A golf ball retrieval device securable to a flag pole shaft used to mark a golf cup hole. The retrieval device is a conical shaped disc having an inner edge securable to the shaft of the flag pole and an outer edge having a diameter less than an inner diameter of the golf cup. The disc includes a mounting slip extending between the inner edge and the outer edge to allow the disc to be placed along a base of the flag pole shaft. The disc is constructed and arranged to hold a golf ball, allowing ease of golf ball retrieval when the flag pole is removed from the golf cup. Advertising may be placed on an upper surface of the disc.

In some embodiments, the present invention is directed to a golf green camera system comprising a pole having a first end and an opposite second end, a ferrule on the first end of the pole and configured to be inserted into a golf cup and a camera attached to the opposite second end of the pole. The golf cup is configured to be positioned within a corresponding opening in the golf green. The camera records play at the golf green. In some embodiments, the camera comprises a 360-degree camera.

Disclosed is a golf ball marker having a clip part. The golf ball marker includes: a clip part including a curved elastic body elastically deformed while a curved shape thereof is reversed in response to an external force applied thereto, and a pressing piece connected to an end of the curved elastic body to be spaced apart from the curved elastic body or to come into compressive contact with the curved elastic body, the clip part being selectively attached to/detached from a pocket, a belt, a visor or head and used as a marker; and a fixing portion protruding from one side of the clip part to fix the clip part to a ground of a golf course.

According to the various features, characteristics and embodiments of the present invention which will become apparent as the description thereof proceeds, the present invention provides partially fingered gloves intended to increase the overall performance in sports activities including but not limited to football and golf. Primarily because of its unique finger configurations, and/or grip enhancers, and/or hand protective properties, the present invention makes a glove operable in various sports activities.

A precision real-time laser measurement and marking apparatus is provided. The disclosure also relates to the multiple components of the precision real-time laser measurement and marking apparatus in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The multiple components of precision real-time laser measurement and marking apparatus are as follows: the main housing; the foam spray can; the universal clip; and the fully assembled precision real-time laser measurement and marking apparatus. A method of using a precision real-time laser measurement and marking apparatus is provided. The method comprising pressing a distance measurement button while aiming an apparatus at a target; displaying an exact distance measurement on a LED screen wherein the exact distance measurement is the distance between the target and the apparatus; determining the exact distance measurement matches a desired distance; and marking a distance boundary using a spray nozzle of the apparatus.

A golf flagstick assembly includes a ferrule, a first flagstick portion, a second flagstick portion and a connector fitting. The first flagstick portion has a first cross-sectional dimension. The second flagstick portion is separate from the first flagstick portion and has a second cross-sectional dimension. The second flagstick portion is oriented such that an end of the second flagstick portion is disposed toward an end of the first flagstick portion. The connector fitting extends between and operatively connect the first and second flagstick portions. The connector fitting has a fitting cross-sectional dimension that is less than the first cross-sectional dimension of the first flagstick portion and less than the second cross-sectional dimension of the second flagstick portion. Connector fittings and methods of assembly are also included.

A golf flagstick device comprising a rigid support member combined with a plurality of jacks. The components are encapsulated by a material, such as a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer, using an injection molding process. The jacks have one or more arms extending outward from a center portion. The arms are adapted to contact the inner wall of the mold's cavity to help hold the rigid support member in one place and away from the inner wall during the molding process. The flagstick includes a ferrule attached to a lower end which is adapted for placement into a putting cup and a tip fitting attached to an upper end which is adapted to be combined with a flag. The ferrule and/or tip fitting may be combined with the rigid support member before the injection molding process resulting in the ferrule and/or tip fitting being at least partially filled with and/or encapsulated by the material to help hold the components together without requiring a secondary attachment operation.
