hi welcome to it like golf do you know
why and how high you should T up your
ball when you play an iron do you know
what the difference will make I'm gonna
show you today welcome back to we play
golf the golf channel where you really
can learn how to play golf if you new to
this channel consider subscribing in
today's episode we're gonna talk to you
about tee height for an iron how you can
get consistent how can you get it
further and how can you get a lower or
higher trajectory only by using a
smaller or a longer tee why would you
consider using a tee when you hit an
iron well you want to use a tee to get
more consistent striking and then into
the center of the club when you don't
use it t on the tee box for playing an
iron you really have to know that the
impact of the golf club should be
perfectly into the middle of the ball
striking down through the ball that
would be just the same thing like you do
on the fairway so make it a little
easier tee it up only like half a
centimeter which makes it easier to hit
the ball for a starter you want the ball
to be on a little higher tee and just
knock the ball easier off the tee
now what will it change when you use a
higher tee for a better play you'll get
the ball higher up in the air it might
be useful when you play with the wind
from behind and get the ball to fly
further the other way if you hit the
ball from the ground I'll be using more
a Down stroke onto the ball and get the
ball lower in the flight and in the in
the middle I would take this very small
T height only like 5 millimeter 1/2
centimeter off the ground to make sure I
get the ball first and then hit the
grouse we will change the tee height as
well when you use another club so if I
hit a 9-iron I don't want to tee it up
that high because I already have a lot
of loft so it will help me just to tee
it up only one centimeter not as much I
will do with a 5-iron because they're
the 5-iron I can place the ball further
for which in our stands I hate that
little upward swing
to the ball without hitting the grass
making sure that I can get the ball to
the sweet spot without hitting the grass
for a starter that will make it easier
to hit that long iron in the middle of
the fairway for the better player when
he uses a 9-iron or a 5-iron he would
only take a five millimeter height tee
just to make that crispy contact with
the ball first and never have to hit the
ground before you hit the ball so if I
would hit the 5-iron just like from the
fairway without a tee get the ball to
the center of this of the stance but the
other ones I will have the ball slightly
more forwards I'll try to get that
crispy contact from a 5-iron and you get
that lower shot lower flight now move
away to divot now the ball is teed up
only five millimeter and place the ball
a little outside center to the front
foot and now I can hit that ball without
needing to hit the ground so I can swing
in off the tee without using the ground
it will fly a little higher it's gone
the same direction and it's got a little
bit more distance as well so for the
starter you actually want to have the
ball teed up a little higher to make
sure you don't need to hit the ground
you can stay a little taller and swing
more up through the ball now that ball
it's flying a lot higher and it's
actually gone further then in two shots
before because it has been hit straight
into the middle after you've hit the
shot you might find the stripe and under
solve the club telling you you've hit it
in the middle of the golf club and
that's when you've done it correctly now
you know why you should tee up your ball
and how how you should do it up for the
tee shots with your irons this is how
play golf see you next time hi welcome
back to be playing golf Hey hi welcome
to we play golf do you know why you
would change the height of your tee when
you hit an iron
because it might bake because it might
make a big difference
next time you play golf
