Abstract: A batting practice tee has a tee portion and a targeting apparatus in association with the tee portion. The tee portion has a support structure and a ball holder. The support structure has a base end and a distal end. The ball holder is connected to distal end of the support structure and has a ball receiving opening. The targeting apparatus has a light transmitter and an angle indicator in association with the light transmitter. The light transmitter is positioned adjacent the ball holder and produces a light stream to project a target onto a surface. The angle indicator provides a human-perceivable indication of an angle of the light relative to a horizontal plane.
