ABSTRACT:
A ball dispensing apparatus comprises a container capable of housing a plurality of golf balls and a ball dispenser having a gate member to allow a golfer to selectively control the dispensation of a single golf ball at a time, without requiring the golfer to alter his or her stance prior to each swing or putt. The gate member has first and second gate portions attached by a connecting member, so as to allow the first and second gate portions to reciprocate in unison with each other across an inclined passageway within the ball dispenser. The ball dispenser has a hold position and a dispensing position. In the hold position the first gate portion is retracted from the passageway and the second gate portion extends into the passageway, while in the dispensing position the first gate portion extends into the passageway and the second gate portion is retracted from the passageway. The reciprocation of the gate member between the hold and dispensing positions is controlled by a solenoid plunger and a return spring connected to the gate member.
