Abstract: The Rite-Hite Golf Tee is a golf tee that has a marked shank so that insertion of the tee can be made to a known depth each time by visually seeing the appropriate mark. Any mark on the golf tee (lines, numbers, letters, symbols, raised, depressed, colored sections) can be used to assure consistent golf tee insertion depth. Known golf tee insertion depth equates to known golf ball height above the ground and improved control of the flight of the golf ball.
