Devices for hitting golf balls when in confined spaces
First Claim
1. A new and improved device for use in hitting golf shots when in a confined space comprising, in combination:
- a first small inverted u-shaped member having parallel vertical legs and a linear horizontal cross leg coupling the upper ends of the parallel legs;
a second large inverted u-shaped member having parallel vertical legs and a linear horizontal cross leg coupling the upper ends of the parallel legs;
a main cable coupling the horizontal legs of the large inverted u-shaped member and the small inverted u-shaped member with the end of the cable attached to the large u-shaped member being at a higher elevation than the end of the cable attached to the smaller u-shaped member;
attachment means in the form of a downwardly extending central spike co-axial with each vertical leg, each attachment means having an upwardly extending projection to be slidably received by the lower end of each vertical leg, and with a horizontally extending flange therebetween with apertures for receiving supplemental stakes to securely couple each inverted u-shaped member to the ground at a distance to maintain the main cable in a taut orientation;
a hollow cylindrical sleeve secured about the main cable and traveling along the length thereof, the sleeve having a golf ball to be hit and a supplemental string having an upper end coupled to the sleeve and a lower end coupled to the golf ball to be hit with the length of the string sufficient to extend between the sleeve and the golf ball; and
a supplemental ball secured to the main cable at each end thereof adjacent to the associated horizontal leg of its associated u-shaped member to limit the path of travel of the golf ball.

Abstract
A device for use in hitting golf shots when in a confined space comprising a first inverted u-shaped member having parallel legs and a linear cross leg coupling the upper ends of the parallel legs. A second inverted u-shaped member has parallel legs and a linear cross leg coupling the upper ends of the parallel legs. A main cable couples the horizontal legs of the large inverted u-shaped member and the small inverted u-shaped member at a higher elevation. An attachment devices is securely coupled to each inverted u-shaped member to the ground at a distance to maintain the main cable in a taut orientation. Lastly, a hollow cylindrical sleeve secured about the main cable and traveling along the length thereof, the sleeve having a supplemental string coupled at its upper end to the sleeve and at its lower end to a golf ball to be hit.
