ABSTRACT:
A chip shot practice ring utilized as a target and receptacle for receiving chipped or pitched golf balls is disclosed. The apparatus utilizes a substantially circular base member constructed of a rectangular strip of material joined at its opposite abutting ends by a closure member. A vertically oriented flag pole is attached at its lower end to a vertically extending pole in the closure member, and a flag is attached to the flag pole at its upper end. The components of the apparatus are fabricated from brightly colored polymeric and metallic materials which enhance their visibility, portability, and resistance to material degradation. A lighting assembly, including a bulb on the flag pole and a fiber optic cable extending to and around the upper surface of the base member, is further provided to illuminate the base member, the flag pole, and the flag to render the apparatus highly visible to the practicing golfer under minimal lighting conditions.
