Stinger Tees 3" Competition - Retail Pack (75ct) The thinner head and shaft of the Stinger Golf Tee minimize golf club obstruction and deflection, thereby maximizing club head stability upon impact. This improves golf ball flight direction as well as distance. Because of their ultra-streamlined shape, Stinger Tees go into hard ground much easier than regular tees, and the sharp tip of the Stinger tee is perfect for cleaning dirty club head grooves. Unlike regular "painted" tees, the special natural finish of the Stinger Tee won't leave ugly, hard to remove marks on the bottom of club heads. In addition to their performance benefits, environmentally, Stinger Golf Tees are the most "golf course friendly" tees on the market today. Because of their unique size, shape, and special finish, Stinger Golf Tees will biodegrade in less than half the time of regular tees (and corn tees), and Stinger Tees absolutely minimize the damage done to expensive turf cutting blades. Golf course superintendents will appreciate this. The USGA has determined that "STINGER" Golf Tees are allowable under the rules of golf.
