Abstract: An extendible golf tool includes a handle portion with front and rear portions, an extendible portion with a rear portion operably connected to the front portion of the handle portion, and a generally pointed tool operably connected to the front portion of the extendible portion. A ball retriever attachment may optionally be provided at the rear portion of the handle portion.

Abstract: A golf ball retriever, for use with a golf club, includes a generally spherical catcher member including a plurality of claws extending integrally from a base member and defining therebetween a first internal recess configured to hold a golf ball, wherein each of the claws include a tip portion curved inwardly toward the first internal recess. The tip portions define an opening for receiving a golf ball therethrough. A fastener extends from the internal recess and through the base member into the shaft of a golf club for attaching the base member directly to the golf club.

Abstract: A golf tee includes a shaft portion with upper and lower end portions. A generally hollow funnel-shaped first end portion is provided for supporting a golf ball thereon and extends from the upper end of the shaft portion. One or more prongs extend upwardly from the first end portion to elevate the golf ball a predetermined distance off the top of the tee. A generally tapered second end portion is provided for anchoring the tee into the ground and extends from the lower end of the shaft portion. An optional height adjustment member is slidably positioned on the shaft portion for setting a height of the tee relative to the ground. The shaft portion includes a plurality of vertically spaced slots separated by at least one ring for selectively holding the height adjustment member in one of the slots.

The height adjustment member includes first and second directional arrows that preferably extend in generally opposite directions.

Abstract: A golf ball marker includes a marker portion and a shank portion extending from the marker portion for anchoring the golf ball marker into the ground. The marker portion includes first and second directional arrows. The directional arrows preferably extend in generally opposite directions.

Abstract: A system for positioning correction ribbons having a layer of opaque dry correction material over a letter or image on a surface such as paper for subsequent covering of the image. The system includes a supply spool rotatably mounted in a supply spool holder and a take-up spool rotatably mounted in a take-up spool holder. A hold-down member is adapted to pass the ribbon between the spool holders under the hold-down member in contact with the image. A window is formed by the hold-down member to allow placement of the ribbon and access to the ribbon by a stylus which is rubbed against the ribbon by the user in order to adhere the opaque material to the image.

Abstract: A system for mounting a gear member having gear teeth tilted in one direction onto a core pin of a mold. The gear member is a part of a drive gear member that rotates a pick-up spindle of a used ribbon in a cassette. The gear forms a center hole having a rim that has at least three keys that are adapted to slide upon at least three keyways formed by the core pin. The keys are positioned at such angular distance that a mirror image of the metal key member and the keys would not be adapted to be received by the keyways of the core pin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ink formulation which may be coated on a flexible substratum to produce a typewriter ribbon or the like, wherein impressions made from such a ribbon are capable of adhesive removal shortly after being created on all conventional typing bonds and papers, but which impressions exhibit delayed alteration resistance whereby any attempt at correcting or removing the indicia by pressure sensitive adhesive means or altering the indicia by erasing will leave an obvious and permanent indication that a removal was attempted.

Abstract: A composition for a correctable typewriter ribbon adapted to be adhesively lifted off from the typing bond to which it is transferred for a short period of time, after which the alteration resistance of a typed indicia changes so that an adhesive lift off operation fails to remove the visible image from the typing bond.

Abstract: Typewriter correction materials employing adhesives including a base strip of light-transmitting material. A transfer strip having a coating of ink thereon is bonded to the base strip and a character-removing strip having a coating of an adhesive thereon is also bonded to the base strip in spaced parallel relation to the transfer strip. Another embodiment of the invention conceives of utlizing an adhesive on a tab while including in the concept the use of separate transfer ribbons arranged in a typewriter. Yet another embodiment conceives of employing an adhesive on the end of an applicator which is pressed against the typed error for removing the typed error from the material and being then pressed against an adhesive material having greater adhesive attraction than the used adhesive on the applicator.

Abstract: A typewriter correction tape adapted to lift off an erroneous typewritten character from the paper on which it was typed including an impact compressible material coated on a substrate film, and method of manufacture thereof.
