ABSTRACT:
A golf ball teeing device for providing golf practice through a multi-elevation tee allowing both fairway and tee shots from the same practice tee. The device consists essentially of a ball teeing means having a tee capable of being raised from its lower most position in which it receives a golf ball to various elevated positions replicating various golf shots, and a ball delivery tube to provide balls one at a time to the tee when it is in its lower most position and a hopper for supplying golf balls to the delivery tube, a photoelectric sensor to determine that a ball has been received on to the tee and a ball receptacle restraint allowing the tee to be raised to a hitting elevation without another ball possibly jamming the device and a photoelectric sensor to determine that the ball has been dislodged from the tee requiring the tee to return to its lower most position to receive another golf ball to repeat the cycle and a controller means for sensing the input from the photoelectric sensors and providing a elevation adjustment and the power to raise and lower the tee.
