In a golf driving range (10, Fig. 1 not shown) golf balls (21) incorporating uniquely-coded passive transponders are collected by means of a device havin g a receiving channel (22) which directs the balls past a reader (25) employin g RFID technology which reads the codes and supplies this information via a li nk (32) to a central computer for subsequent display. The reader (25) also actuates a gate (28) to direct the balls to a "reject" receptacle (29) or an "accept" receptacle (30). Similar devices are used for dispensing golf balls (50, Fig. 4 not shown) or supplying balls to an automatic tee device (70, Fi g. 5 not shown). Alternatively balls can be identified on or near a tee (84, Figs. 6 and 7 not shown) on a mat (70).
