Abstract
A golf tool having a variety of uses includes a circular hole for checking the roundness of a golf ball. The hole may also be partially obstructed to prevent a ball from passing through the hole. Such capability, together with a snap permitting the attachment of the tool to the shaft of a golf club, allows the tool to be used to retrieve a golf ball from an inaccessible position. The tool also has two fingers, whose moderately sharp ends may be used to clean the grooves on the face of the head of the golf club, and to repair ball marks on golf course greens. The tool may be struck into the ground in an upright position using these fingers, and a flattened portion on top used to keep the hand grip of a golf club off of wet grass. A slot on the tool may be used to hold a cigarette, when the tool is in such an upright position.
