  • Patent number: 4655460
    Abstract: A golf kit for practicing golf driving, pitching and chipping, employs a portable driving mat having two or more simulated turf portions having different heights, a tee, a lightweight plastic practice golf ball tethered by a string to the driving mat or to the ground by means of a pin and may additionally include a basket with an open top. The device further employs a fence hurdle formed by a plurality of spaced apart stakes with a strip of material interconnecting the top ends of the stakes which form a central fence portion and two or more fence end portions. The stakes may be supported in pedestals for use on hard surfaces or may be staked in the ground. The stakes extend a predetermined height above the floor or ground to provide an artificial fence hurdle which forms markers determining the game points. The open top basket is placed in back of the fence hurdle to provide a target. In practicing and in playing the game, the user drives the ball in an attempt to hit it over the fence.
