ABSTRACT:
A golf ball retriever which is attachable to the grip end of a standard golf club and which retrieves a lost ball in a partial loop at the retriever's end. The partial loop is formed to define approximately 66% of a full circle. For optimum retrieving effectiveness, the partial loop is oriented relative to the supporting shaft where it may be brought closely parallel with the resting surface of the golf ball. The retriever is formed into a spiral configuration at its club attachment end. To attach the retriever to a golf club, the club grip is guided into the center of the spiral configuration to coincide with its axis and then drawn telescopically as far out as permitted by the spiral until the retriever is firmly seated on the grip.
