ABSTRACT:
A golf tee is shown and described which provides a variety of benefits. The ball rest is disposed in a forward direction to provide more time and space for the club head to travel prior to impact with the ball. The ball rest also includes channels for dispelling or exhausting air generated by the moving club head for improved ball/club head contact. The stem is curved arcuately for facilitating the insertion of the tee in the ground as well as insuring that the tee exits the ground in a reliably forward direction to facilitate the finding of the tee after the ball is struck. The tee stem also can provide a finger rest to facilitate insertion of the tee into the ground and an optical alignment aid to assist the golfer in lining up the shot. The stem of the tee may also be equipped with barbs or hooks to secure the position of the tee in the ground. The curved stem also enables the tee to be used as a ball mark repair tool.
