USGA and Consistent-Tee
Consistent Tee was recognized
as a Leading Golf Equipment Provider by the USGA in the Program at the US Open.
Consistent-Tee™ is USGA Compliant.

The Right Tee Height is not Guesswork!
When placing the ball on the tee, it is important to do so, such that the driver will strike
the ball properly. Establishing the correct height is extremely important. Why
guess where to put the ball on every drive. The Consistent-Tee™ takes the guesswork
out of where to tee the ball and gives you the confidence that your ball is teed up correctly for
every Drive. The science of the Consistent-Tee™ ensures that the science behind
your Oversize Driver and Golf Ball perform at the optimal level.
The correct height is dependent on the height of the driver being used. The top of the driver
face should be at the same height as a point on the ball approximately 2/3 of the ball's height.
This allows the sweet spot of the driver to connect with the center of the ball while keeping the
bottom of the driver off of the ground and thus maintaining top swing speed through the shot and
most importantly at the moment of impact. The Consistent-Tee™ is ideal for Drivers
with a volume between 380 cc’s to 410 cc’s.
Golf is a Sport of Precision!
The majority of today’s golfers use large volume drivers. Unfortunately, most are still using
the traditional 2 1/8" short tee, which is totally incapable of properly positioning the ball with
respect to the drivers sweet-spot. Even if golfers are using the new longer tees, most have difficulty
teeing the ball up at the right position for every drive. The Consistent-Tee™ has the answer. The
Consistent-Tee™ takes advantage of longer tees and takes the guesswork out of how high to
tee your ball. Because you tee the ball in the optimal position every time, it allows
you to hit consistent drives and take advantage of the technology designed for your Oversize
Driver.
One of the keys to a great golf game is teeing the ball consistently at the right height.

From a playability standpoint, the higher sweet spot requires one adjustment: You must
tee the ball higher.

Get Precise with Consistent-Tee
- The Consistent-Tee™ encourages a shallow approach and optimizes the launch angle and
back spin on your Drives.
- The Consistent-Tee™ takes the guesswork out of how high to tee your ball and places it
in the ideal position: at least 1/2 of the ball should be above the top line of the tee.
- Over 7 million golfers are currently using longer tees and when they switch to the Consistent-Tee™ they
will know that every time they Drive the ball, it is teed up perfectly and consistently.
…Save your standard-length tees for par 3s!
— Butch Harmon, Golf Digest October 2003
Don’t be caught trying to guess the proper tee height on the par 4 and par 5 holes. Use the Consistent-Tee™ on
your Drives and get the confidence that your drives will be launched with the proper angle and
back spin...

Bigger is Better
In the past several years, driver sizes have ballooned to such enormous sizes that the USGA has
deemed it necessary to place a cap on club head volumes. The USGA has also capped a size on tee
height. Naturally, larger volumes mean taller face heights. However, the proper tee/ball position
with relation to the face height is still the same — the equator of the ball should be even with
or just slightly below the top line of the face. This elevation is nearly impossible with 2" to
2.5" tees when the driver features a 50mm-plus face height. The Consistent-Tee™ merges these
two variables and provides the golfer with a higher teed ball at the optimal spot for every Drive.
The following is an excerpt from Golfsmith.com:
”Recently, Golfsmith's Research & Design staff went to the practice tee to see exactly what effect
tee height can have on modern driver performance. Using Harvey Penick Golf Academy instructors
(all excellent golfers) as test subjects, the results are quite interesting. Statistics below represent
an average of several shots after a short warm-up period.
As you can see, the taller tee heights greatly improved performance (launch angle, spin rate
and distances were all improved with a longer tee), and virtually all the test subjects admitted
the taller tee position made it easier to hit the ball solidly. And for those who say they prefer
a low ball because it runs farther, please note the carry distance of the 3-inch tee was significantly
greater than the total distance of the 2-inch tee So, if you've moved to a modern oversize driver
with taller face heights, perhaps it also time to consider a new tee to optimize the performance
of the driver's design.”

The Consistent-Tee™ has merged the science between proper tee height and oversize drivers
to create the ideal conditions for you to hit the ball with optimal launch angle and back spin
and provide you with the confidence that every tee shot will be consistent.
