You can trim these lightweight tees to height. Interesting idea. I suppose that since they sit on the ground, rather than being stuck IN the ground, they would provide less resistance.

I recall a number of years ago watching a golfer assiduously (hey, I just had to use that word) looking for something in front of the tee. Eventually he walked off. After I teed-off, I sort of looked around, wondering what he might have been looking for. I suspect it was the plastic tee I found. It had a circular back section that encased the ball (non-conforming to USGA rules). I believe the idea was that the plastic hood prevented the club from imparting any spin to the ball.
The point of this monologue is that these fancy tees cost a fair amount of money compared to our old-fashioned wooden pegs. I hate to think of the time a round of golf will take if we all start using tees that cost $1.00 each.
The tee is made in Japan by Daiya golf and is the number one selling tee there…2 million packages last year. You can purchase them at http://www.aerosparkgolftee.com..they do reduce side spin in tests done in Japan..one tee usually last 3 to 4 rounds.
