Abstract: A rugged self-contained tool for performing golf ball retrieval from remote and otherwise inaccessible areas of a water hazard comprising a plurality of rigidly mounted, ball-pinching, spaced, resilient discs upon an axle supported rotatably by and between the ends of a one-half rectangular cooperating ball-confining frame. The tool can be deployed by casting same into remote or otherwise inaccessible areas retaining control thereof by means of a cord attached to an eyelet centrally located on the frame, which cord, when pulled steadily, rolls the tool upon the bottom of the water hazard returning the tool and its retained contents to the user. The frame of the tool provides hydroplaning downward pressure on the tool and the discs have multiple straight sides at their outer peripheries to provide traction with the bottom.
