Abstract
Luminescent golf balls and a carrying case. A luminous substance having a radiant color is mixed into a soltuion of compounds used to produce golf ball covers so that when the cover has been completed, it is impregnated with the luminous substance. An octagonal carrying case has a false bottom that divides the case into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The upper chamber is lined with a light-reflective material. A single layer of golf balls and a light source are disposed in the upper chamber of the case and a first power supply for the light source is disposed in the lower chamber. Solar panels on the lid of the case provide an alternative power supply.
