Thought it would be entertaining to see how each person marks their ball. I am currently playing the Nike Platinum One ball. I mark it with 2 black dots above the swoosh which makes it look like the ball is smiling lol. How about you?

With a red dot somewhere on the ball, usually above or below the name on the ball (Wilson, Maxfli or whatever brand I am using at the time).

Small blue smiley face (2 dots for eyes and a small smile) on the emptiest part of the ball. If I am in a bad mood, I might change it to a flat line or a frown.

I mark my balls with a simple red 'X' through the number on both sides of the ball. Sometimes I use a green or black sharpie if I can't find the red one, but the red is my preferred choice.

I write on my ball a note saying "DO NOT PICKUP". I play a lot of muni courses where its very hilly and the locals like to pick up balls if they don't see anyone in sight.

I usually write random funny phrases all over, but I've lost focus because I couldnt stop laughing. Plus now I'm using a decent ball, so I'll probably stop. When I played HS meets I blacked out the name with a black bar.

I usually mark my ball with a "Z" under the number. One of my friends on our golf team lets me mark his ball with anything I can think of as long as it makes him laugh. Ever since we started doing it, he's been averaging about a 40 (per 9), so we're going to keep doing it.
I thought of getting custom golf balls that said "Caution: Explodes on Impact" or "Please Return to Me."

A red dot on each side of the ball that way I don't have to touch the ball to recognize it if there is any question.

I mark my ball with a birdie god... Have to admit that I stole it from someone on the Titleist web site. They have a bunch posted. Some pretty cool markings... I'm not that creative but this is rather easy to draw...

Smile, it makes people wonder what you're up to...

I almost hate to divulge, so I won't, I'll only hint:

| | o | | o

(the circles are actually dots, colored in)

Nothing in the swing is done at the expense of balance.

I'm so big of a Texas Longhorns fan that I actually have golf balls with the Longhorns logo and TEXAS above it... So far I haven't ran into any problems, as many aren't fans of Texas up here in Missouri... haha

The picture isn't actually the golf balls that I use, but they are real close to it.

    • Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things?

    • Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs. 
    • Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.
    • Day 1: Spent some time hitting some balls. Working on my hips and a “soft” and straight trail arm.
