Backed by Research. Built for Consistency.
Tee height influences launch conditions, spin, and distance.
The challenge has never been knowing that. The challenge has always been reproducing it on every drive.
RIGHT HEIGHT turns a variable into a repeatable setup.
Why Tee Height Matters
USGA and R&A mechanical-golfer testing found that reducing tee height changed launch conditions and reduced driving distance under controlled testing. Depending on the club and ball combination, the reduction at the lowest tested height ranged from approximately 2 to 13 yards.
The takeaway is not simply “higher is better.” The takeaway is that tee height can affect launch conditions. Consistency begins before the swing ever starts.

Every Millimeter Matters
Move the reference to see an illustrative model of how launch conditions can change as tee height changes.
When tee height changes, impact location and launch conditions can change.
Illustrative relationship only—not measured RIGHT HEIGHT product data or a prediction for an individual golfer. Exact results vary by golfer, equipment, delivery, and impact location.
Designed Around Launch Conditions
Consistency
Built for golfers seeking repeatable tee height and consistent starting conditions.
- Consistency
- Predictability
- Repeatability
Distance Setup
Positioned for golfers looking to encourage a higher launch and a more upward strike.
- Higher launch conditions
- Carry potential
- A more aggressive setup
Neither reference guarantees a performance outcome. The purpose is to make a chosen starting height easier to reproduce.
The Data Aligns
Robot Testing
USGA/R&A testing found that reducing impact location by 0.6 inches reduced robot driving distance by approximately 2 to 13 yards, depending on the club and ball combination.

Tee height can influence angle of attack, launch angle, spin, speed, and impact location. Together, those variables shape driver performance.
Real Golfer Testing
In a limited Golf Digest test with one skilled golfer, the high tee produced more carry while the low tee produced tighter average dispersion. The publication noted that other golfers may experience different results.

Repeat the Setup.
Golfers spend countless hours refining their swing. Yet one of the few variables before the swing even begins is often estimated by eye.
RIGHT HEIGHT provides consistent visual reference points so golfers can intentionally reproduce their preferred tee height, shot after shot.
