    Abstract: The invention is a new invention type of golf tee. It is used to position a golf ball at a certain height. This golf tee comprises a golf tee having upper and lower ends and a shaft of substantially uniform diameter connecting the ends, the upper end having a cup of a substantially uniform diameter for receiving a golf ball, the lower end being tapered for insertion into a playing surface, and the composition of the tee being a combination of natural materials bound by biodegradable materials, the natural materials consisting of waste products of healthy animals which will become wetted, slick, softened, and slowly disintegrate biologically as it lays on the ground and is exposed to the moisture of the ground, turf and course water over the subsequent few days. The process of disintegration will also be hastened by the grinding and cutting effect of the mowing of the course surfaces.
