To enable smooth movement of balls in a discharge chute without accumulation of rainwater, dirt and the like in the discharge chute by forming holes in the bottom surface of the discharge chute to let the rainwater, dirt and the like drop.
Golf balls 2 are stored into a hopper 1. The rear end of a discharge chute 3 is inserted into a discharge port 4 in the front of the hopper 1 and an intermediate part thereof is supported free to oscillate by a strut 5. Holes 6 and 6 are formed in the bottom surface of the discharge chute 3 to let rainwater, dirt and like drop. With such an arrangement, golf balls 2 in the hopper 1 are moved in one row on the discharge chute 3 to be supplied to a tee arranged at the front end of the chute 3. In this process, even when the rainwater or the dirt enters the discharge chute 3, it drops down from the holes 6 in the bottom surface thereby enabling smooth movement of the balls 2 in the discharge chute 3. The holes 6 and 6 in the bottom surface may be arranged successively.
