ABSTRACT:
An improved golf ball teeing device provides a method and apparatus for conveniently and automatically positioning golf balls on a tee (38) so they can be hit by a golf club in the hands of a golfer. The golfer can activate the entire operation with a golf club from an upright position or stance. Upon activation of the golf ball release and transfer assembly, a golf ball from a single line of golf balls supplied by a golf ball dispenser follows a path from golf ball receiver (60) to a downward sloping guide track (36) and a runner provided by the two side arms of a pivot arm assembly (43 and 49) where the golf ball is centered upon a tee (38). A spring (51) provides tension on the pivot arm assembly. The teeing device is designed for use with two different sizes of mats with fixed tees. Both of these mats (39 and 81) have an opening which allows the teeing device to be so positioned within the opening at the outer end of the pivot arm assembly (43 and 49) that the tee (38) will be properly aligned. One of these mats is small for portability, while the other is much larger to enable the golfer to stand upon the mat while hitting golf balls in practice sessions.
