  • A

    partition

    50 is affixed to the upper surface of the

    upper section

    12 and lower 14.

  • The

    partition

    50 has a curvilinear outer surface, a planer base,

    front portion

    52,

    side portions

    54, and peripheral inner and outer edges along the

    front portion

    52 and

    side portions

    54. The

    partition

    50 is preferably made of wood composite. A

    channel

    56 is defined by inner surfaces of the

    front portion

    52 and

    side portions

    54 of the

    partition

    50, and the upper surfaces of the

    upper section

    12 and

    lower section

    14. The

    side portions

    54 of the

    partition

    50 are generally aligned perpendicular to each other.

  • A first panel insert 60 and a second panel insert 70, with upper and lower surfaces, are illustrated in

    FIG. 2

    . The inserts are removeable and securely mountable to the

    upper section

    12 and

    lower section

    14 in the defined provided

    channel

    56. The

    first panel insert

    60 has a peripheral

    front edge

    62 of predetermined shape to mount securely against the

    front portion

    52 of the

    partition

    50, and

    peripheral side edges

    64 to securely abut against the

    side portions

    54 of the

    partition

    50. The

    second panel insert

    70 has a peripheral

    front edge

    72,

    peripheral side edges

    74 and a peripheral

    rear edge

    76. The

    front edge

    72 of the second panel insert 70 abuts against a

    rear edge

    66 of the first panel insert 60. The

    first panel insert

    60 has a

    passage

    68 complimentary with the

    passage

    40 of the

    upper section

    12.

  • Simulated

    turf material

    22, such as felt, is secured to the upper surface of the first panel insert 60 and the upper surface of the second panel insert 70. The material provides consistent putting surface for practice. It should be recognized that different coverings can be installed to provide a variety of undulations and a variety of thicknesses. Thus, the surfaces can be provided to simulate actual putting conditions for the user. For an example, the turf material on the

    first panel insert

    60 may be angled to simulate a break in the putting surface, while the

    second panel insert

    70 has a flatter composition.

  • The

    passage

    68 of the

    first panel insert

    60 is aligned with the

    passage

    40 of the

    upper section

    12 to define a cup opening to allow golf balls to exit from the putting surface. A

    rim

    28 having a top surface and a lower surface is integrally formed in the opening. Insert

    members

    26 having a top surface and a lower surface,

    turf material

    22 secured to the top surface, and having a hole therethrough, are mountable on the

    rim

    28. The apertures of the

    insert members

    26 have alternate diameters to provide a variety of targets for the cup opening. The

    insert members

    26 thus allow more of a challenge for a player to make a practice putt.

  • As illustrated in

    FIG. 7

    , a

    cup

    80 is detachably mounted to the lower surface of the

    upper section

    12. A

    frame

    82 comprised of side walls and a base wall, protects the cup.

  • When mounted the

    panel inserts

    60, 70 provide an elevated surface relative to the remainder of the

    upper section

    12 and the

    lower section

    14. A

    slot

    24 is defined between the outer perimeter of the

    partition

    50, and the

    end wall

    18 of the

    upper section

    12 and the

    side walls

    16 of the

    lower section

    14 and

    upper section

    12. Any golf balls exceeding the perimeter of the

    partition

    50 are propelled into the

    slot

    24, and either return to the base of the

    device

    10 because of the elevation, or are retrieved by the player. By having the elevated panel inserts, putting accuracy and putter alignment, are more readily taught.

  • Opposed elevation adjustment means 30 are provided to allow the user to elevate the putting surface of the

    device

    10 as desired. The adjustment means 30 are secured to the

    upper section

    12. The preferred method of adjustment means 30 is illustrated in

    FIG. 5

    , and is comprised of an outwardly threaded

    rod

    32 with a

    knob

    34 at a first end and a

    round head nut

    36 at a second end. The

    rod

    32 is placed through a threaded

    brass insert

    38 mounted in a bore formed in the

    side walls

    16 of the

    upper section

    12. The

    brass insert

    38 securely engages with the

    rod

    32 to stabilize movement. The

    device

    10 is raised and lowered by turning the

    knob

    34.

  • As illustrated in

    FIGS. 1-2

    and 6,

    support platforms

    90 are provided upon which to mount the adjustment means 30. The

    platforms

    90 have lower surface and upper surface, and are generally rectangular shaped. The upper surface of the platform has integrally formed

    indentations

    92 therein, to securely engage with the

    head nut

    36 of the elevation means 30. The lower surface of the

    platform

    90 is in contact with ground surface.

  • When combined the elevation means 30 and

    platforms

    90 provide alternate settings for the slope of the putting surface. Adjustments can be made to compensate for uneven ground surfaces, and the adjustment means 30 on one side of the

    device

    10 can be raised or lowered, simulating a break in the putting surface. Each elevation means 30 can be independently to adjust the angle of the slope.

  • In use a player stands at the first end of the

    lower section

    14 after adjusting the elevation of the putting surface. The player can retrieve the golf balls after successful putting the ball through the cup opening. It can readily be seen that when the golf balls enter the

    slot

    24 after leaving the

    turf material

    22 on the panel inserts 60, 70 because of errant putts, that the slope of the

    device

    10 will return the balls to the golfer at the base.

  • With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function, and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.

  • Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
