I have a belt clip thing that I bought for $15 or so when I first started golf. It has a ball-mark tool, room for two tees, and a quarter-sized ball marker magnet. That's what I use. I also have a nicer ball-mark tool that has a similarly sized magnet. No problems with them running off in the bag.

Hat clip. it's always right there. If you don't wear a hat, it clips on to the belt. Or use a dime.

I keep my tees, plastic repair tools and some change in a ziplock bag. Sometimes, the change is used for ball markers. I have a small velvet pouch I also keep in the ziplock bag, in which I keep a couple of special repair tools and ball markers.

I also like to use random round things for markers, like the punch out from a metal electrical box. No biggie if it gets scratched or lost.

I have a small, cloth bag that's no more than 2x3 inches.....I think a spare pair of Oakley lenses came in it. I keep my repair tool and my ball markers in it. My wedding band goes in it while I'm playing. It stays in a dedicated pocket in my bag along with my tees. Always easy to find.

I have a hat clip. I also keep my repair tools, tees and ball markers in separate small zippered bags. I've gotten lots of them over the years in goodie bags. The hat clip is excellent. Just reach up and get it. Magnetized.

MI keep mine in the valuables pocket in my golf bag. The system works this way. Start of round, place wallet car keys cell phone valuables pocket and remove pitch repair tool with ball marker into pants pocket. Then reverse at the conclusion of the round. I also sometimes wear a hat with built in marker as well. Since nothing else is stored in this pocket it is quick and easy to find. I have a sun mountian sync bag btw.

I just put it in a medium sized pocket on the side of the bag. Deep enough that I can't pull it out when getting other stuff in there.

What marker do you use that get banged up? I only use metal ones and they couldn't care less.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
