Description

ABSTRACT:
A golf-ball tee-off device for training a golfer to keep his body stationary when teeing-off a ball. The device includes a teeing platform which is caused to move downward in response to the weight of a tee and golf ball thereon. Downward movement of the platform actuates a device which causes continuous rotation of a gear including a circular array of light transmitting windows of different colors.
When the golf ball is driven from the platform, mechanism is provided to cause the platform to be raised to its elevated position and halt the rotation of the gear, while producing a momentary light under one of the light transmitting windows, the color of which can be observed by the golfer if his eyes were retained on the golf ball for the proper time period.
