  • Publication number: 20100130310
    Abstract: A device which positions a golf tee to a predetermined height above the ground. The cup of a standard golf tee fits into a circular recess within the head of the device while the shaft of the tee is held against a groove along the body of the device. The device is a rigid, unitary piece with the vertical distance from the circular recess to the bottom of the body equal to the desired height of the tee above the ground. With the tee held in place within the device, a length of the tee's shaft extends past the bottom of the tee-setting device. The golfer applies pressure to the top of the tee-setting device to push the point of the tee into the ground until the bottom of the tee-setting device meets the ground. Upon removal of the tee-setting device, the tee remains positioned at exactly the desired height.
