Abstract
A multi-purpose golf tool 10 comprises a housing 12 having an exterior surface including a first side with a window therein and a second side with first and second openings therein. A score wheel 18 inside the housing 12 has one side with numbers displayed thereon and a rim. The rim partially extends through the first opening to enable the wheel 18 to be manually rotated by pushing against the portion of the rim extending through the first opening. The wheel 18 is mounted so that individual ones of the numbers move in sequence into alignment with the window as the wheel 18 is rotated. A brush 20 mounted within the housing 12 is manually moved between a first position where the brush 20 is enclosed within the housing 12 and a second position where the bristles of the bush extend through the second opening outward from the housing. The tool 10 also includes a fork 22 mounted on the exterior surface of the housing 12 for repairing divots, a belt clip attached to the exterior surface of the housing, and there is a hole in the exterior surface for receiving a ball marker.
