Golf Simulator Tees: Check the Mat, Height and Monitor First

The right tee starts with your mat and launch monitor. If an ordinary tee already stays at the height you want, there may be no reason to replace it.

For a mat that will not hold an ordinary tee, compare a tee that sits on top with a rubber range tee designed for the mat. This is researched guidance, not a test of durability or launch-monitor accuracy.

Choose the tee type before the brand

• Ordinary tee: keep it if the mat supports it and the height suits your club.
• Rubber range tee: check its fit through the mat and the resulting height above the hitting surface.
• Mat-top tee: compare its standing height, the selected size and the tracking-system guidance.

Do not choose a pack solely from a listing photo. Measure from the hitting surface, and check what sizes the selected pack includes.

One option: BirTee Pro Speed variety pack

BirTee lists a variety pack with its available sizes in a single color. Its guidance distinguishes camera-based and radar systems. Check the product page and your launch-monitor manual rather than treating a tee as universally compatible.

This buying link opens an Amazon search because an exact pack-and-color listing has not been verified. Compare the brand, pack contents, selected color and seller before ordering. We do not present the search results as an exact matching offer.

Consider it if your mat does not support an ordinary tee and you want to compare several standing heights.

Skip it if the tees you have already fit and work with your monitor. Buying a pack does not correct a placement or alignment problem.

Alternative: a rubber range tee that fits your mat, or the ordinary tees you already use. Neither alternative is automatically suitable for every monitor.

Color can matter to a camera system

BirTee warns that lighter colors may cause misreads with some camera systems and recommends dark options in its simulator guidance. That is the tee manufacturer's guidance, not evidence that we tested every monitor. Follow your monitor manufacturer's requirements too.

Check the room and software separately

A tee is one small part of the setup. Check alignment and other accessories, your monitor's placement instructions, and the settings that affect a GSPro round before blaming inconsistent readings on the tee.
