  • Patent number: 6287213
    Abstract: A putting surface having a ball receptacle with a cup wall of a predetermined height is defined within the putting surface for receiving a moving ball. A force absorbing member extends vertically within the ball receptacle for absorbing the force of a moving ball. The force absorbing member has a first undeformed position prior to engaging the moving ball and a second deformed position when engaging the moving ball within a force absorbing zone for absorbing the force of a moving ball. Additionally, the force absorbing member is offset from the cup wall enabling a golf ball to enter the ball receptacle prior to engaging the force absorbing member.

  • Patent number: 5941527
    Abstract: A three dimensional strategy game and method for its play are provided, wherein multiple game pieces are assembled into geometrical configurations without the limitations imposed by a pre-existing support structure and wherein the interior of the three dimensional geometrical configuration is easily viewable. The three dimensional strategy game includes an orientation game piece and two or more sets of game pieces which may be matingly interconnected to construct geometric configurations. In addition to the game pieces, a directional indicator may also provided for indicating the direction from which each game piece must also be added to the growing geometric configuration. Each game piece has a plurality of sides extending outward from a central area with each side carrying an interconnecting member for matingly receiving a portion of an interconnecting member for connection to other game pieces.
