Abstract: A golf green repair tool having a plurality of spears centered around a plurality of tines. The tines and spears are biased by a spring inside a housing and sleeve. When the cap the housing is pressed by the foot of a greenskeeper or golfer the spring is compressed forcing the tines and spears into the turf. The tines are inserted around the periphery of the ball-mark to aerate and loosen the turf. The spears are inserted into the center of the ball-mark and aerate and pull the bottom of the ball-mark to the level of the surrounding turf. The bottom side of the ground-contacting sleeve pressed down the raised rim of the ball-mark correcting the entire ball-mark to the level of the surrounding turf.
Abstract: A pitch mark repair tool is provided. The repair tool includes a stationary tube having a top end and a bottom end. At least one spike extends from the bottom end. A handle portion is secured to the top end of the stationary tube. A slide tube is slidably engaged with the stationary tube. The slide tube includes a bottom end having an aperture sized to fit at least one spike therethrough. A spring is disposed about the stationary tube in between the slide tube and the handle portion. The spring biases the slide tube so that the at least one spike is at least substantially disposed within the slide tube. The spike protrudes through the aperture when a pressure is applied to the bottom end of the slide tube 16 against the bias of the spring.
