Abstract:
A pitch-mark repair tool to be carried by a golf club (e.g., a putter) to enable a golfer to quickly and easily repair an impact area at a putting green of a golf course caused by the impact of a golf ball striking the green during play. The pitch-mark repair tool includes a base to be affixed to the grip which surrounds one end of the golf club shaft. A plurality of upstanding earth leveling prongs project from the base for use in lifting up the earth to a level, smooth surface over the impact area to be repaired. A fastener having a set of helically wound screw threads extends through the base and the grip for receipt in the existing vent hole of the grip for holding the base against the grip. An end cap is detachably connected in surrounding engagement with the base to enclose the upstanding prongs therewithin and thereby prevent injury to the golfer. A recess is formed in the end cap within which a standard golf ball marking disk is seated so as to be readily available to the golfer for marking the position of his golf ball on a putting green.
