ABSTRACT:
A golf putting practice device includes a support body and a rod. The support body includes a housing, a pair of front leg members and a rear leg member. Each front and rear leg member is pivotally mounted to the housing. Each front and rear leg member is movable between lower extended and upper stored positions. The rod in the form of a series of rod segments telescopingly extendable and retractable with respect to one another. The rod also has a series of markings thereon indicating different distances from the golf ball. The rod is at the first end mounted to the housing of the support body such that the rod is disposed partially within a central interior passageway of the housing and elevated a predetermined height above a surface. The device further includes a surface contour indicating arrangement which includes a base provided on the housing and a ball rollably on the base and a cover rotatably mounted to the base. The cover defines a first plurality of markings which together with the ball indicate the number of degrees the device is away from level and a second plurality of markings which indicate the degrees between the centerline of the rod and a line pointing at a target on the surface upon which the device is placed such that an angle between the rod and the target can be measured.
