GETTING PLAYERS STARTED

Forget word or color associations for tees
The Longleaf Tee System is simple and practical, yet very profound. It eliminates outdated norms and vernacular, such as men’s tees, ladies’ tees, senior tees, or color associations like white, red, or blue; there are now simply multiple tees locations to begin each hole at a yardage based on how far any person hits their drive. As a player develops their game, the further back they play. As the player get older and their distance begins to diminish, the player moves up.

Beginning with 100 yards, numbered poles are located on the range–ascending from 1 to 8. Players hit a number of drives, matching their average carry distance to the most closely associated number pole. The player now has the suggested tee location number optimal for their round.
