FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH [0001] Not Applicable SEQUENCE LISTING OR PROGRAM [0002] Not Applicable BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION--FIELD OF INVENTION [0003] This invention relates to golf tees and more particularly to a high endurance flexible golf ball tee apparatus that is used mainly for golf practice. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION--PRIOR ART [0004] Golf is a timeless sport that is enjoyed by many and has been played over the years with a conventional wooden tee that has changed very little, if any. Although the conventional tees are great products, they still lack the endurance. Enabling them to stay in place after one hits a golf ball and comes in contact with the tee. You may get lucky to find your tee on the ground in front of you, perhaps intact. You will still need to pick it up, replace the tee and reset the height, once again. There have been many attempts to better the conventional golf tee, which shows the obvious desire for something durable and practical, such as U.S. Pat. No. 2,146,736 to Hammond (1936) and U.S. Pat. No. 3,966,214 to Collins (1976). Both these inventions try to solve the problem pertaining to the tee breaking and/or flying away from the player. [0005] These patents are unique and serve certain functions. On impact they are to tilt or pivot from their head portion to take the impact and not fly away or break in theory. That is a fine concept, but they will break or fly out of the ground in whole, then we are back to retrieving the tee. These newer tees are more complex and more expensive to make in comparison to the conventional wooden tee. Most of these recent inventions fell short of their expectations, never becoming popularized. That is why I created my flexible golf tee. I can not compare my tee to a conventional wooden tee, or the like. It is not a tee used on a golf course for teeing off. My tee is used to practice anywhere including on a driving range. Therefore, there is a real need to have a golf tee to use repeatedly without breakage and loss of the tee overcoming the deficiencies of the conventional tees now in existence that are used on golf driving/practice ranges. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION--OBJECTS AND ADVANTAGES [0006] The present invention is to provide a flexible golf ball support that is designed for golf practice. It consists a vertical soft flexible cylinder that holds a golf ball up in such a manner so it can be struck repeatedly by a golf club. The cylinder's soft flexible material also allows it to flex in the direction of the golf club on impact without breaking or being removed from its stationary position and won't damage the face of a golf club and is made in various heights to adjust to any size golf club. [0007] A current object and advantage is my tee has a support disc that gives enhanced stability to the entire tee apparatus and acts as a buffer if the club misses the tee. [0008] Another object and advantage is a tube that allows this tee apparatus to connect to a stake. [0009] A further object and advantage is a stake that holds its position in the ground and makes my flexible tee apparatus stable. [0010] A still further object and advantage is the entire tee apparatus working together with each functioning component, makes this tee very sturdy and practical. SUMMARY [0011] In accordance with the present invention a flexible golf ball support tee apparatus comprises a cylinder that holds a golf ball upright that is attached to a support disc that has a tube mounted there under to connect it to a stake.
