My wife gave me a very nice 1947 half dollar for my birthday and I use it as my ball marker. Why 1947, that's the year I was born.

You don't have to mark it when it's already in the hole.

Nice work ;)

I like a new dime. They are small but easy to find. I look all over the green if I use a dull penny. You can't hide that lost look on your face either! I went with an exotic coin one round, until I lost it. Dimes only cost 10 cents.

I've been using hatclip ballmarkers for a few years now. Always know where it is, no digging, no forgetting it in the cup holder in my vehicle. Right now I am using the one I got from the 2007 U.S. Open. The one I had from Firestone got knocked off of my clip a couple of months ago.

I collect ball markers from every course I've visited (that and shirts). One that I use all the time was bought on eBay....a magnetic Minnie Mouse. Once I left her on the green and offered a reward to anyone who found her. One of the workers found her!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      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?
