Holes_with_Horus Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Always a horseshoe under/around the number (if there is a number). Was thinking this morning however, of numbering my balls this season, starting with 1 obviously, to see how many o go through…numbers will get pretty high I’m afraid!

Malski1972 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I use a ball marker that allows me to draw 3 lines on my Bridgestone balls similar to the Callaway triple track balls, and I use different colors so they are usually unique compared to anyone I play with.

BMDubya Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 No pics at the moment, but I’ve did this for awhile now, but the number of dots have increased throughout the years. 4 dots, 4 kids. 2 blue dots, 2 pink. 2 boys/2 girls. I do however, mark a black line over the name. I use the line off the tee, to where I want to aim my tee shot & hardly use the line putting. I’ve tried, but always feel off. If I do use it putting, it’s mostly 10ft & under.

46smokes Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I always play in a foursome & usually someone uses the same ball as mine. I put “X”’s on all my balls, all over the place. This way I can tell if it’s my ball, or not, w/o having to get close to it. this, for me works great. Sometimes when I hit into woods/water and I’m searching for the ball I hit, I actually find my older balls.(I play the same course about 95% of the time) Quote Link to comment

Rob W. Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 2 Blue dots above & below the number on Bridgestone. Dots move to the left & right on a Titleist ball. The Sneaky mark I did for a while, was to fill in the gap on the Bridgestone B with blue sharpie. In my group we have Pink dot(s), Green dot(s), Purple dot(s), Red line, Initials, yin/yang stamp, and the guy who plays whatever ball he found on the last hole Quote ROGUE ST MAX 9* - Mitsubishi TENSEI AV White 65 Graphite stiff GBB Epic Pro Tour 15* - Matrix Radix HD 7 stiff Cleveland Mashie 20.5* - Miyazaki 5G Stiff PXG O211 4-G - Steelfiber I95 Stiff Callaway Mac Daddy CB 54* & 58* - KBS shafts.

Papa Tango Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 If the ball is white, I spin them on a Check Go Pro and put a dot on the top of the spin axis. Then I draw a line along the spin axis and go from there. Any color is OK with me. If I'm using the Vice Drip, I don't mark it at all since it's easily identifiable. I also try to hit a different number if I need a provisional. Quote Ping G400 woods, hybrids, irons. Link to comment

hawkdriver Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I put the numerals "082304" somewhere on the ball. I was in a very serious accident, on this date, and almost died during the Life Flight, to the hospital, and then almost died during 3 of 8 surgeries in the ICU...it was literally touch and go. So now...I use that as my mark to let me remember that the Good Lord is not finished with me yet...and that Golf is just a game....and there many other things, in life, that are oh so much more important than a number, on a scorecard..... golfmule and wolfpacker92 2 Quote Driver - Sub 70 849D - Fujikura Pro 62 Tour Spec 4 Wood - Sub 70 949X - Sub 70 Project X 7 Wood - Sub 70 949X - Sub 70 Project X 5 iron - Sub 70 699 Pro U V2 23* 6-AW - Sub 70 699 Pro V2 SW - Sub 70 TAIII 2023 Limited Edition Forged 54* LW - Sub 70 TAIII 2023 Limited Forged 58* Putter - PXG Bat Attack Link to comment

golfmule Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Wow! I'm amazed at how many use green dots. I also use a green dot to the upper left of the number. I originally decided to use green because no one else at my course used green. There were plenty using black, blue or red. I've never played with anyone else using green. I've been doing it now for maybe 30 years. Quote Link to comment
Jim N Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I put three cursive "j" (my initial" around the equator more or less aligned with the alignment stripe. One of them is usually visible no matter how the ball lies, so I can determine it's mine without moving it.

MC3157 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Well, I use Vice Pro balls and normally wait till they send me a deal for free printing since I usually buy 10 dozen at a time. Then I have a graphic of my college mascot that I modified a bit, saved it as a .jpg and send that in to be printed on the ball. No one I play with can mistake who the ball belongs to!! In fact, I have had friends come in after a round with one my "lost" balls they found and they bring it right to me telling me where they found it!!
