Abstract: Apparatus is provided for placing a golf ball and tee in the ground without the need for the golfer to bend over or kneel. The apparatus includes first and second elongated shafts laterally spaced apart and substantially parallel to one another. The first and second shafts have respective first and second handles proximate one another so as to be grippable by a golfer's hand. The first shaft includes a tee-holding foot member proximate an end thereof and the second shaft includes a ball-holding cupped member proximate an end thereof in opposing relation to the tee-holding foot member such that the golf ball and tee can be held between the tee-holding member and ball-holding member. The second shaft is movable relative to the first shaft and includes a coil spring for biasing the second shaft and ball-holding member thereon toward the tee-holding member on the first shaft to hold the golf ball and tee therebetween.
