Golf ball holder
A golf ball-clipping device is provided for clipping golf balls. The golf ball-clipping device includes two rear vertical sections, a first upper connective section extending to a rear vertical section from the other rear vertical section, two front vertical sections shorter than the rear vertical sections, two lower connective sections each extending to a rear vertical section from a related front vertical section and a second upper connective section extending to a front vertical section from the other front vertical section. The vertical sections restrain the golf balls. The lower connective sections support the golf balls.

1. Field of Invention
The present invention relates to golf and, more particularly, to a golf ball holder.
2. Background of Invention
In Taiwanese Publication No. 281029, a conventional golf ball holder includes a sleeve 112 and a hook 121. The sleeve 112 includes an upper open end 115 for receiving golf balls 111 and a lower open end 116 for releasing the golf balls 111. The sleeve 112 is elastic and includes a diameter smaller than that of a golf ball 111. Thus, the sleeve 112 automatically holds the golf balls 111. A loop 130 is sewed to the sleeve 112. A cross bar 126 is inserted through the loop 130. Two ears 125 are connected with the cross bar 126. A shaft 124 is inserted in each ear 125. A collar 122 is connected with the shafts 124. A shaft (not shown) is extended from the hook 121 and inserted in the collar 122. To take a golf ball 111 from the sleeve 112, a golfer squeezes the sleeve 112 in order to drive a golf ball 111 from the lower open end 116. However, it is not easy for the golfer to catch the golf ball 111 since it comes in all directions. Moreover, a golf ball 111 might fall from the sleeve 112 if the sleeve 112 is squeezed accidentally. To connect the sleeve 112 with the hook 121, the loop 130, the cross bar 126, the ears 125, the shafts 124, the collar 122 and the shaft extended from the hook 121 are used. These elements form a complicated structure.
The present invention is therefore intended to obviate or at least alleviate the problems encountered in prior art.
SUMMARY OF INVENTIONAccording to the present invention, a golf ball-clipping device is provided for clipping golf balls. The golf ball-clipping device includes two rear vertical sections, a first upper connective section extending to a rear vertical section from the other rear vertical section, two front vertical sections shorter than the rear vertical sections, two lower connective sections each extending to a rear vertical section from a related front vertical section and a second upper connective section extending to a front vertical section from the other front vertical section. The vertical sections restrain the golf balls. The lower connective sections support the golf balls.
