Golfing Tee With Flexible Top

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a golf tee, and more particularly, to a golf tee in which a portion on which a ball is placed is formed of a flexible material so as to prevent the tee from being lost or damaged by being broken or displaced due to an impact applied thereto by a golf club head when making a tee shot, and which is configured to be stably fixed and to be easily stuck into/pulled out from the ground and to maintain the initial height of the ball constant so as to reduce the inconvenience of adjusting the height of the ball whenever the tee is inserted into the ground.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A golf tee comprising:
 a ball placement unit configured to place a ball thereon; and   an insertion unit configured to be inserted into the ground,   wherein the ball placement unit includes a through hole formed in a lower portion thereof, and   the insertion unit is configured to be inserted into the ground while passing through the through hole from an upper side to a lower side.   
     
     
         2 . The golf tee of  claim 1 , wherein the ball placement unit is formed of a flexible material such as silicone or rubber or any other similar materials so as to be bendable by an external force, and to maintain an initial shape thereof when the external force is not applied thereto. 
     
     
         3 . The golf tee of  claim 2 , wherein the ball placement unit is formed to have a predetermined height, and includes a contact surface on an upper portion thereof so as to place the ball thereon. 
     
     
         4 . The golf tee of  claim 3 , wherein the contact surface is formed to have an opening, and the insertion unit is capable of being accommodated through the opening. 
     
     
         5 . The golf tee of  claim 4 , wherein the ball placement unit includes a lower surface provided to come into contact with the ground. 
     
     
         6 . The golf tee of  claim 5 , wherein a plurality of ball placement units having different heights are provided, and the insertion unit is capable of being selectively accommodated in any of the ball placement units having different heights. 
     
     
         7 . The golf tee of  claim 5 , wherein the contact surface is formed to be inclined inwards and downwards. 
     
     
         8 . The golf tee of any one of  claims 2  to  7 , wherein the insertion unit made of an inflexible material such as metal or plastic or any other similar materials is provided so as not to be bent by an external force, and
 includes a pin inserted into the ground and a head provided on an upper portion of the pin, and 
 the head has a flat surface having an area that is comparable to that of the base of the interior of the ball placement unit. 
 
     
     
         9 . The golf tee of  claim 8 , wherein the pin has a diameter that is generally increased from a lower portion to an upper portion thereof. 
     
     
         10 . The golf tee of  claim 4 , wherein the ball placement unit has a diameter that is increased from a lower portion to an upper portion thereof. 
     
     
         11 . The golf tee of  claim 4 , wherein the ball placement unit is formed to have a constant diameter from a lower portion to an upper portion. 
     
     
         12 . The golf tee of  claim 4 , wherein the ball placement unit further includes a protrusion on an outer peripheral surface or an inner peripheral surface, and
 the protrusion is formed to protrude in a predetermined shape from a surface of the ball placement unit such that the ball placement unit and the insertion unit can be easily pulled out from the ground.
