## Resource

This week on Off TRAQ, we break down one of golf’s most overlooked decisions: choosing the right tee box. Most golfers play from the wrong tees — and it affects scoring, pace, and the way the course is meant to be played. We walk through different ways to pick your tees, what yardages matter, and the ego traps every amateur falls into. We also have some fun with a big hypothetical: If you could steal one skill from any pro golfer — driver, irons, wedges, or putting — what are you taking to improve your game? And finally, we share our honest thoughts on TopGolf — just our experiences and how it fits into the golf world today. Come hang out for a mix of real golfer talk, practical tips, and the usual Off TRAQ debates. Chapters Tee Boxes: Why Most Golfers Choose Wrong The One Pro Skill We’d Steal Our Thoughts on Topgolf
