The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 1 wherein the sloped edge has an angle of 85 degrees for guiding an insertion of the golf tee into the ground at a predetermined angle of 5 degrees with respect to an axis perpendicular to the ground plane. 3. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 2 wherein the golf tee angle adjuster is adapted to guide the insertion of the golf tee into the ground at the predetermined angle of 5 degrees toward a left side of a golfer thereby providing a hook correcting golf tool. 4. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 2 wherein the golf tee angle adjuster is adapted to guide the insertion of the golf tee into the ground at the predetermined angle of 5 degrees toward a right side of a golfer thereby providing a slice correcting golf tool. 5. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 2 wherein the golf tee angle adjuster is adapted to guide the insertion of the golf tee into the ground at the predetermined angle of 5 degrees toward a front side of a golfer thereby providing a backspin enhancing golf tool. 6. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 2 wherein the golf tee angle adjuster is adapted to guide the insertion of the golf tee into the ground at the predetermined angle of 5 degrees toward a golfer thereby providing a drive distance enhancing golf tool such that a golf ball travels a greater distance when hit by the golfer. 7. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 1 further comprising at least one component selected from the group consisting of a golf tee leveler, a divot repairer, a club face cleaner, a ball marker, and an object rest. 8. A pocket multipurpose golf tool having a body with a front face, a rear face, a distal end and a proximal end thereof, and having a golf tee height adjuster comprising a series of recesses on the rear face for positioning a head of a golf tee at one of a plurality of predetermined heights of from 0.5 inch to 2.25 inches from the ground, wherein each recess comprises a tee head channel having a profile that accommodates and generally conforms to the head of the golf tee, wherein the proximal end has a peripheral edge, comprising a planar first side and a planar second side thereof, and is asymmetric along the peripheral edge of the proximal end such that the first side and second side intersect pivotably to form an intersection line, wherein the planar first side is disposed at an angle to the planar second side and the central axis of the golf tee height adjuster penetrates the intersection line and is disposed perpendicularly thereof, thereby forming a golf tee leveler disposed on the first side of the proximal end and having an angle of from 89 to 91 degrees between a central axis of the golf tee height adjuster and the peripheral edge of the proximal end for guiding an insertion of the golf tee into the ground at an angle substantially perpendicular to the ground plane. 9. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 8 wherein the distal end of the body forms a divot repairer and the opposing proximal end forms the golf tee leveler, wherein the divot repairer comprises a plurality of tapered prongs such that a sharper point is formed at a distal end of the plurality of tapered prongs to facilitate digging, and the golf tool is adapted to be anchored in the ground with the plurality of tapered prongs and disposed in an upright position with the proximal side of the body upward such that a depression on the rear face functions as an object rest whereby an end of an object rests within the depression such that the object is propped off the ground and a tendency to roll away is inhibited. 10. A pocket multipurpose golf tool comprising a golf tee height adjuster, a divot repairer, a club face cleaner, a ball marker, an object rest, a golf tee leveler, and a golf tee angle adjuster wherein the golf tee height adjuster comprises a series of recesses on the rear face for positioning a head of a golf tee at one of a plurality of predetermined heights of from 0.5 inch to 2.25 inches from the ground, wherein each recess comprises a tee head channel having a profile that accommodates and generally conforms to the head of the golf tee, the proximal end has a peripheral edge, a first side and a second side thereof, and is asymmetric along the peripheral edge of the proximal side such that the first side and second side form different angles between a central axis of the golf tee height adjuster and an axis perpendicular to the ground plane, the golf tee angle adjuster is disposed on the proximal end formed by a sloped edge having an angle of from 83 to 89 degrees between a central axis of the golf tee height adjuster and a surface of the proximal end for guiding an insertion of the golf tee into the ground at a predetermined angle of from 4 to 7 degrees with respect to an axis perpendicular to the ground plane, the golf tee leveler is disposed on the first side of the proximal end and has an angle of from 89 to 91 degrees between a central axis of the golf tee height adjuster and the peripheral edge of the proximal end for guiding an insertion of the golf tee into the ground at a substantially perpendicular angle with respect to an axis perpendicular to the ground plane, a distal end of the body forms the divot repairer, wherein the divot repairer comprises a plurality of tapered prongs such that a sharper point is formed at a distal end of the plurality of tapered prongs to facilitate digging, a depression on a central portion of the back face forms a storage recess for storage of a ball marker, and wherein the storage recess holds a magnetic disk and a metallic ball marker and is configured to receive the ball marker such that the ball marker is flush with a peripheral surface of the body when the ball marker is disposed in the storage recess, and wherein the magnetic disk comprises a rare earth magnet, and a plurality of outwardly extending angular protrusions from a first side of a central portion of the body form the club face cleaner. 11. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 10 wherein the storage recess has a diameter substantially the same as a coin diameter of a United States quarter or dime. 12. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 10 wherein a floor of the storage recess has a central axis and a second recess disposed therein that receives the magnetic disk such that a top surface of the magnetic disk is substantially flush with the floor of the storage recess and wherein the second recess has a second central axis positioned such that the second central axis is offset from the central axis of the storage recess thereby facilitating easier removal of the ball marker from the storage recess during use. 13. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 10 wherein a depth of a floor of the storage recess is not uniform such that the depth of the floor at the proximal end is deeper than the depth of the floor at the distal end thereby allowing a finger to easily dislodge the ball marker from the storage recess and the magnetic disk. 14. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 10 further comprising markings for golf tee height measurement markings and angle markings labeling the angles of the golf tee leveler and the golf tee angle adjuster wherein the angle markings and golf tee height measurement markings are disposed on a peripheral surface of the body. 15. The pocket multipurpose golf tool of claim 10 further comprising a first depression along the proximal end on the front face and a second depression along the proximal end on the back face such that the first and the second depressions facilitate a finger of a golfer easily gripping the golf tee for insertion and removal from the golf tee height adjuster. 16. A portable multipurpose golf tool comprising a body having a front face, a rear face, a distal end and a proximal end thereof, and a plurality of recesses on the rear face, adapted to receive a portion of a golf tee having a circular top end and a spiked bottom end, wherein when the golf tee is received in one of the plurality of recesses, the spiked bottom end extends from the proximal end thereby providing a means for setting the spiked bottom portion of the golf tee while the circular top end of the golf tee is concurrently mounted in one of the plurality of recesses, and a golf tee angle adjuster disposed on the proximal end, having at least one planar surface having an offset angle possessing a range from 4 to 6 degrees with respect to a planar surface containing circular top edge of golf tee, thereby providing the golf tee with a predetermined angle with respect to a playing green substantially equal to the offset angle. 17. The portable multipurpose golf tool of claim 16, wherein the offset angle is 5 degrees, thereby providing a slice correcting means by enabling a user to easily set the golf tee having a 5 degree bias toward a right side of the user.
