I'd post a pic, but then someone might copy it. So far I haven't seen anyone else with the same scheme as I use...

My mate has exactly the same as you 😮😜

I actually went back and read some of the posts from 2010, I joined somewhere around 2011-2012 I think. So it was cool to read posts from a few folks that aren’t around anymore 

Pretty sure I remember that one, I wanna say I still use the same mark but might have to go back and look. Could be interesting...

Blue ink on white balls, black ink on yellow. A for Addison and T for Thomas (my munchkins) on each side of the number on both sides. Always mark one ball with same letters only on one side in case on the emergency provisional. Also have THEZIPR imprinted on them.

Until we get the MGS test results, I’m going to continue with the leftover ProV1x stock from last season.

 

Every ball gets one yellow dot on the side where the ProV1x line is to the right. I started using yellow in 1999 when I learned how David Duval marks his in a WITB special. Been working well for me ever since.

 

Oh, and I don’t use #2 balls. They’re bad luck.

My daughter saw me marking balls (3 green dots below the number) - "ohhhh, coool! Can I draw on your golf ball dad?" Sure, why not.

For those that know.... you know.

For those that don't, its the TriForce from Legend of Zelda games.

(I mark my balls when she's not around now)

I don't have a pic of mine at the moment but they usually look like chicken pox.. i put red dots all over evenly spread out so you can see the red dots no matter how it's sitting.  Easy to identify...

Two blue crosses, one on either side.

I can usually identify from a few feet away as one of the crosses is usually visible.

I also sort my balls into sets of 4, one of each number, and use them in sequence so i can easily identify provisionals too.
