ABSTRACT:
Athletic discus retriever for lifting a discus from the ground surface and projecting it toward a retrieval area including a vehicle or cart having a set of inclined support members extending between a novel work surface and handles. The work surface includes discus erecting members or guide surfaces so that after the discus is scooped up when moving the cart forward and retrieving the discus in a flat position on the work surface, by then tilting the cart handles down and rearwardly the discus will fall along the guide surfaces so that when the discus responds to the force of gravity, the discus is guided to a vertical position resting upon its edge. The cart is provided with a spring and release mechanism which upon proper operation projects the discus toward a retrieval area adjacent a discus court by rolling it along the ground surface.
