Big moose Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I put a blue circle around the number, all the guys I golf with know my mark so if they find one that I lost they give it back. We were on a golf trip ,the group ahead of us was with us. I found 3 prov1xs, every one was from the group ahead of us. He had his company logo on them so I gave them back, so it pays to mark your ball. Jim Shaw 1 Quote Frank musolino Link to comment

golfgame Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Just a simple marking. I find a bright green sharpie and hilite (mark over) the entire brand name of the ball. I find it very easy to see from a distance. The number of guys that do nothing about marking their ball amazes me. Quote Link to comment

GySgtFTL Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Different ways actually. I just bought a dozen AVX balls yesterday and marked each of them with a purple sharpie by coloring three dots on each side of the ball right under the number. That should be my last markings for a while though; I bought four-dozen Pro V1s with my name on them. Whenever Titleist gets around to shipping them. Quote Link to comment

MisterT Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Sadly, very few I play with mark their balls... or play with the same ball each round. I use a single dot under the number and a line off both end of the model but also don't use the line for putting like the OP stated. I like the line for the visibility when identifying my ball from a distance. I rotate between three color Sharpies so I usually have the same number Pro v1 with a red, green, and blue dot and line in my bag, in play, and as a Provisional, if needed.

dlm Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I'm an engineer that plays golf. I decided long ago to mark my balls with a blue Pi, some think it's a double TT, but it's the symbol for Pi. Two vertical lines with a horizonal line on top. My goal is to shoot 3.14 on each hole. That would be a nifty score! MadHatter and Papa Tango 2 Quote Dave Mueller Link to comment
Woody83 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I mark two balls when play starts, One I put an orange dot beside the number and a line on each side of the writing on the side of the ball. The second ball I mark with 2 orange dots and the lines on the side of the ball.

drb1956 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I use a yellow ball, and use a Check-n-Go in red Sharpie, to get the "equator line" on the ball. Takes a little time to do a box, but in my mind, I feel it helps my game. I use it on the tee, and on the green for alignment. I don't get anal about the alignment, and change it 3-4 times, especially on the green. I just line it up in the basic direction, and play away. Easily identifiable from a short distance on the fairway, as I show my playing partners my ball on the first tee. Does it help my game? Maybe! At least, again "in my mind", I have done something for my game that takes away any question or doubt about equipment I am using, as I am a high capper. Confidence in my equipment is paramount to me, so I can enjoy my game.

JohnnyU Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Well I do and don't do somethings. First I hit a Titleist Pro Soft ball. I really like the ball for my swing speed and game, luckily nobody else seems to hit that style of ball so the gives me pretty good isolation. Secondly, I do not place any marks on my ball because everyone else does. Thirdly, I am left handed so usually my ball is on the other side of the fairway from everyone else.

Team31m Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I just recently started marking a straight line that just extends the factory line and using that to help line a putt up. I feel like it helpedy start line, it's possible it was all in my head though. Lol Quote Link to comment

JeremyD Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 for fun, no mark. If I ever play competitively, I use a blue marker put a dot on either side of the number, then a blue line on both sides.
