Ball Markers

[Deleted Member 1156]

I'm 'gaming' an off the shelf Royal Dornoch one just now.

I wasn't fitted for it but it seems to suit my putting style quite well

Yep. But it's a bit more entertaining than yet another thread about whether to buy a Titlaway Nanozoid Jetstream driver in preference to a Pinzuno Whoppitbetter and whether the extra yard distance is worth the extra £500

This tickled me! :rofl:

The recent Pokerchip GM free offering is a Orange/white colour which looks like something Ricky Fowler or Joost Luiten would use or anyone Cobra inclined or if youve been Tango'd
Previous ones have been either Black/White or Dark Blue/White

Which colour pokerchip works for you?

Whole new thread right There Phil

I am absolutely with you on that!

Of course, a slightly bigger hole would make the big markers less of an obstacle!!!

And I currently have 34 pokerchip markers but only game the two on regular occasions dependent on stimp and wind

I game a poker chip, it makes me feel like a big man. Plus the over 60's ladies are in awe of me thinking i am some kind of professional vegas poker player. You should see how many cups of tea i get offered in the 19th!

Chicks love poker chips. End.

I love you, Rooter!

This thread is another GM Forum classic!

10 pages on markers! Give me strength.

I don't care what people use to mark their ball and to say it is off putting is unfathomable.

What does annoy me though is the amount of times that people actually mark their ball - too much by plenty of golfers. Just leave it if it is in no-one's line. Same goes for all the lining up people do with the ball lines etc. Negligible benefits dreamt up by people that need to fill magazine space.

Mark it if it is in someones way otherwise leave it and when it is your turn, take your putt without all the faffing about. Over-marking is definitely a contributory factor in slow play in my opinion.

What annoys me is how people get so annoyed with other people.... Let people be people...

I don't see why it's "unfathomable".
Do you not ever move that twig or clag of mud which is just outside your putting line, but getting on your nerves?
Granted you're looking at the ball when putting but personally I'd like a clean view of my putting line when eyeing it up rather than have some alien object jutting out like a moles head.

Kudos for getting "unfathomable" into a post though

No, other things on the green; balls, markers, stones, twigs etc don't bother me at all. As long as there is nothing that the ball might reasonably hit then I am good to go. A moles head would be slightly bothersome though......

It wasn't rick In the end. It was mrs G buying him some new Dunlop clubs (he hasn't had any for a few weeks and in these times of economic tightness, needs must). Lord knows how she was gonna fit them in that little Merc?!

I like this , i might mark it to clean it or something but if your not on my line il put it straight back down and be lining up my putt as you are doing ur thing , saves time ,

if i knock it in to a foot or so and can finish without standing on ur line il have a look at it and finish it off 8/10 times ..
