Make Your Mark With Personalized Golf Tees

If you're into golf, why not get yourself some personalized golf tees? They can have your name blazoned along the stems and a fun picture on the top of the tee. You could also consider giving them as gifts to your friends, family, or business customers.

For those who are not familiar with golf equipment or terminology, a tee is a small device that is pegged into the ground to support a golf ball in a suitable position to give a golfer maximum distance when driving onto the fairway. The upper section has a concave shape for this purpose.

Traditional tees were made of wood, and some still are. The disadvantage with wooden tees is that they frequently break. It is estimated that a golfer will break at least 4 wooden tees during a golf game of 18 holes. This is costly for the golfer, but all the broken pieces of wood are very unsightly on the golf course and cause damage to the club's lawn mowers.

Therefore most golfers today use plastic tees which are available in an array of bright colors. The tapered shank section is much stronger so breakages are substantially minimized. This durability makes them ideal for personalizing.

A golf tee is able to be personalized on two sections - the stem and the concave top part. The stem, which is fairly lengthy, can be personalized with a name of a person or a company slogan. The top section is perfect for a logo or any other appropriate graphic.

Personalized golf tees can be used on any club golf course. You might encounter a problem at a corporate sponsored event however. This is because the sponsoring company would probably not be too happy for you to use a tee advertising some other business. It would be advisable to check the rules beforehand.
