<p>A device to enable a golfer to mark the position of their ball accurately during a game of golf and/or to replace the ball accurately at the marked position comprises: a body (10) which a user can place on the ground (38) in abutment with the ball (12); a marker pin (32); and a magnet (28) for releaseably attaching the pin to the body so that the pin projects downwardly, can be driven into the ground adjacent the golf ball and can be released from the device. The device may further include an element (22,24,26) operable by the user when the body is on the ground to release the pin from the body so that the user can pick up the body leaving the pin in the ground. In another emodiment (not shown), a element like the element (22,24,26) is operable by the user when the body is on the ground to drive the pin downwardly into the ground. In a further embodiment, the marker pin can be attached to the device by user operable jaws, rather than by magnetic attraction.</p> |
