Golf ball mark repair tool

Abstract

A golf ball mark repair tool includes an integrated set of rosary beads. Attached to the circumference of a circular handle are rosary beads operable to facilitate praying the rosary. The beads are equally spaced and apart from the handle to provide the user with not only an ability to discretely conduct the rosary but an enhanced tactual feel. At the same time the tool is operable to repair a ball mark. The tool further includes a detachable center portion operable as a mean for marking a player's ball on the green.

       5 . The golf ball mark repair tool of  claim 3  wherein the recessed area includes magnetic material operable for magnetically and removably coupling the ball marker to the base portion. 
   
   
       6 . The golf ball mark repair tool of  claim 4  wherein the recessed area includes a central region void of material. 
   
   
       7 . A golf ball mark repair tool, comprising:
 a base portion having two tines extending therefrom with said base portion and said tines formed of a single piece of planar material wherein a surface of said base portion of said planar material has a recessed central area; and   a ball marker magnetically and removably coupled to the base portion and dimensioned to conform to the recessed central area.   
   
   
       8 . The golf ball mark repair tool of  claim 7  wherein the recessed area includes magnetic material operable for magnetically and removably coupling the ball marker to the base portion. 
   
   
       9 . The golf ball mark repair tool of  claim 7  wherein a central region of the recessed area is void of material. 
   
   
       10 . The golf ball mark repair tool of  claim 7  further comprising a plurality of objects affixed to a lateral edge of the base portion and orientated in a geometrically symmetrical fashion.
