ABSTRACT:
A golf ball delivery system includes a tee holder adapted to support a golf ball tee upon the ground and a golf ball dispenser coupled with the tee holder. The golf ball dispenser includes a container for holding a plurality of golf balls, a support rotatably supporting the container horizontally above the ground and a delivery chute rigidly attached to the container and defining a golf ball transporting passage. The container has first and second ends and an outlet hole in the first end. The first end of the container is disposed closer to the ground than the second end such that golf balls within the container gravitate toward the first end. The delivery chute has a golf ball receiving end rigidly attached to the first end of the container with the passage in communication with the outlet hole and has a golf ball delivering end. The delivery chute is adapted to be engaged by the head of a golf club to manually move the delivery chute to rotate the container between a first rotational position wherein the outlet hole is positioned such that a golf ball within the container enters the passage of the delivery chute by gravity and a second rotational position wherein the golf ball delivering end is positioned below the golf ball receiving end such that the golf ball within the passage is delivered onto the golf ball tee by gravity from the golf ball delivering end of the delivery chute.
