Starting point of a disc golf hole.

The disc golf tee (also referred to as the 'tee pad' or 'tee box') is usually a rectangular shape measuring 2 x 4 m (6.5 x 13.5 ft) but may be smaller. Some tees are circular.

Common surfaces are concrete, compacted (stone dust) or paving stones enclosed in a wood frame; rubber mats or artificial turf.

How to map

Add this tag to the starting point node of the path disc_golf=hole.

Tags to use in combination

  • surface=*
    • surface=concrete
    • surface=paving_stones;bricks;plastic;rubber

Tee color

Use the key tee=* for the tee color — the same key golf uses, and the key the iD editor's tee-color field writes. Do not use tee:colour or colour for this; both occur in older data but only fragment the tagging (as of July 2026: tee 175, tee:colour 67, colour 22).

Although the disc golf color scheme is different than Key:tee golf scheme, it is similar (with the most common being 'red', 'white' and 'blue' for short/medium/long). The official disc golf color scheme is defined by the PDGA[1], but casual courses often use their own local colors — tag what is physically marked on the tee.

  • tee=*
    • tee=gold
    • tee=blue
    • tee=pink
    • tee=white
    • tee=red
    • tee=green
    • tee=purple

One physical tee pad frequently serves several layouts. In that case list all of its colors, semicolon-separated (the standard OSM multi-value convention):

  • tee=white;blue
