Benefits of technology

"The present invention is an adjustable golf tee set that allows for adjustment of the elevation of the tee nail in the ground to meet different ball-striking needs. The set includes a tee nail and a support that stably holds the tee nail on the ground. The support comprises a base block and a number of annular spacer blocks of different thicknesses that control the nailing depth and elevation of the tee nail. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a versatile and stable adjustable golf tee set that allows for accurate ball-striking."

Problems solved by technology

If the golf tee is not set at a suitable elevation, the player will be difficult to hit the right part of the golf ball accurately.
However, when fastening a golf tee to the ground, the player cannot accurately control the insertion depth of the golf tee in the ground, and the elevation of the golf tee may be measured roughly by feeling.
In this case, the player may be unable to hit the right part of the golf ball accurately, resulting in a low performance.
Further, after the player hit the ball, the golf tee may jump far away, and the player or the caddy may have to spend a lot of time in finding the golf tee.

Embodiment Construction

[0020]Referring to FIGS. 1˜3, an adjustable golf tee set in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention is shown comprised of a tee nail 1, a support 2 and a connecting cord 3.

[0021]The tee nail 1 comprises a pointed shank 13, a cup-like head 12, and a shoulder 11 axially connected between the pointed shank 13 and the cup-like head 12. The cup-like head 12 has a top recess 121 smoothly curved inwards for holding a golf ball. By means of the pointed shank 13, the tee nail1 can easily be fastened to the ground.

[0022]The support 2 comprises a base block 21 and a number of annular spacer members 23. The base block 21 and the annular spacer members 23 each have a center through hole 24 approximately equal to the outer diameter of the pointed shank 13 of the tee nail 1 but smaller than the outer diameter of the shoulder 11 of the tee nail 1. Therefore, the base block 21 or the base block 21 with one annular spacer member 23 or a number or all of the annular spacer members ...

Abstract

An adjustable golf tee set is disclosed to include a tee nail for fastening to the ground in a golf course to support a golf ball for hitting, a base block for supporting the tee nail stably on the ground, and a connecting cord for securing the support to a ground anchor. A plurality of annular spacer blocks of different thicknesses are selectively used and mounted on the base block around a pointed shank of the tee nail to adjust the elevation of the tee nail subject to different ball-striking needs.

Description

[0001]This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan patent application number 096107261 filed on Mar. 2, 2007.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a golf tee for use in playing a golf game and more particularly, to an adjustable golf tee set, which allows adjustment of the elevation of the tee nail above the ground to fit different ball-striking needs and, which uses a connecting cord to connect the support supporting the tee nail to a ground anchor so that the tee nail will not be lost after each application.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]When playing the game of golf, many factors affect the performance. Because every golf player has a different physical body size, arm span, method of grip and golf club swinging posture and because the ground surface may be uneven, the elevation of the golf tee must be properly adjusted so that the player can hit the center of the golf ball accurately. If the golf t...
