  • Publication number: 20050245330
    Abstract: A tee assembly for teeing a golf ball in a playing field uses a tubular elastomeric golf ball to support the ball at one end and fitted with a threaded nut at the opposite end for forming an internally threaded base. A threaded elastomeric shaft is anchored against rotation about an elongated central axis to the flanged base beneath a playing field to resiliently extend in an upstanding manner through an aperture in the playing field along a distance sufficient to correspond to the selectable range of elevations. The external threads of elastomeric shaft are in mating engagement with the internally threaded base to resiliently restore the elastomeric golf ball support to the selected elevation above such a playing filed. An abutment mounted on a protruding terminal end of the elastomeric shaft prevents disengagement of the tubular golf ball support from the elastomeric shaft.
