Golf Ball Mark Repair Tool

Abstract

This invention is a hand tool for use by a golfer to repair a ball mark including a flat handle and long axes of two parallel blades. The said blades have an angle against the soil to constrain the direction of the blades movements. Furthermore, the handle of the tool has instructions how to use the tool correctly in words along with an iconic instruction. Therefore, allowing a golfer to follow the unique steps in sequence applying the specially angled and shaped two parallel prongs only toward the desired blades movements in order and prohibiting the unwanted blades movements in order to fix a divot mark for the fasted divot damage recovery.

1 . A ball mark repair tool including a flat plane handle and two blades;
 the said blades disposed in planes parallel to each other and perpendicular to the plane of the said handle and the blade axes inclines about 35° relative to the plane of the said handle;   the said tool is made out of about 1/16′ thick single metal plate,
 the blade axes position in parallel distanced apart approximately 7/16″ wide, 
 the said blades having the thickness 1/16″, length ⅞″, width at handle inner end ¼″, width at outer end ⅛″; 
   the said handle and blades axes inclined about 35° relative to the plane of said handle constitutes the said tool angle about 215° between the handle and the blades on one side and about 145° on the other side;   the said handle with the 215° blades angle relative to the handle applies as the tool front and the opposite side as the tool back;   the words “Repair using” in the first line, “motion  1 ” in the second line, and “followed by  2 ,  3 ” in the third line are printed on the back of tool handle and an iconic instruction is printed on the right of the said three line words;   the said iconic instruction is an elevation view of a divot consists of a hemispherical ball mark indention in the mid section covered by the surface turf along with an indented turf laying down from the surface to the hemispherical depression left side wall;   the said indented turf has a raised region by a ball impact and connected to the surface turf at far left upper corner of the said hemispherical depression;   the said iconic instruction further has a print of the said tool inserted on the left just outside of the said divot depression and the next print of the said tool is inserted on the right just outside of the said divot depression, facing the each tool front toward the divot center;   the said tool print on left side on the said divot depression in the said iconic instruction is in position to stroke the 1 st  class lever action indicated by an upward circular motion arrow from the bottom of the said divot depression along with a print of numeral  1  nearby the tool handle to correspond to the said “motion  1 ” in words, instructing to reposition an indented turf to the surface as the very first step;   the said tool print on right side of the said divot depression in the said iconic instruction is positioned to make a horizontal push action to stretch the surrounding healthy turf toward the said divot center accompanied by a print of a horizontal straight motion arrow toward the divot center along with a print of numeral  2  above, to correspond to the said “followed by  2 ” in words in order to secure the said repositioned indented turf at the surface with the stretched surface turf as the second step;   the said tool print on right side of the said divot depression in the iconic instruction has an additional circular motion arrow pointing toward the divot center with a print of numeral  3  at the handle top to stroke the 2 nd  class lever action corresponding to the numeral “ 3 ” in words to seal a final small gap to complete divot repair job with turf as the final step.   
     
     
         2 . A ball mark repair tool as defined in  claim 1  makes possible the said indented turf recovery action with the 1 st  class lever action applying the tool front as the first step, followed by the said straight push motion from the different divot edges toward the divot center to secure the repositioned indented turf to the surface as the send step. 
     
     
         3 . The said instructions as defined in  claim 1  make possible the current invention to save the said indented turf by repositioning with the 1 st  class lever action applying the tool front toward the divot center as the first action, followed by the said horizontal straight push motion from the different angles toward the divot center to secure the said repositioned indented turf to the surface with the stretched surrounding surface turf.
