DIVOT REPAIR TOOL
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012055696
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a divot repair tool for quickly and effectively repairing irregularities or traces of golf balls, which are caused by impact of the balls, on a putting green in a golf course.
A first portion has a pair of prongs 20, 22 for being inserted into the turf and an extension 18. A second portion is disposed on the base member 12 oppositely from the extension 18. A spinning wheel 40 supported by ball bearings is integrated into the tool to provide rotational movement of the first and second portions. Additionally, an angle is disposed between the first and second portions, such that the two portions are not co-planar and therefore leverage is increased during the turf repair process.
