Tom,
Thanks for the info. I would hope that the tees I saw were
MUCH cheaper than these things.

Hi;
I have a few of the "Perfect Tees." I got them a couple of years ago at a
golf expo. They are plastic. Colors are white or yellow. They resemble a
green divot tool. The Perfect Tee is round at the top and indented the same
as any other tee. There's a hole in the center of the concavity into which
one can insert a tee, thereby extending the height. The tee comes with an
instruction sheet. The tees I got came in a plastic tube. 2 long tees for
woods, one short tee for irons. There are 3 "O" rings installed around the
top of the tee "to protect the clubface" Also to make gripping the tee more
comfortable when using it to repair pitch marks. I don't recall all the
instructions but I thought it was kind of funny that a tee needs them at
all. There's a one-year guarantee against breakage. Just sent the tee back
to the company, in Santa Barbara, CA, along with return postage and
handling, and the company will replace it at no extra charge ;-)
The instruction sheet and the guarantee are absolute crackups. Fortunately,
I got my 2 sleeves - one with yellow tees, one with white, for free. Price
for one package? $6.95 plus tax. I sure as hell wouldn't buy a package of
them.
I used the tees for a while, until I lost them. There's one significant
problem with them. If you use one where there's a lot of rough or H20 in
front of or around the tee area there's a very good chance of losing them.
They fly a long way when hit, and they don't always fly straight. For a
while, I told the guys I play with to watch the tee rather than the ball. No
matter. It didn't take very long to lose 4 tees.
However, if you're really interested, here's the info from the plastic
packaging;

Not quite what you're looking for, but I've heard that the long drivers
are using "The Perfect Tee" with good success. A search on Google
should turn it up.
