(omis-+32) n n This invention relates to a golf game apparatus wherein ball receiving pockets yare positioned at l predetermindspaced apart ldistances fromvthe tee'.

4G This game consists of a series of devices I Il` spaced at predetermined distances on al driving 5o The .golf game device Iii constitutes thesalient part of this invention andconsists of a ring It which is vshown to be of an annular shape. The contour of this ring might be varied without-departing from the spirit of the invention. 55 Detachably secured to ring I6 is a pliable' :roll to the lower central opening 2t. ,y tral opening 28 is slightly larger than" the di- 15 Figure `1 is a .diagrammatic viewj f a golfk game' fusto-conical member i8, preferably made of a heavy fabricated. material which will not cause' the' projected golf'balls to rebound. This member I8 maybe foraminousv orprovided with eyelets 253 in order to preclude thelaccumulation of .ES` a excessive water during rain storms.y I The outer edgel portion 22 of member i3 is folded over ring IG and secured'by means rof a' This frusto- 10* conicalmember I8, when so positioned, presents an inwardly and downwardlyjextending wall 26 A of sufficient inclination to cause the golf ball to v This oenarneter'of a "golfballand is maintained at a fixed dimension'by means of an annular metal v ring 3! provided with an inner bead 32 on which is mounted a vcushion vmember 3d. lThis cushion member serves'as ,a' bearing for the edge portion 20" of the fabricated material of member I8 and also a rigid metallic part which might cause it to rebou ndor injure the fabric material.

able number of the golf balls as they are deposited inthe frusto-conical member. In order to prevent accidental rolling ofthe golf ball from member I8, a tuck or plait 52 is provided. This tuck is produced by folding to- 'V with. This is accomplished by providing stand- 50 v ards .53 which are adapted to be driveninto the' ground with their end portions extending thereabove to receive ring I6. l
Referringgto Fig; 6it will be noted that a horizontally disposed U-shaped yoke 58 is pro- 55 i.
standard are preferably welded together with the yoke extending therebeyond and perforated at 6U to receive a pin 62 which serves to hold the standard andring in fixed relation. n It will be noted that the fabric is cut away at 64 in order to permit the positioning of ring in yoke 58.
Should it be found desirable to slightly incline the plane of ring I6, relative to the ground surface this can be accomplished by simply driving the front or. rear standard a greater depth into the ground.
In the playing of this game, each contestant will be provided with balls bearing likenumerals so that at the end of the game, the attendant removes the balls from the various devices l0 and credits the contestant with the number of balls he hasdeposited in said devices.
With this type of equipment, wherein the container lill is sufficiently large, it is apparent that the attendant would be able to keep proper records of this game with a minimum amount of labor. Furthermore, these records would be accurate. l
It will be noted that the diameters of the various devices l0 vary to suit the distances of th drives. V
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is:
l. A golf game ,apparatus comprising a ring supported in substantially horizontal position above a supporting surface; a pliable member detachably supported and presenting a downwardly extending wall terminating in a central opening;
a depending flange member circumscribing said central opening; and a ball container removably secured to said flange member adapted to receive the golf balls received on said pliable member and delivered through said centralopening. y
2. A golf game apparatus comprising a ring supported in substantially horizontal position above a supporting surface; a pliable member detachably supported at its marginal edge to said ring and presenting an inwardly and downwardly extending wall terminating in a central opening; an upwardly extending tuck formed in the marginal edge portion of 'said pliable member within the connes of said ring; and a ball container carried by said pliable member beneath said central opening whereby balls deposited on vided at the top of standard 56. The yoke and said pliable member will be directed through said central opening and into said container.
3. A golf game apparatus comprising a ring supported in substantially horizontal position above ay supporting surface; a pliable, foraminous member detachably supported at its marginal edges to said ring and presenting an inwardly and downwardly extending wall `terminating in acentral opening; a depending ange member circumscribing said central opening; and a ball container removably secured to said flange member adapted to receive the golf balls received on saidv pliable member and delivered through said central opening. v
4. A golf game apparatus comprising 'a ring supported in substantially horizontal position above a supporting surface by spaced apart, detachable standards; a pliable member detachably supported at its marginal edge to said ring and presenting an inwardly and downwardly extendving wall terminating'in a central opening; an upwardly extending` tuck formed in the `marginal edge portion of said pliable member within the confines of said ring; and a ball container detachably carried by said pliable member beneath said central opening, whereby balls deposited on said pliable member will be directed through said central opening and into said container.
5. A golf game apparatus comprising an annular ring detachably supported in a substantially horizontal position on vertically disposed standards; a substantially frusto-conical pliable member detachably secured at its outer marginal edge to said ring; a flanged ring secured at the central portion of said conical member whereby an opening is provided at the lowest point of said conical member; and an annular cushion member positioned intermediate saidv conical member and said flanged ring.-
6. A golf game apparatus comprising an inverted, truste-conical member having pliable walls and a lo'wer central opening whereby golf balls delivered to thefrusto-conical member will be directed through said central opening; an inwardly and upwardly extending, continuous plait formed adjacent the marginal edge of said frustoconical member and disposed at substantially right angles thereto; and a golf ball container removably carried by said frusto-conical member to receive balls passing through said central opening. f
