Abstract
A golf aid device includes a shaft, a tee and ball holder at a lower end of the shaft, a handle at an upper end of the shaft, and a support structure. The holder is movable between a closed state wherein a ball and tee may be held thereby, and an open position wherein the ball and tee may be removed therefrom. The handle includes at least one button which when depressed is configured for moving the holder between the closed state and open position. The support structure includes three legs, wherein each leg is configured to rotate from a closed position to an open state. The open state rotates the legs away from a longitudinal axis of the shaft and the closed position rotates the legs towards the longitudinal axis. The legs extend past a bottom of the holder when the legs are in the closed position.

A golf aid device for placing in the ground a tee and a golf ball thereon, comprising:
- a shaft;
- a tee and ball holder at a lower end of the shaft, movable between a closed state wherein a ball and tee are held thereby, and an open position wherein the tee and ball are removable therefrom;
- and
- a handle at an upper end of the shaft, the handle comprising at least one button which when depressed is configured for moving the ball and tee holder between the closed state and open position,
- a support structure comprising at least three legs, wherein each leg is configured to rotate from a closed position to an open state, wherein the open state rotates the legs away from a longitudinal axis of the shaft and the closed position rotates the legs towards the longitudinal axis, wherein the legs extend past a bottom of the holder when the legs are in the closed position.
A golf aid device, comprising:
- a shaft;
- a tee and ball holder at a lower end of the shaft, movable between a closed state wherein a ball and tee may be held thereby, and an open position wherein the ball and tee may be removed therefrom;
- a manually control at an upper end of the shaft, configured to move the holder between the closed state and the open position, wherein upon moving the holder to the closed state, the device is configured to bias the holder to remain in the closed state;
- and
- a support structure comprising at least three legs, wherein each leg is configured to rotate from a closed position to an open state, wherein the open state rotates the legs away from a longitudinal axis of the shaft and the closed position rotates the legs towards the longitudinal axis, wherein the legs extend past a bottom of the holder when the legs are in the closed position.
