ABSTRACT:
A golf ball/tee placement device including a vertically elongate support rod having a manually-engageable grip part fixed adjacent an upper end thereof. A tee support member is fixed to and projects sidewardly from the support rod adjacent a lower end thereof. The tee support member has a tee receiving slot extending vertically therethrough and opening sidewardly through a side edge thereof. A ball positioning member is mounted on the support rod closely adjacent but spaced vertically upwardly from the tee support member. The ball positioning member is rotatable relative to the rod about a longitudinal axis thereof. A ground-engaging member is mounted on the ball positioning member for engaging the ground to maintain the ball positioning member stationary while permitting the support rod and the tee support member to be rotated generally about the longitudinal axis. A ball/tee combination can be supported between the ball positioning and tee support members and the tee inserted into the ground, after which the support rod and tee support member are horizontally rotated about the longitudinal axis while the ball positioning member remains stationarily engaged with the ball, following which the placement device is lifted upwardly to disengage the ball.
