Markers...

Does anybody here use a specific ball marker every time they play?

I always use the american 50 states quarters, at the minute I usually use the Connecticut coin.

I use a 10p because I tend to hit my ball picking it up if I use one of those with a spike in the middle

I use an old irish 10p from when they still had punts, I also use an old french 20 centime coin from the franc era. Its a great use for obsolete coins.

I use a couple of different markers (all usually magnetic), never spiked ones though for the same reason as above.

One of these.

Anything that does the job, but generally a magnetic marker.

Always carry three 1 euro coins in my pocket for marking my ball. Find them easier to locate amongst the tee`s and pitch mark repairer if i carry three.

I have both metal and plastic ones. I tend to use the metal ones for competitions and the plastic ones for bounce games. Don't know why but I just do.

Of the metal ones I have a few Royal Ascot ones, my Masters one from the GM forum competition last year, a US 25 cent, an old shilling and a few magnetic ones

I use one of about 75 I have in my bag, whichever one comes to hand. I have a sad habbit of usually buying a marker from every new course I play!

Not me. I use whatever is around. If I can't find a marker, I'll rummage around in my bag for a coin of some sort. Last week it was a 50p.

I use a quarter dollar , but I also have an old coin with cyrillic writing on it (no idea which country its from)

 

[Imurg]

I have a Titleist "peg" marker and a Callaway magnetic. Whichever comes to hand first.

With the change in exchange rates this has got to be a new definition of millionaire golf.

I use the Maters ball marker kindly given to me by GM for having a post published in the mag.

Magnetic Mizuno on the visor for me, it's the only one I've never lost....Yet.

 

[USER1999]

The magnetic one on my visor. Currently it is a smiley. Contrasts nicely with my mood.

 

[birdieman]

I use a 1962 penny every game I've played this year. Nice and big so easy found in pocket amongst the tees etc.
Cant mistake it with anyone else's marker too.
Agree defo avoid the small plastic spike ones - too easy to move the ball dealing with those.

Yep, same.

Kee meaning to empty the pocket and see how many I have.
