Your Golfing superstitions

This is MENTAL, but i love it! Same parking space, thats a new one to me!

I have a coin, its a US quarter but a state one (they released a design for each state, mine is texas).
i will only use that to mark my ball and will always have it face down. So much so, if someone marks my ball with their coin, i will put my ball back down, and remark my ball. even if its only 6inches away (careful how i worded that before some clown tells me i am breaking the rules).

they day i lose that coin (or the other two indentical ones i have) is the day i quit golf!

I have had loads of those ball markers. gutted when I lose them but soon get over it. I used to have a red quarter dollar (they were used by the bar owner in his jukebox), that one took a while to get over. Lost it in the car park at Meyrick Park and walked around for ages trying to find it.
 
I am not at all superstitious. However! I have a certain watch that I play better when wearing, I also have a US 50 cent ball marker that I putt better with and it does work better when marking face down. My putting also improves when my putter head cover is parked on the end of my umbrella handle. Oh! and my shoes have to be tied in a double bow.
 
Got a sterling silver ball marker that I use, if I loose it not sure what I'd do, think I better try finding another. White wooden tees only, every tee shot the ball has to be on the tee a certain way, logo showing on the right side of the ball opposite the club head.
 
Same spot in the changing rooms. At my home club I like to walk on to the tee the same way, like you can get to the tee two ways!!
 
Superstitions are for the weak willed and I don't have any time for them at all ................................ however I ALWAYS put my left shoe on first.
At the start of the round you'll find mysScore card in back left pocket, DMD in back right, loose change in front left & front right has ball marker, 3 x pink castle tees & 6 x other tee pegs.


Slime.
 
I always put my socks on before my shoes but apart from that, nothing really.
 
No real superstitions for me at all I think. Rock up and hit it more so than anything else.

I have a particular pocket in my bag for balls, tees, phone, ball markers and that but I don't think that's strange at all
 
No superstitions as such but whenever I can i always put my bag/trolley behind me so I can't see it when I'm stood over the ball.

Is that the one where you have a mystic sign on your forehead made from the burnt ashes of a persimmon driver and the shafts of two vokeys forming a pyramid pointing towards the lady Captains toilet?

If it helps let me know, I was thinking of trying that one.

That's exactly it. I though I was on my own, but now I know I'm not!

But do you have a chocolate roll stuffed under your left arm pit?
 
No superstitions regarding golf at all, I struggle enough to keep relaxed and not get frustrated, if I added superstitions into my round it would be painful.
