I use the marker attached to my Taylormade divot tool. The tool is magnetic, keeping the marker in place. One less thing to shuffle around in my pants.

The mardi gras dabloons are also a cool idea. Really colorful anyway. Are those made of plastic or metal?

They are annodized aluminum. The ones they throw from the floats are usually a single color (silver, gold, red, blue, purple, green, etc...) There are also some fancier ones that are usually created for the people that are in the parade which can be very fancy.

I noticed during a round with my Dad one day that he was marking his ball with a Susan B Anthony gold dollar coin. I made mention that I thought it was "neat" that he had thought of doing that. After the round...he gave me the gold dollar.

That was quite a story. Thanks for sharing.

They have the President Obama commerative coins. That would make you popular.

Oh, noooo... My family voted for Obama. But, we live in Texas. I've been ridiculed out of a restaurant for wearing an Obama shirt. Doing anything "Obama" is a deathwish around here. Been seeing some really cool ideas on here. I really like the Canadian coins, too.

Took my grandson to the Buick Open a few years ago. Ran into someone I knew that was in management of Buick. They gave each of us what looks like a pocket knife. It has a knife blade, a small brush, a divot tool, a tool for spikes and on the outside a magnet Buick ball marker. It came with a case that fits on your belt. I carry it in my bag and wear the tool on the course and use the marker.

    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
    • Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.
    • No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁
