Remember, you paid good money for those, so you're actually out $5.

And, you're probably dumber now than you were before you read this post.

Absolutely - for example, I now firmly believe that US Americans should be sending these fancy tees to other countries, such as South Africa and Iraq...

Well placed. I've been saying stuff like that for the last few days.

My friend Laura: "My printer won't connect. Why do you think that is?"

Response: "I personally believe that the reason for that is that is things such as faulty cables and South African poverty."

Laura: "... I don't know why I talk to you."

I have been using Zero Frictions for their durability, but they do get bent. Will look for the Epoch. My kids (ages 4 to 8) love their brush tees and the consistent height part works for them as they will tee the ball wayyyyyy too high.

Just tell him not to shave for a couple weeks before you play and you'll get a nice fluffy lie.

I had some zero friction tees in my bag, but did not know what they were called.... I have never heard of the epoch... and have some Brush.

I case you're lost as to #1 what these tees are... and #2 why the hell a tee thread would make it to three pages...

Well, I can help with question #1.

Brush Tees

Epoch

Zero Friction

Obviously, US Americans could hit a tee shot from South America all the way to Iraq with the use of the correct tee. No map needed.....

tmag said it correct with the name... Epoch tee, we sold these like hotcakes at the golfers warehouse! theyre biodegradable and last longer are the best reasons to buy but they love to endorse the less friction thing with the whole moler(sp?) tooth idea which reduces side spin which = more distance. overall heard a lot of good reviews while working and people kept on buyin them...

I use the zero friction tees just because they are so durable. I hate digging out another tee from the bag every time I tee it up.
