Abstract
A golf game and training device which involves pitching and chipping golf balls at a target that has a plurality of numbered scoring positions. The device includes a target base having target walls the define an upper target area mounted on top of three legs which also function as targets. The target legs are associated with a target skirt that defines a lower target area. A vertical beam target extends upward from a back target wall and an aperture in the target base allows a ball to pass from the upper target area into a ball receptacle. An indoor ball and pitching/chipping mat allow the device to be used indoors or out without damaging the playing surface.
Claims15
A golf game and training device for developing pitching and chipping skills comprising:
- a) a target base having a topside and underside, a forward edge, a rear edge, a left side edge, and right side edge, wherein the intersection of said rear edge and said left side edge define a left rear corner and the intersection of said rear edge and said right side edge define a right rear corner and from which extends upward a front target wall, a back target wall, and side target walls so as to form a recessed upper target area and thereby define an interior upper target area;
- b) a front target leg depending from the center of the forward edge of said target base;
- c) a left target leg depending from the left rear corner of said target base;
- d) a right target leg depending from the right rear corner of said target base;
- and
- e) a skirt target extending forward from the lower side of said left target leg and connecting to the lower side of said right target leg and thereby partially enclosing a lower target area therebetween.
A golf game and training device for developing pitching and chipping skills comprising:
- a) a target base having a topside and an underside, a forward edge, a rear edge, a left side edge, and right side edge, wherein the intersection of said rear edge and said left side edge define a left rear corner and the intersection of said rear edge and said right side edge define a right rear corner and from which extends upward a front target wall, a back target wall, and side target walls so as to form a recessed upper target area and thereby define an interior upper target area;
- wherein said target base is provided with a target base aperture sized so as to allow a ball to pass through said target base aperture;
- wherein said aperture has the same dimensions as the interior of said recessed upper target area;
- b) a front target leg depending from the center of the forward edge of said target base;
- c) a left target leg depending from the left rear corner of said target base;
- d) a right target leg depending from the right rear corner of said target base;
- and
- e) a ball receptacle suspended from the underside of the target base and positioned so as to receive a ball passing through said target base aperture.
A golf game and training device for developing pitching and chipping skills comprising:
- a) a target base having a topside and an underside, a forward edge, a rear edge, a left side edge, and right side edge, wherein the intersection of said rear edge and said left side edge define a left rear corner and the intersection of said rear edge and said right side edge define a right rear corner and from which extends upward a front target wall, a back target wall, and side target walls so as to form an recessed upper target area and thereby define an interior upper target area;
- said target base is provided with a target base aperture sized so as to allow a ball to pass through said target base aperture;
- b) a front target leg depending from the center of the forward edge of said target base;
- c) a left target leg depending from the left rear corner of said target base;
- and
- d) a right target leg depending from the right rear corner of said target base;
- e) a skirt target extending forward from the lower side of said left target leg and connecting to the lower side of said right target leg and thereby partially enclosing a lower target area therebetween;
- and
- f) a vertical beam target extending upward from the center of said back target wall.
A golf game and training device for developing pitching and chipping skills comprising:
- a) a circular target base having a topside and an underside, from which extends upward and circumferentially a target wall;
- said target wall forming a cylinder, the interior of which defines an upper target area;
- wherein a rear portion of said target wall extends upward beyond the height of adjacent target wall portions so as to form a back target wall;
- b) a front target leg depending from the center of the forward edge of said target base;
- c) a left target leg depending from a left rear position along the circumference of said target base:
- d) a right target leg depending from a right rear of said target base;
- and
- e) a circular skirt target depending from said target legs and defining a lower target area within the area of the circle.
