[Boomy]

Here's a picture of mine, showing it's age, like the owner.

Brill ? thanks for sharing! I hope to use mine for long enough to end up as well weathered.

I've got one for the scorecard, had it for about 10 years so got my money's worth.
I like it, keeps the pencil handy too.

100% a valid point for keeping the pencil handy too, and saves stabbing yourself in the finger when you reach in your pocket ?

 

[Orikoru]

Yeah ? valid point - I’ve always carried mine in my back pocket but it’s defo not going to fall out of a front pocket. I wonder if guys default to the back pocket because of usually carrying a wallet in there?!

Funnily enough I carry my wallet front left as well (off the course that is) so maybe some correlation. Less likely to get nicked.

Had to smile earlier this year.

Nice display of score card holders on the pro shop counter just as I was going in to see the manager about the size of our new cards which will not fit in scorecard holders.

I have a very nice leather bound one from a corporate golf day - but I'm not a fan of them and rarely use it.

I am a back pocket when it is dry and jacket pocket when it is wet person. Trouble is our new cards only just fit in a back pocket.

My girls bought me a nice scorecard holder a few years ago for Father’s Day so I use that if the card fits in it

I use a thin leather scorecard holder which fits in my back pocket nicely and holds the pencil in a loop. The problem with yardage book type holders, apart from size, is that they tend to be of a design that “hinges” at the top, whereas most UK scorecards are designed for side opening.

These things would make me swear if a playing partner got one out.

I'm Looking forward to when we can just use an app.

Nooooooooooo ?

Dare I ask why? ?

My club scorecard fits well, but I know other club scorecards can be a lot larger.

I was given a really nice leather one...sometimes I use it, mostly I don't.

Can't imagine why anyone would have strong views about them either way

I use a heather and links one. It is black leather, with a pink snakeskin interior. It's just a score card holder though. I use it all the time.

I get really p'ed off when some one marks my card in a medal, and I get back a soggy screwed up piece of rubbish that is unreadable, and marked in 5h pencil, and they get theirs back like new, filled in in biro, which anyone can read easily.

The biro is a fisher AG7 space pen. The original space pen. Writes on anything.

I like using my score card holder, nothing worse than the card coming apart from being stuffed in a pocket.

I also keep my stats on paper as I go so it's useful to hold this as well.

Just need to buy a better one, just have a cheap and cheerful one just know that does the job fine.

 

[Orikoru]

One of my mates has a scorecard holder, but weirdly he never takes the cards out of it. Each time we play he puts the new scorecard in front until he's got a wad of about 20 scorecards in there.

Very nice ?? I’m not sure I need one that writes in space, but maybe one that writes well whilst in the heather or rough ?
