Me thinks that there are too many here that think that your average executive golfer is a really good golfer. I would have to disagree that the use of a tee does not help keep the tee boxes in better shape.

I am more of an average golfer . Handicap of 16 . I golf with my neighbors every week. 24 of us go out every sunday (couples). And I can say that 80% of our players are trying NOT to take a divot on the drive on the exec courses. That includes myself. Again , that may not be the best way to hit an iron off a tee, but I am talking reality of the skill of your average exec player, not what your best golfers actually do. Some of our ladies even tee it up in the fairway and in the sand trap.
