Improvements in Moulds for Shaping Sand "Tees" used in the Game
of Golf.
FREDERICK WILLIAM WAREING, 5, Windsor Place, Fleetwood, Lancashire, Civil
and Mechanical Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:
66
My present invention relates to a
means of providing golf players with an
apparatus whereby a sand tee" can be easily & expeditiously formed without
handling the damp sand, or soiling the fingers & thereby ensuring regularity of
height of the "tee." I am aware that there is a < tee mould in existence for
this purpose, but my invention differs from this by the use of a spring side in
order to obviate the tendency of the sand to adhere to the sides of the mould.
In order to further facilitate the sand leaving the mould, I have a small opening
in or near the top of the mould so as to allow the air to escape when filling the
mould with sand &, also ensure the ready escape of the moulded sand when the
is being formed, I do not claim a specific size of mould.

I claim is:
A mould for making sand "tees" as used in the game of golf substantially as
