ABSTRACT:
A game device whereby one may improve his golf ball putting skill. Fundamentally, the invention comprises an arcuate shaped bottom surface having a vertical wall partially encompassing the same. The wall is discontinuous at a point and thus defines a receptacle for receiving balls putted toward the device. A front edge portion of the arcuate surface is characterized by the presence of a pivotal tongue which is actuated by a golf ball passing thereover. Connected to the tongue is a spring-loaded mechanical counter actuated by mechanical linkage to record the number of times a ball passes over the tongue. Interconnected within the receptacle is a second spring-biased mechanical counter which is actuated each time a ball is received within the receptacle and is functional to record the number of balls putted towards the device and passing up onto the arcuate surface.
