ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an apparatus for automatically teeing up golf balls having a hopper, a teeing up device and a control panel. The hopper is operatively connected to the teeing up device to supply golf balls to the automatic teeing up device. The teeing up device comprises a piston moving between a lowermost and an uppermost position within a guide cylinder below the ground level. Golf balls are selected and allowed on a tee one at the time. The tee is adjustable in height to simulate a tee off lie or a fairway lie. A detector is located under the tee to detect the presence of a golf ball on the tee to automatically tee up another golf ball when needed. The control panel activates, controls or deactivates the automatic teeing up device. Also disclosed is a kit for practicing golf having targets posted in a driving range at different distances from the tee off, a device comprising an arrow spun on a board around choices of target for randomly choosing one of these targets and an apparatus for automatically teeing up the golf balls. The kit and the apparatus are intended both for indoor and outdoor use in a driving range or a simulated golf course. Furthermore, the kit is intended to allow a golfer to practice precise golf shots in terms of distance and direction.
