Abstract
An encasement device for a golf tee is cylindrically adhered to a shaft of golf tee. The encasement device is a cover with graduated markings, which allows the golfer to consistently set the tee at the golfer's desired depth. Each graduated marking is numerically related to other graduated markings and the ground penetration depth. The resulting multi-layer structure of the golf tee and the encasement device deters breakage of the golf tee and reinforces the shaft structure of the golf tee.
