Claim:
A roadway-transportable apparatus comprising: (a) a golf ball target surface configured for use on a golf driving range as a target practice green by a person hitting a ball towards the target practice green from a remote tee area and formed of at least a pair of panels, each of said panels having a top impact surface and a bottom surface, said panels occupying a first configuration whenever said panels are positioned about 180° with respect to one another, in said first configuration said panels abutting together along a common joint, said top impact surfaces of said panels being substantially coplanar and coextensive, thereby forming said golf ball target surface; (b) configuration adjustment means operatively connected with said panels, said adjustment means being capable of positioning said panels in a second configuration, in said second configuration said top impact surfaces of said panels being substantially non-planar and discontinuous, and an effective width of said apparatus being significantly less than when said panels are in said first configuration; and (c) a support frame comprising: (1) at least one axle; (2) at least two wheels attached to said at least one axle; (3) a support structure mounted on said at least one axle and attached to said at least a pair of panels; and (4) means for connecting said axle to a vehicle, whereby said golf ball target surface may be collapsed to said second configuration and legally towed on a highway.
