The tees at my range arent tall enough, I like the ball to be nice and high so I can catch it on the upswing. While I can still get it in the air, I'm not as consistent with the lower tees, usually half- three quarters the height of my drives on the course. So I was wondering where I can buy taller range tees, rubber tees I mean.

I had the same problem , purchased this

after much searching on internet this is all i could find

http://www.direct-golf.co.uk/product/product.asp?product_ID=1803

the largest tee is 2 inches , tees up less when actually to the mat I still found this too low ,aaagh.

After venting my frustrations to a friend he got me a 7cm rubber tee which is just perfect . When I asked were he got it he said "don't ask I just aquired it" nuff said.

Think some ranges are needing to wake up too the fact that modern big face drivers need to tee up high

Try this:

Not sure if it works but looks like a good idea.

I have the opisite problem, range tees are too tall.
The driving tees are about 2 inches above my club face, the wood tees are just slighty too low for a driver and with a fairway wood way too tall.

I often end up just playing from the mat to get any benifit

Found this to:

http://www.golfonline.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=61_106&products_id=1168

it is a selection of different sized tees and it tells you what the sizes are.

Ufford Pk range where I practice used to have adjustable height "screw in" rubber tees so you could adjust the tee exactly tyo your preference.

Basically...imagine a normal range rubber tee which is internally threaded, then you have a large rubber tee with matching thred which then screws inside of it.

Great idea but unfortunately they suffered more from wear and tear than the normal tee.

The one that Steve has highlighted on ebay is the Mutts Nutts. I bought one ages ago, and it is a fantastic piece of equipment for the range. Just don't do what I did, and leave it behind you. I keep meaning to buy another one of these, so thanks Steve, I'll have one of those. ;o)

I just wedge a 'normal' tee in the gap at the back of the rubber tee between it and the mat. At my course the range does not have any rubber tees at all and you use your own tees.

I had this problem, however I was unemployed at the time so had some time to kill, I bought a short iron rubber tee

1)Greased up a normal plastic tee.
2)PVA'ed the inside of the rubber tee then filled the new rubber tee with bathroom sealent
3)Put the greased tee in the sealent until it becomes tacky, at this point the hole stays in the sealent from the tee but does slightly close up. I had tried using blue tac which kind of worked. To help the sealent bond to the ruber you can put some score marks into the rubber as a key AND/OR apply some PVA to help even more.
4) Once dried you can take it to the range with you and tee up with a real tee (use plastic as wooden break quick).

Like I say i had some time on my hands when I did this some time ago.
