ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a golf ball and tee positioning device which includes a gripper disposed at one end of an elongated shaft for manipulating golf balls and a tee inserter disposed at the other end of the shaft for inserting a tee into the ground. The tee inserter includes a rod extending from the shaft, a barrel slideably disposed on the rod, and a pair of spring biased jaws pivotably attached to the barrel. Each jaw member has a mandible portion which extends into a slot formed in the barrel for engaging a tee located within the barrel. The tee is inserted into the ground by placing the tee inserter against the ground and pressing the rod into the barrel so that it engages the head of the tee. This forces the tee past the spring biased jaws, setting the tee into the ground.
