Ball Markers, do you display yours

[PhilTheFragger]

I have a large collection of ball markers,
Does anyone display them at all, or do they sit in a drawer gathering dust.

What do you lot do with them?

 

[Oddsocks]

I normally lose them, moan a bit then replace them. Have acquired a few recently through golf days but definitely not precious over them.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Use them

 

[RichA]

Only got one. 1930s silver dollar. It lives in a tin in my golf bag with my pitchmark repairer and membership card.

 

[rudebhoy]

Don't see the need for them, 10p coins work perfectly.

 

[IanM]

I use them. Although I got a magnetic display frame for Xmas last year. All the special courses etc are going on there.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Use them. I have a small / pouch bag, given to me at a posh course a few years ago where I keep my ball markers, and pitch repairers. Every round is a lucky dip .

I'm not one for unused keepsakes, displays etc. I only get things I will actually use. Using them gives me the pleasure that I would not get by simply displaying them. All people are different though.

 

[Orikoru]

I only have one ball marker, from a stainless steel ball marker / pitch repairer my wife gave me with our initials on. Sadly the bit that clips them together broke, so they just sit separately in the golf bag.

I keep scorecards from new courses I play in a collection - which also lives in a draw..

 

[VVega]

Collecting them from courses I visit, planning to have a display built but not done it yet

Etsy has quite a few listed:

I have over 150 ball markers which I have every intention of mounting and framing. Just can't find the right solution yet.
As soon as I do, they're getting framed and hanged on the wall.
As for what I do with the 150 strokesavers and scorecards I've collected over the years... not a clue.

 

[Arthur Wedge]

I have three bags

One which has all the ball markers that I use ( my favourites)


The rest are in two bags

The same with pitch repairs

I also have two boxes of course planners

Have a ball marker and pitch repairer from every course I have played

Ball Markers, do you display yours​

Yes:

 

[garyinderry]

My markers are sitting in a coffee jar. One day I'll get round to displaying them.

For me they are small bits of art and I hate when a club puts minimal effort into making a good one.

Preferably small coin size. Hate the ones with little studs on the underside. Not a fan of big naff ones.

 

[Deleted member 36474]

I use an England Golf marker and I have a 2 franc coin as a spare. Don't feel the need for any more.
Good little earner for clubs the price they charge

 

[Backache]

Lose them, particularly the ones I like, little plastic ones with a short peg that are unobtrusive to others putting.

 

[Ye Olde Boomer]

Mine are dimes.
Those are our smallest coins, smaller than pennies.
They have Franklin Delano Roosevelt's face on them.
You go to the bank, give the teller a dollar bill, and she gives you ten ball markers.

No real need to display them, though.

 

[jim8flog]

I just use coins. Particularly ones from foreign countries that have no other use here.

Are you going to display them in alphabetical order...
If so...gonna be a pain when you play a new course beginning with B...

Ah, but what if he's playing all the courses in alphabetical order?
