ABSTRACT:
A golf ball retriever is provided for retrieving balls by providing at least two discs mounted on a rotatable shaft. The discs have a distance therebetween slightly greater than the diameter of the ball. A foam-rubber ring is concentrically attached to an inside surface of each disc to provide for an easy pick-up of the ball. Each of the discs are scallop-shaped to provide a greater vertical downward force on the ball than a horizontal force when pivoting on a scallop point. Radial slits are formed in each disc extending from a low point of each scallop. Counter sunk holes are formed on the inside surface of each disc at the ends of the radial slits.
