Tee Markers

We put the new Laurel and Laurel/Legends tee markers out on the course this week, and heard several positive comments.  Like the rest of the granite markers, there are challenges when moving and placing them.  

In a way, setting the tee markers involves more than just three dimensions.  That is, the marker itself should be placed into the ground at a uniform depth, while not tilted forward or back, not leaning sideways, not toed in or out, nor left or right.  Then there is making sure the markers are parallel to each other, while being perpendicular to the desired line of flight.

To summarize, there are many opportunities to get it wrong, and only one way to get it right.  At 12 pounds each, we try hard to get the markers set properly the first time--no need to be lifting them twice if you don't have to!
