ABSTRACT:
A golf ball pick-up device includes an upright pick-up tube having an upper end portion formed with a ball-exiting opening. A strip unit includes plurality of resilient strips extending radially and inwardly from an open lower end of the pick-up tube so as to define a ball inlet thereamong. The strips deform so as to allow golf balls to move into the pick-up tube via the ball inlet when the strip unit is pressed against the golf balls one at a time, and is sized so as to prevent downward removal of the golf balls from the pick-up tube via the ball inlet. A ball-guiding unit is disposed within the upper end portion of the pick-up tube, and is formed with a ball-guiding surface shaped so as to guide the golf balls into the ball-exiting opening when the golf balls move upwardly within the pick-up tube.
