Abstract: An automated golf practice tee which is a totally self-contained unit which includes a ball storage hopper (12) and the means (13 and 15) whereby a ball is dispensed from the hopper and moved into position on the tee. It features the capability to preselect any desired tee height ranging from a simulated fairway position, through five intermediate levels, up to an including one and one-half inches. It will repetitively maintain the selected tee height through successive cycles until the golfer himself selects another position. The said unit also features a cycle time of less than ten seconds between the time one ball is hit and the next one is in position. The device is primarily designed for underground installation at outdoor driving ranges, thus it is fabricated of weather resistant materials and provided with moisture barriers. It may, however, also be used at indoor ranges or residences.
