ABSTRACT:
An improved ball return mechanism for a game like golf which includes a pressurizable ball receiving chamber for receiving a ball once played through a hole in a target area, a conduit extending between the hole and the chamber, a door separating the conduit and the ball receiving chamber, a source of fluid under pressure, an electrical device for admitting upon receipt of a signal the fluid under pressure into the chamber in an amount sufficient to drive the ball from the chamber to a return area, and an electrical switch for sensing the presence of a ball in the chamber and thereafter generating a signal to said fluid admitting means to admit fluid under pressure into the chamber. Upon entrance of a ball into the chamber, the chamber is closed off and pressurized, the ball is then ejected from the chamber by the pressure with enough force to send it to the return area.
