Once you purchase or recieve the FIRGIRTEE, cut the ziptie securing it to the packaging. Before placing it in the ground, select a tee of your choice. Most wooden and plastic tee's are compatible with the FIRGIRTEE, as are most brush tee's. Cross tee's can damage this product and are not recomended.

Use the FIRGIRTEE to set the tee hight if you are using a driver, fairway wood or a hybrid club from the tee box. Put the tee in the ground and aim the arrow in the direction you want the ball to start on. The clubface should be square to the tool as seen above. You can then stand behind the ball to make sure you still like the line. This is a measure twice and cut once type of an approach to setting up to the ball. 

With the target line selected, address the ball and square your shoulders, and your hips to the club face.  Now that your aligned to the target, and your clubface is square to your body and the ball, you can make a confident swing. 

When playing from the tee box with an iron, place your FIRGIRTEE about 8 to 10 inches behind the ball as pictured above. Use it to select a target line the same way you do from the tee box with your woods. Squre your body and the clubface to the FIRGIRTEE like you did with your driver and swing away. 

PROTIP: Play with the distance you place the FIRGIRTEE behind the ball with your irons. Some players put it one or two iches behind the ball, because they feel it helps them swing down to promote hitting ball then grass.

With iron's from the fairway you want to place the FIRGIRTEE behind the ball around 8 to 10 inches like you would on the tee box with an iron. Repeat the alignment process and swing for the upper deck.  You can also use the FIRGIRTEE when your lining up your put.  Place it directly behind the ball  on the green with the flat side closest to the ball, and choose the line you want to start the roll on. Then just place your putter directly ontop of the FIRGIRTEE when your over the ball. Square the clubface with the wings and then make your putting stroke.  

Select the tee position in the FIRGIRTEE that suits your eyes best.  If you like the clubface near the ball at address, then push the tee in the hole closets to the middle of the FIRGIRTEE.  

If you like starting with the clubface away from the ball at address, then push your tee towards the flat edge of the tool.  This is a players option, so test it out and see which one works best for you and let us know. We'd love your feedback. 

Above is an image of the first ever FIRGIRTEE prototype. If it looks at all like a childrens toy to you that's because it is. While playing with his youngest daughter the owner of FIRGIRTEE GOLF, Enzo Chiovitti Jr., got the idea of a golf aid from this very toy. There is not much of a resemblance between these two items anymore, but they yielded similar results through testing. 

The first true working prototype was created via a CAD design and then a few 3D printed parts. Thin wooden tees would just barely fit into the plastic sample parts, and although they worked they would shatter when hit by the club. Besides bits of plastic flying everywhere and making a mess on the range and course, there were plenty of other issues with the first few designs.  A major oversight was the visual difference  at address for a golfer at 5.5' vs. 6.5'. It was a step-at-a-time process, and sometimes two step backwards before any real traction was made.

The wings used to align the club face with the first designs were too small see when using woods, and multiple plastics and high density foam prototypes were also failing through testing. There was no way to use the tool in the fairway or with irons from the tee box either. At one point the FIRGIRTEE was a two peice design but over a few short months plenty changed. The material, longer wings were added, two holes for the tee position, and a one peice driver and iron friendly design was beginning to take shape.  

Once a good one piece design for woods and irons was established, all that remained was solving the durability issue. Clubs were destroying all the different plastic prototypes, and the foam prototypes were only maginally better. Eventually rubber made the FIRGIRTEE resiliant enough to not only the clubs forces, but to the eliments as well. The product would need to be resilient to mud and water for sure. Places we amatures find our balls far too often. 

The first 100 balls tested were hit in the backyard of a friends house into an open field, and after that a few tousand more at the driving range. Eventually more people were trying it on the  range and on the course with amazing results. It was time to make a push, and that meant the priority would need to shift from protopypes and testing, to manufacturing.

With over a thousand amature golfers trying the FIRGIRTEE before opening shop, and each of those golfers finding more fairways and greens in regulation, it is time to make FIRGIRTEE available to the world. Our greatest sucess comes from word of mouth.  Try it for yourself and let us know how it works for you. From everyone at FIRGIRTEE Golf, may all your fairways be wide, your hazrds be few, and your greens be slow and reseptive.
