Abstract
A golf ball retrieval device includes an annular collar sized for a snug friction fit onto a conventional golf ball. The collar in use is removable mounted on the grip end of a golf club and the collar tapped onto a golf ball so that the golf ball becomes frictionally lodged within the collar. The collar is stored in a resilient clip when not in use so as to journal a spike protruding from the collar into a corresponding elongate cavity in the handle of the clip.
