- Portable Design: Compact and lightweight - fits easily into a standard bat bag for on-the-go training.
- Three Height Range Options: Choose from Low Ball (16-23"), Youth (20-32"), or Adult/Standard (26-43") to match any hitter's needs.
Height Options & Which to Choose
- Adjustable 16-23 inch (Low Ball): Designed for low-pitch training, this range is ideal for working on inside-the-zone low ball contact. Best for players of any age who want to practice driving the low pitch.
- Adjustable 20-32 inch (Youth/Short - Ages 8 and below): Sized specifically for younger, smaller hitters. The lower range keeps the tee at the right height for children 8 and under, helping build proper swing mechanics from the start.
- Adjustable 26-43 inch (Adult/Standard - Ages 9 and up): The most versatile range, covering older youth through adult hitters. This is the go-to choice for the majority of players - from travel ball kids to high school, college, and beyond.

FAQ
Which height option should I choose for my child?
For kids ages 8 and under, go with the Youth/Short model (20-32"). For players ages 9 and up - including older youth, high school, and adult hitters - the Adult/Standard (26-43") is the right pick. If you're specifically focused on training low-in-the-zone pitches for a player of any age, the Low Ball (16-23") is made for that purpose.
Can this tee be used for both baseball and softball?
Yes. The Tanner Tee Original is designed for use with both baseballs and softballs, as well as tee balls. The Flextop accommodates the different ball sizes across all three sports.
How does the one-handed height adjustment work?
The Tanner Tee uses a simple telescoping steel stem system that you can raise or lower with one hand and lock into position quickly. This makes mid-session adjustments fast and easy without needing to stop and fiddle with knobs or tools.
Is the Tanner Tee Original portable enough to bring to the field?
Absolutely. The tee weighs approximately 6 lbs and is compact enough to fit inside a standard bat bag. It's a favorite among players who want a pro-quality tee they can take to the cage, the field, or use at home.
How durable is the Flextop over time?
The hand-rolled rubber Flextop is built to handle consistent, heavy use. Rubber naturally flexes on contact rather than cracking, which helps it hold up through thousands of swings. If the Flextop ever does wear out, Tanner offers replacement tops separately.
