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 ?

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. :LOL: 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 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.

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

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.

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.

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. :LOL:
