  • Patent number: 6029599
    Abstract: A golf pin stand device comprising a connector and a pair of leg members which, when attached to a golf pin, supports a golf pin above ground in a tripod configuration. The connector is adapted to connect to the shaft of a golf pin. The leg members are pivotally attached to the connector and freely move relative to the connector between a retracted position when the pin is in a vertical position and an extended position when the pin is in a horizontal position. The device allows the pin to be removed from a hole and set aside in a supported position such that, when resetting the pin, a golfer need not bend down to the green to retrieve the pin. The pin, while supported above the surface of the green by the pair of leg members, can be used to support at least one golf club thereby keeping the golf club handle high enough above the ground to keep the grip clean and dry.
