The Teeing Ground

I play golf with a lot of different people.  I bet over the course of a year I play golf with 50 or more different people.  That is a lot.

 

 

I would bet that MORE than half the people I play with tee the ball up IN FRONT of the tee markers.  Usually just an inch or so, but without a doubt, in front of the markers.  As you can see by the illustration, you are allowed to go back as much as two club lengths.  From one marker to the other, and two club lengths deep.  That is the size of the 'tee box'.  You can go back as much as two club lengths, but NOT one inch in front!  That's just one more thing I see on the course that drives me bonkers!
