ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a plastic, scoop-like device which easily, and without the use of tools, attaches to a golfclub iron, for the purpose of retrieving golf balls, or the like, from water hazards or other relatively inaccessible locations, or to pick up golf balls after a practice session. This device has two sides, bottom, and open ends, which is formed by bending a flat sheet of relatively thin plastic, permanently secured at its center top edge, which will cause it to resemble a "tear-drop" shape in its cross-section from that point of securement to one end of the device. From that same point of securement to the other end of the device, the cross-sectional shape fairs from the "tear-drop" shape to a form resembling a "U" in cross-section. The latter end of the device receives the "scooped" ball and the former end receives and attaches to the club head. The "scoop" end has two holes, each being of a smaller diameter than that of a golf ball, and are so designed as to engage the golf ball on both sides and to hold the ball during, and after the scooping action, to retrieve the ball from its unwanted location. The other end of the device envelops the golf club head, and when secured with the fastener to the club head, it forms an integral unit with the club shaft, and as such, forms the complete retriever.
