Disclosed is a combination golf ball retrieving and dispensing means which comprises a shag bag and two tubes. The first tube is a conventional golf ball retrieving tube which may be screwed into a collar at the base of the bag. Golf balls retrieved through the tube may be stored in the bag by inverting the retrieving tube. Stored golf balls may be dispensed by removing the retrieving tube and screwing into its place a dispensing tube on an extending collar which surrounds a hole at the bottom of the bag. The dispensing tube is L-shaped with one free end secured to the collar of the shag bag. Balls are dispensed through the bag and through the first leg (which is connected to the collar) and the second of the L-shaped legs. A selective dispenser is secured to the end of the second leg and comprises a pivotally mounted spring loaded bar having two prongs. The prongs extend through a slot in the wall of the second leg. A pivotally secured lever arm may press down on the arm thereby compressing the spring and moving one prong out of the interior of the second leg and the second prong through the slot and into the interior of the second leg. The distance between the two prongs is sufficiently proportioned to admit one ball therebetween so that, when the bar is moved from the first position to the second position, the first prong is moved out of the interior of the second leg and the second prong substantially simultaneously enters the interior of the second leg, permitting the ball against the first prong to be dispensed and the second prong blocks the remaining balls from further movement. When the lever is released, the bar returns to the first position and the first prong reenters the interior of the second leg and the second prong is removed permitting another ball to come to rest against the first prong for dispensing.
