Game element retrieval

A device for retrieving a launched golf ball comprising:

• an enclosure having an opening with a pair of lower corners, the opening being oriented to receive the launched golf ball;
• a plurality of u-shaped frame members, each of the u-shaped frame members having a pair of legs, each of the legs having a free end region, the u-shaped frame members being aligned to form two groups of free end regions, wherein each group of free end regions is directed toward a corresponding one of the pair of lower corners;
• a pair of anchor portions, each of which is located at a corresponding lower corner for anchoring a corresponding group of free end regions, wherein:
• a first of said u-shaped frame members is operable to be positioned along a ground surface,
• a second of said u-shaped frame members is operable to be positioned in an upright orientation to border the opening;
• and
• a third u-shaped frame member is operable to be positioned at an incline between the first and second u-shaped frame members;
• a fourth u-shaped frame member is operable to be positioned between the second and third u-shaped frame members;
• a lower frame member which extends across a lower periphery of the opening and between the anchor portions;
• a covering to lie over the u-shaped frame members;
• a ball return panel positioned on the third u-shaped frame member and the lower frame member to return the launched golf ball toward the opening;
• and
• a catch net including a first portion to hang between the second and fourth u-shaped frame members and a second portion to hang from the fourth u-shaped frame member above the ball return panel to decelerate the launched golf ball after it enters the enclosure.
