Grip n rip
About 3 weeks ago I had a nice conversation with an old codger on the driving range. After giving him a bunch of distance numbers with my range finder, he insisted on giving me one of his golf tees, the Martini and told me to thank him later.
Well, next time I see him I'll be thanking him. This thing is pretty amazing. Its made of some type of rubber I would think as it has proven to be indestructible to this point. I have used it for 4 rounds of golf and 6 range sessions over these past 3 weeks. I would say I have hit over 120 drivers with this tee and its still perfect.
The best I've ever gotten out of a single tee before was an epoc for about 2 rounds of golf before breaking. This thing has just enough give to prevent breaking, but is plenty firm enough to get into harder ground on the tee box. The "martini cup" on top is the easiest thing in the world to get the ball to sit on too.
The tee measures a little over 3 inches so its great for tall faced drivers too. Not sure how/if it would work for irons but its too valuable to me to find out. After hitting a ball it pops out of the ground almost every time so its a good thing its big and bright and easy to find, usually 3 to 10 feet behind where I had the ball teed.
According to their website you can buy 5 for 6 bucks. I think 5 would last me a season easy, and that's if I got lazy looking for them after hitting the ball.

Here's some pics of my tee after 120+ swings and who knows how many my new friend put on it before me.
The web site claims more distance and better dispersion versus a wooden tee. Not sure I'm seeing that or not, but the durability is more than enough to sell me on the value of this thing.
