking a couple of different heights so I can setup the tee to the right height every time. They also last longer than the normal 4 inch wood tees I've golfed with. Those usually only last me one, maybe two hits. The Hyperion Bamboo Tees last me much longer. I can usually use only 1 or 2 for every 18 holes. For $12.95 for 100 of them, I can play a long time before repurchasing.

Anyway,   check them out using the link at the bottom of the post. Make sure to view the video below from Me and My Golf. They've got some great tips on how to determine your tee height.
