A golf ball retriever includes a plate member with spaced apart tear shaped tines each having a leading edge and an opposing trailing edge, and a surface spaced apart from an opposing surface of an adjacent tine a distance greater than the diameter of a golf ball for enabling the tines to guide the golf ball between the spaced apart surfaces during a raking movement of the retriever. A flange extends along the trailing edge of each tine to reduce the distance between surfaces to less than the diameter of the golf ball for lifting the ball from its position typically within a muddy water hazard bottom and trapping the ball between the tines during a raking movement of the retriever.

Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the device comprises a means (20) for manual unblocking, acting on the mechanism. 4. Device according to claim 1 characterized in that the electrical actuating means (2, 32) coacts with at least one control card (22, 23, 24) adapted to be secured to the device. 5. Device according to claim 4, comprising moreover at least one housing (21) containing at least one said control card (22, 23, 24) coacting with the electrical actuating means (2, 32). 6. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the mechanism movable at least partially in translation comprises a portion blocked in rotation and movable in translation by screwing or unscrewing, the portion having a shape coacting with the threaded rod (4) driven in rotation by the electrical actuating means (2, 32). 7. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that said mechanism is a positioning mechanism. 8. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that said mechanism is a holding mechanism. 9. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that said mechanism is a gripping mechanism. 10. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the device comprises a means (43) for manual unblocking, acting on the electrical actuating means.
