ABSTRACT:
An improved practice golf tee construction comprising an integrally formed base and a hollow stem portion vertically extending above said base and having an open top end forming a seat to receive a golf ball in a teed position. The side wall of the stem portion includes a pair of spaced openings or slots having outer edges extending downwardly from the open top of the stem and define a resilient strip portion of the side wall between the outer edges which is resiliently movable between a vertical position and an inwardly deflected position. This construction permits a golf ball to be manipulated into engagement with the resilient strip to deflect it inwardly and move the ball into engagement with the outer edges of the spaced slots which form an inclined ramp to guide the ball upwardly onto the seat of the stem portion whereupon the strip springs back to its normal vertical position to aid in stabilizing the ball in a teed position.
