Abstract:
A performance golf tee is a support for a golf ball to offset the golf ball from a ground surface. The performance golf tee includes a tee shaft, a ball mounting support, a ground insertion spike and a directional indicator. The ball mounting support is connected to the tee shaft to support a golf ball on a front support extrusion and a pair of rear support extrusions. The front support extrusion and the pair of rear support extrusions reduce friction by offsetting the golf ball from the remainder of the ball mounting support. The ground insertion spike is connected to the tee shaft, opposite to the ball mounting support, to allow the present invention to more efficiently penetrate the ground surface. The directional indicator indicates the orientation of the performance golf tee to optimally reduce friction when the golf ball is struck.

Claim (Index 1):
A performance golf tee comprises:\n a tee shaft; a ground insertion spike; a ball mounting support; a directional indicator; the ball mounting support comprises a front support extrusion, a pair of rear support extrusions, a mounting support base, and a concave recess; the mounting support base being terminally connected to the tee shaft; the ground insertion spike being terminally connected to the tee shaft, opposite the mounting support base; the directional indicator being laterally connected to the mounting support base adjacent to the tee shaft; the concave recess traversing into the mounting support base; the concave recess being oppositely positioned to the ground insertion spike about the mounting support base; the front support extrusion and the pair of rear support extrusions being connected to the mounting support base; the front support extrusion and the pair of rear support extrusions being perimetrically connected around the concave recess; the front support extrusion being positioned along a sagittal plane of the tee shaft; the pair of rear support extrusions being offset from the sagittal plane; the pair of rear support extrusions being oppositely positioned to each other about the sagittal plane; the front support extrusion being positioned closer to an axial plane of the tee shaft than the pair of rear support extrusions; and the front support extrusion being positioned closer to a coronal plane of the tee shaft than the pair of rear support extrusions.
