Should You Tee the Ball Up on Par 3's or Hit it Without a Tee?

Jeff asks Maria Palozola, of if you should tee the ball up on par 3 holes, or if it’s ok to hit the ball off the ground without a tee. Maria explains to Jeff that it is really a matter of personal preference.

She does, however, mention that many skilled players like to hit the ball directly off the ground, without using a tee, but only because they consistently make clean contact and hit down on the ball through the shot. Maria suggests that the average amateur, those with higher handicaps, use a tee as it can help make it easier to hit the ball in the sweet spot.

Finally, Maria suggests tee’ing the ball up just slightly above the grass, not so much that it can cause you to hit the ball high on the clubface.
