Golf club with pick and place feature

A golf club comprising a shaft in turn connected to a driving head, said head having front, side and bottom portions and including a generally planar ball contact face at the front portion thereof, said side portions including a curved upright wall extending rearwardly from said contact face and said bottom portion defined by a bottom wall such that the inside surfaces of said front, side and bottom portions define a hollow compartment within said driving head, said bottom wall including an opening of a diameter slightly larger than a golf ball forming the entrance to said compartment for such ball, said compartment including a ball supporting rest surface on which the ball is adapted to rest on top thereof, said ball supporting rest surface separate from and position to the rear of said opening and extending from the rear periphery of said opening towards the rear of said curved upright wall, said compartment further including a laterally extending bumper bar positioned rearwardly of said front wall inside surface and aligned above the forward periphery of said opening such that relative movement between said head and a golf ball positioned on a supporting surface and aligned with said opening causes the ball to contact said bumper bar as the golf ball moves into said compartment and be forced rearwardly into said ball supporting rest surface whereupon the ball and club can thence be moved as a unit and the ball then repositioned as upon a driving tee by tilting the head such that the ball rolls off the supporting rest surface and downwardly through said opening, wherein said head further includes guide means for guiding the ball rearwardly from said opening to said rest surface and thereafter forwardly from said rest surface to said opening, said guide means comprising a pair of laterally spaced ball contacting members rearwardly inwardly extending from said front wall inside surface and said guide means ball contacting members are a pair of rails extending between said front wall inside surface and the rear of said curved upright wall.
