Claim:
1. A system for painting a soil edge above a golf hole cup within a golf hole of a golf green, the system comprising: in combination: (a) an aerosol paint container containing paint; (b) a nozzle attached to the aerosol paint container, which, when axially depressed, causes the paint to be released from the aerosol paint container, the nozzle having: (c) an activator at least partially received in the golf hole, the activator having a base with an opening, the opening sized to receive the deflector therethrough but sized to be less than the outer perimeter of the shoulder; with the paint container in an inverted position and with the deflector extending through the opening and below the base, the base engages with the shoulder of the nozzle such that with application of an axially downward force on the inverted aerosol paint container, the nozzle is caused to be axially depressed, releasing the paint from the aerosol paint container through the longitudinal passage and out through the transverse passage of the stem, whereupon the paint is deflected by the deflector in a spray pattern toward the soil edge of the golf hole above the golf hole cup.
