A golf teeing device (10) includes a one-piece singulation arm (12) having a ball-receiving region (20) that is connected to a ball-seating region (24) by a ramp region (22). The unitary singulation arm (12) has a raised rest position and a lowered delivery position. The configuration of the ramp region (22) channels a golf ball (14) to the ball-seating region (24) when the singulation arm (12) is in its delivery position. The configuration of the ball-seating region (24) inhibits horizontal movement of the ball (14) in any direction when the ball reaches this region. In one embodiment, all three regions (20, 22 and 24) of the singulation arm (12) have dimensions that are consistent with the channel of the ramp region (22). A ball-striking mechanism (38) within a supply path (42) to the singulation arm (12) is activated to provide dislodging forces to at least two balls, thereby ensuring a consistent flow of balls to the singulation arm (12).
