Golf Tee Aid

Abstract

The invention relates to a golf tee aid, which limits the flight range of the golf tee from the player after making the strike. For this purpose, a connector is provided, which is an elastic cord with an attachment loop in one end and two elastic loopsan anchoring loop and a loop for a thickeningat the other end of the connector, and a thickening at the end of the connector. The anchoring loop is intended for inserting the tee used for anchoring and applying it as an anchoring aid that is pushed into the ground. The thickening together with the loop for the thickening form a fastening device for the removable fastening aid. The removable fastening aid is intended for fastening the connector to a separate anchoring aid, which bears a load. The aid can be used with tees of different lengths and thicknesses.

EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0013] The golf tee aid comprises a connector 1 in the form of an elastic cord between the golf tee 3 and a separate anchoring device 9 and/or the tee 10 used for anchoring.

[0014] One end of the connector 1 features a golf tee attachment loop 2 for attaching the connector 1 to the golf tee 3. The connector 1 is attached to the golf tee 3 in such a way that the tee is inserted into the golf tee attachment loop 2, and then the golf tee 3 is inserted into the ground (natural grass or artificial turf).

[0015] At the other end of the connector 1, there are two loopsan anchoring loop 4 and a thickening loop 6with a thickening 5 at the end of the connector 1. The thickening 5 is inserted through the thickening loop 6 to form a fastening device 7 where the fastening aid 8 can be attached. The fastening aid 8 can be a hook-and-loop strap, a carabiner hook, or a separate cord or string, among other options. The fastening aid 8 is intended for attaching the connector 1 to a weight that serves as a standalone anchoring device 9. Fastening aid 8 is detachable from the connector 1 and the separate anchoring device 9. The standalone nature of the anchoring device means that it is not permanently attached to the connector 1, and it can be any external object (not part of the golf tee aid kit), such as a basket for golf balls, a stand for golf equipment bags, a water bottle, or another convenient item. The anchoring device 9 must be heavier than the golf tee 3.

[0016] Inside the fastening device 7, there is an anchoring loop 4 on the connector 1, intended for anchoring the tee 10 used for anchoring. The connector 1 is fastened to the tee 10 used for anchoring in such a way that the tee 10 used for anchoring is inserted through the anchoring loop 4 and then inserted into the ground (natural grass or artificial turf).

The Connector 1 is an Elastic Silicone Strap

[0017] The golf tee attachment loop 2 of the connector 1 and the anchor loop 4 are elastic, making them suitable for use with commonly used tees, including tees of different lengths and thicknesses (both for natural grass and artificial grass (flat-based) tees det 3 and det 10). The flat-based 1 can be used either with the separate anchoring tool 9 or with the anchoring tee 10, or with both simultaneously. For example, if there is no separate anchoring tool 9 with sufficient weight available, using the anchoring tee 10 provides additional anchoring.

[0018] The golf tee aid's elastic cord 1, along with the golf tee attachment loop 2, anchor loop 4, thickener 5 and thickener loop 6, and the resulting fastener 7, all of which are elastic, constitute a flexible and comprehensive solution that allows for even distribution of tensile force, enabling the use of both short tees (det 3) and long tees (det 10), which also come in various thicknesses.

[0019] The golf tee aid according to the invention is easy to carry and practical to use since it can be easily attached to a convenient separate object (anchoring object). This makes it especially comfortable for the user when practicing hitting golf balls off the tee, as the tee won't fly far from the player after the swing. Additionally, this aid can be used on artificial grass (flat-based tees).
