Raising the Tee Height: A Key Consideration for Golfers
When it comes to hitting a driver in golf, one question that often arises is the height of the tee. Many golfers are left puzzled, unsure of how high or low they should set it.
Traditionally, it has been advised to raise the ball to about half the height of the driver’s head. This height is believed to optimize both distance and accuracy, taking into account the sweet spot. However, Trillium Rose, an American teen educator, offers a different perspective on tee height determination. She argues that the golfer’s swing tendency should be the deciding factor.
“First, analyze your swing,” advises Rose, “and then you can determine the appropriate tee height.” Golfers who tend to hit the ball low have a better chance of finding the center of the clubface with a lower tee. If the tee is set too high, there is a risk of the club passing underneath the ball, resulting in a devastating shot. On the other hand, golfers who utilize a more upward driver angle can position the tee at a middle or higher height, achieving the desired impact through the correct swing path.
Discovering the ideal tee height for your driver requires experimentation. During practice rounds at the driving range, try out different tee heights and observe the results. It’s important to note that perfecting your golf swing is no easy task, but adjusting the tee height based on your current swing style can yield improved outcomes.

Raise half a ball higher than normal head height
Determined based on swing trend, downswing and low hitting.
Practice range Find the best possible combination through different tee heights
What golfers are curious about over the weekend is the height of the tee before hitting a driver. I’m confused about how loud I should plug it in.
It is generally known that the ball is raised about half the height of the driver’s head. This is the height to ensure distance and accuracy according to the sweet spot. But American teen educator Trillium Rose explains things a little differently. The rationale is that tee height should be determined based on the golfer’s swing tendency. Rose emphasized, “Many golfers think the tee height of their drivers should be high. But it’s time to change that mindset.”
“First calculate your swing,” advised Rose, “and then you can determine the height of the tee.” Golfers who tend to hit the ball down have a higher chance of hitting the center of the club if they set the tee low. If the tee is too high, the club can pass under the ball. It is a fatal blow. Golfers who use the appropriate driver angle to hit up can place the tee in the middle or higher. Correct impact is possible through the correct swing path.
Be careful when determining your driver’s tee height. When hitting tee shots on the driving range, you should experiment with different tee heights to find which one is right for you. The golf swing cannot be easily fixed. However, you can get better results by adjusting the tee height depending on your current swing style.
