Abstract

A golf ball tee device includes a base unit, an inverted L-shaped support rod having a vertical lower end portion fixed on the base unit and a horizontal upper end portion, and a rotatable device mounted on the upper end portion of the support rod. The rotatable device includes a ball body secured on the upper end portion of the support rod, a casing which encloses rotatably the ball body, and a ball unit which includes a golf ball and a connecting rod that interconnects securely the ball body and the golf ball in such a manner that the golf ball is located at a level above the base unit in a spaced-apart relationship. When the golf ball is struck, the casing and the ball unit rotate about the ball body.
