Question:"What is the correct grade for the surface of a tee?"
Source of Question:New York
Answer/Response:"As far as the game is concerned no particular grade has been designated for the surface of a tee. It is customary, however, to grade the tee so that it slopes away from the green. This grade, however, should not be noticeable to the eye. As far as turf maintenance and convenience to players are concerned it is well to have a slight grade on a tee in order that the surface water may drain away quickly. A slope of 2 to 3 per cent is the usual grade on teeing areas and is sufficient to take care of drainage."
