Golf tee leveling device

Abstract

A device for placing a golf tee in a perfect vertical position. Said device consists of a body having an enlarged upper section and a tapered lower section pointing toward the ground. The bottom of the tapered lower section has a recess therein to receive a golf tee head which tee is to be pushed into the ground. The top of the enlarged upper section of the body receives a ring to which a domed glass sight glass is attached. The sight glass has a liquid therein including a bubble which will center itself in the dome when the body is perfectly horizontal. The golf tee will be placed perfectly in a vertical position when pushed into the ground and the bubble is centered in the dome. There is a lateral extension on a side of said body which has a sleeve thereon. A depth determining pin is frictionally received within the sleeve. The depth pin has markings thereon so that a predetermined depth can be achieved when the golf tee is pushed into ground.

1 . A golf tee leveling device consisting of a solid body having an: enlarged section at its upper end and a tapered section at its lower end, said lower end having a recess therein for receiving a head of a golf tee therein and to be held therein by the fingers of a player, said upper end of said body having a flat surface including a ring thereon, said ring having a sight glass thereon with a domed surface, said sight glass having a liquid therein including a bubble floating in said liquid, said bubble moving to a center position within said dome when said leveling device is in a perfect horizontal position, whereby said golf tee will be placed into the ground in a perfect vertical position when said leveling device is in a perfect horizontal position.  
   
   
       2 . The golf tee leveling device of  claim 1  including a depth gauge attached to a lateral side of said body.  
   
   
       3 . A device adapted to place a golf tee into the ground comprising a body having an enlarged upper section and a tapered lower section, said body having a lateral extension attached thereto, said lateral extension having a downwardly extending sleeve mounted thereon, said sleeve receiving an elongated depth pin therein, said golf tee placing device, when pushing a golf tee into the ground, will limit the extent of said tee being pushed into ground.  
   
   
       4 . The device of  claim 3  including depth determining markings on said depth pin.  
   
   
       5 . The device of  claim 3  including a friction fit between said sleeve and said depth pin.  
   
   
       6 . The placing device of  claim 3  including an enlarged head at the bottom of said depth pin to limit an insertion of said depth pin into the ground.
