Why is a tee shot so important?
: A famous golfer once said that we played for bogie following a bad tee shot. A tee shot needs to be treated just as importantly as a putting and chipping game. During a tee shot one can hold the ball and set it on an elevated tee to give the best chance to hit the ball clean and far (or whatever distance planned to have). This is the only time one can set the ball perfectly, and this is a situation to take advantage of. One could have a perfect stance, a perfect club, a perfect golf swing, and a perfect ball, but if the ball hasnt been teed properly, it is a perfect opportunity wasted.
