ABSTRACT:
A centrally-bored, elongate body slidably receives rope therethrough, and a rope end tethers a ball thereat. At a handle end of the body, a clothesline tightener or foreshortener is used to clasp the handle-confined portion of the rope to prevent its movement through the body, however by withdrawal of the hollow shaft of the clothesline tightener, the rope is unclasped and can freely be drawn out of a pay out end of the handle, to lengthen the ball-tethered portion thereof, or drawn out of the handle end to foreshorten the ball-tethered portion thereof. The clothesline tightener is slidably and snugly held in the central bore of the body at the handle end thereof.
