Knocking over Ball via Tee

How well will the ball tees be mounted? We are wondering if we could hit the tee to knock the ball over.

We do not have detailed BOM field prints. With that strategy, you risk being disqualified for damaging the field. I would advise against it.

Re: Knocking over Ball via Tee

I was looking in the gallery and saw this. There is a sheet of lexan or somethin of that nature in front of the 2 tees, so we can not just hit the tee and knock the ball off. We had hoped to do the same thing you did. To the best of my knowledge this is not in the field layout.
