ABSTRACT:
An elongate ball-retrieving device adapted for being connected in an end-to-end relationship with the handle end of a golf club, such that the golf club, when moved into a substantially aligned relationship with the elongate device, can advantageously serve to increase the effective length of the ball-retrieving device. One end of the elongate device is equipped with a cup usable for retrieving a golf ball lodged in a relatively inaccessible location, with the end of the elongate device opposite the cup having an upwardly-opening handle-receiving chamber bounded by a closely spaced pair of inwardly biased, handle-contacting fingers. These fingers are of resilient construction, with the spacing between the pair of fingers being less than the width of the handle to be received therebetween. Therefore, upon the end of the club handle being inserted into the upwardly-opening chamber and between the fingers, the fingers are forced apart, with the fingers thereafter reclosing around the handle and serving to tightly hold the club handle in aligned relationship with the elongate device.
