I was playing a course yesterday that had red & white striped stakes down some fairways I said these were ob markers my playing partner disagreed, any ideas?
 
Best to read the local rules as it is a real odd one.

Was there another hole running parallel??? I'm guessing that it's a water hazard for one and OB on the other......or they got them cheap as a job lot!!??;)
 
They are often used as "sight posts" to give you a reference point to help finding your ball in the do dah.
