  • Patent number: 10881930
    Abstract: The golfer sometimes wants or needs to have a golf ball ready for immediate play when the golfer's golf ball is lost. This device will allow the golfer to place a golf ball into a cavity of the device that is provided between an upper and low jaw. A pair of jaws that are connected by a spring will allow the golf ball to remain in position during normal play but at the same time allow the golfer to easily retrieve the golf ball within the cavity. When the golfer needs to use another ball, the golfer simply grabs the golf ball on its side and separates the jaws to retrieve the golf ball. The golfer can place the device on his or her pants or golf bag so that the golf ball is readily available.
