权利要求
1. A tool for repairing an earth depression made by a golf ball, said tool comprising: a one-piece thermoplastic member having a blade with edges that converge to form an angle of 10* to 30* between the edges as they proceed toward a puncturing point that has a radius of at least 0.020 inch, whereby the tool can be safely carried in a clothes pocket without a protective cover on the puncture point; and a handle integrally formed with an upper end of the blade, said handle having a front wall, a rear wall, and a protruding rib on each of the front and rear walls, said ribs being adjacent upper and side edges of the handle to provide a gripping ridge for manipulating the tool; said handle having a convexly curved upper edge and convexly curved side edges which give a generally teardrop shape; and a depression in each front and rear wall of the handle, and depressions being bounded by the ribs and adapted to have advertising indicia therein.
2. A tool as set forth in claim 1, wherein the handle has indicia that are located in at least one of the depressions, and these indicia are raised letters integral with the handle, thus reducing slippage of the handle when grasped between a golfer''s thumb and forefinger.
