ABSTRACT:
A golf cup with a sound producing device therein mounted on a projection projecting upwardly from the bottom of the golf cup and with a hollow center forming a flagstick base receiving hole. The top of the circuit box for the device is a metal contact with an annular sponge thereon having a plurality of apertures therein extending through the thickness of the sponge. A metal contact plate is positioned on the top surface of the sponge and has a plurality of projections on the under side of the contact plate projecting into the apertures in the sponge and having the free ends spaced from the top when the sponge is in the uncompressed condition and contacting the top when said sponge is compressed when struck by a golf ball falling into the cup. A sound producing circuit within said circuit box has the top and the contact plate coupled therein as an actuating switch. A twittering or chirping sound is produced by the sound producing device to harmonize with the natural atmosphere of a golf course.
