Hit the 'gallery' button. Plenty of ideas here .

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

I dont really like marking my ball at all. I prefer it plain; since everyone marks their ball anyways I usually just leave it blank. I usually mark it a little for tournaments though.

One thing ill never do is put my name on a ball. If i hit a horrible shot and someone finds it they will know it was me! haha.

3 small circles filled in (in this order) = blue, purple, pink - to represent my family
blue - me ~ purple - wifey ~ pink - daughter

i put them on the opposite side of the lettering that says B-330RX
"My swing is homemade - but I have perfect flaws!" - Me

Not very creative, but 3 KU blue dots under the number on each side of the ball.

I was drawing a little frowny, happy, or determined face on my balls but decided it was more trouble than it was worth. I almost always play earling morning and the ink was coming off a little too easily so I pretty much don't bother with anything these days since they guys I play with don't use the same balls as me anyway.

My club championship is this week and I purchased those golfdotz thingines to mark my balls with. They are not worth the price imo but it's ok for a once a year thing. They are almost $7 for 12 markers. They certainly were easy to apply. Whether or not they'll hold up is another question.

I had a gift card about to expire, so I just ordered 2 dozen Nike balls with my name on them.Normally I don't mark them, I know what kind of ball I'm playing, and I know where it went. No need to mark one, IMHO.

Black line between Titleist and the number.

Cheap balls, Ill draw faces on them making them look like their going really fast, or scared. It makes me chuckle when I tee off, loosens me up.

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
