PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate a movable part and a sliding part, to form a stick in one body to flexibly deform and to give a restoring function by making the stick consist of a lower part on a grounding side, an upper part on a stick mounting side piercing a stick mounting hole and a flexibly deforming part combining both of the parts provided with an annular recessed place and making the entire stick of an elastic material. SOLUTION: This flexible ferrule for a stick consists of a lower part 1 on the grounding side, an upper part 2 on the stick mounting side fixed with the lower end of the stick 3, a flexibly deforming part 4 provided between the part 1 and the part 2 and combining both of the parts 1 and 2 and an annular recessed place 5. The part 1, the part 4 and the part 2 are integrally formed and the whole of them are formed in the shape of a thin and long circular cone and made from an elastic material such as rubber, plastic. A mounting hole 6 opening at an end face on the side of an upper part 2 is enabled to insert-fix the tip of a desired stick. Since the ferrule itself is entirely made from an elastic material, there are not a sliding part, a gap, thereby there is no room for soil, rain water, etc., to enter in spite of deforming and bending.
