The yardage mark 5 is composed of a buoy and a yardage display plate that is erected on the buoy, and the buoy is fixed by a rope 13. There is.

Therefore, the golf ball hit from the bat 9 is collected at the suction port of the ball collection pump 6 by the inclination of the ball collection net 1, and the ball collection pump 6 sucks the golf ball together with water. Then, the ball collecting pump 6 sends the golf ball together with a large amount of water through the ball collecting pipe 7 to the ball collecting and sorting machine 8. Further, the ball collecting and filtering machine 8 filters and collects the golf balls from the water, and the water after filtering the golf balls is discharged again into the golf practice water area.

When the golf ball cannot be collected at the suction port of the ball collection pump 6 because the water depth is shallow and the ball collection net 1 cannot be sufficiently inclined, the ball collection net 1 is divided into a plurality of parts, and the division is divided. When the ball recovery pump 6 is provided in each of the above-mentioned parts, the gradient of the divided part of the ball recovery net 1 is increased, and the golf ball can be collected at the suction port of the ball recovery pump 6.
