Mark Your Ball-And Your Tee?

 

Next time you are marking your ball so you can find it, (We know our customers dont hit them in the woods often ..but you never know right.) remember to keep your Sharpie out and mark your tee as well.

Why would I Mark my tee'

Well if you want to be a little more consistent off the tee, you should be marking not only your golf balls but your tees as well.

Ever wish you could have that consistent ball flight that the guys on tour have off the tee? Well you canok maybe not tour like but a definite improvement.

Drivers have something called (Bulge & Roll) on their faces. What this means is that no driver has a straight face. Bulge is the amount the face curves on its horizontal axis and roll is the amount the face curves on its vertical axis. Bulge is there to help you if you hit it off-center towards the toe or the heel. It works like a gear effect on a toe shot and reduces the amount the ball slices and on heel shots it reduces the amount the ball will hook.

So, lets say you have a 10 Degree driver. Yes, the bulge on this driver will help but the roll actually will hurt more then it helps. Actually it doesnt help at all. We take this 10 Degree driver and hit it only too high on the face. Well now we are hitting a 12 Degree driver. Hit this same driver too low on the face and now you are hitting an 8 Degree driver. Now you see why when you hit it low on the face you get the ever famous Worm Burner. This happens because the bottom of the head is of much less loft then the center of the face. The same being said for the top of the head, it has a higher loft then the center of the face.

So, you are probably saying to yourself That doesnt make any sense. Why do golf manufactures do this. I want my driver to be the same loft no matter where I hit it on the face. Well until 2007 you will not get your fix for this.shhh dont tell anyone but I have been hired as a designer for another golf company and I will try to fix all of these problems for you guys in 2007.

But until then the best way to fix this is to tee the ball at the same height EVERY SINGLE TIME. The only way to do this is to accurately is to test out different tee heights until you get to your optimal ball flight then mark the tee.

Then all you need to do is take all of your tees and match it up with the one you had at the range that had your ball flight, just where you wanted it.
