A device for manipulating an object on the ground from a standing position comprising an elongate shaft 4, a manipulator 2, a controller for the manipulator 2 wherein the manipulator 2 and controller are spaced apart from each other and a stabilising device 10 wherein the stabilising device comprises a ground engaging foot 13 and a resilient member 12 arranged to urge the foot 13 towards an extended position such that in use the foot 13 engages with the ground and the resilient member 12 acts against movement of the manipulator 2 towards the ground. The device may be used to pick up or position golf balls or tees. The resilient member 12 may be a helical spring as part of a piston 14 arrangement. A gripper with pivoting jaws may be used for the manipulator 2. The stabiliser 10 may be pivoted or slid away from its position in use to a stowed position if not required. A spike may be provided on the foot.
