Abstract

The invention relates to a partially flexible disk-peg tee composed of several parts. In the assembled state, the inventive tee, owing to the disk of the lower part, allows for an automatic constant ball height for a selected golf club once the length of the upper part has been adjusted.

Composable, partially flexible plate tea with cones

It is a small item used in golf.

The first time you hit a golf course, the ball may be placed on a small rise.

It is known that the conventional elevations (teas) are made in one piece and from one material (wood or plastic).

Although there are five different lengths of plastic teas, the problem with these teas is that the ball height must be fine-tuned by feeling and feeling, because there is no tea that is adapted to the size of a particular club head.

For the drivers alone, which are used for about 70% of the tee, there are more than 10 popular brands, some with up to three model series and all with heads of different sizes, i.e. that the ball must be raised between 5 and 25 mm above the ground, depending on the size of the club head.

Since the golf ball flies 100 to more than 250 m from the tee, it must be optimally refilled with each shot, taking into account the respective club head size, because deviations in the millimeter range have serious effects on the trajectory, width and accuracy of the ball.

There is a unanimous opinion among golf instructors and professionals that the optimal ball height for a driver or other wood is determined by the fact that half of the ball protrudes beyond the top edge of the club.

But even if the player wants to deviate from it and prefers an individual ball height, the problem remains.

Since the club heads vary greatly in size, the problem was to develop a tee that was so variable that the golfer could adapt it to the type of club chosen in order to ensure the optimal ball height for each shot, regardless of sense and feeling ,

This optimal adaptation to a certain predetermined type of racket is achieved by the newly developed tee on the one hand in that the plate of the rigid lower part prevents deeper penetration into the ground and on the other hand in that the flexible upper part in length once with respect to the club head is measured and adjusted. This is done as follows: Club head height minus half the diameter of the ball (21 mm) = optimal ball height.

Example: racket head height 45 mm minus half the diameter of the ball 21 mm = optimal ball height = length of the upper part 24 mm.

Claims

Composable, partially flexible plate tea for automatically constant ball height insemination, characterized in that

1. that the rigid lower part, with its wedge anchor serving as a flight lock, can only be inserted into the ground as far as the wreath, which is placed around a peg, and is characterized in that

2. that the flexible upper part to be placed on it, which can be adjusted to the millimeter length by appropriate shortening to the selected golf club head, with the result that the once determined by optimally determined ball height is automatically and constantly guaranteed with each new stroke without the golfer depends on his sense of proportion and feeling when determining the ball height.
