I just use a Canadian dime as it's magnetized and fits my ball mark tool.
I just don't understand the "boutique" ball marker craze. It's just not my idea of money well-spent. Sorry if this sounds like "get off my lawn guy"...but I truly don't see the reason but to each their own.
Be safe and be well.

I use a ball marker chip, the ones that look like poker chips, and a metal one. I like the chip sometimes better than the metal because they have lots of different lines. The chip also is lightweight, so I prefer a chip over metal sometimes. I do use the metal sometimes because it is on my divot repair tool. Overall though I use the chip.

I had my Cypress Point marker, but I lost it. I typically use my TT marker, but if it is in someone’s direct line, I just use a dime…

Same for me on the ball markers, those TT makers are sweet. Not sure there are any that are better than another. Probably just personal preference. They do just sit on the green.

I keep a ball marker of every memorable golf course and/or tournament I go to.

Great call, Diego. I just started doing this. Great memory of courses played.

I have just a few. I don't really use ball markers that much, since 90% of the time it's just my son and I playing.

The first was a gift from my youngest son, always keep that one in my bag. The second and third were gifts from a fellow FJC and TT member. Was hoping to get a Masters one this spring, as I originally had tickets, but due to the pandemic they cancelled my tickets. Should be carried over to 2022, hopefully.

I try to pick up a poker chip type marker, often ones with the smaller magnetic marker in the middle, from the higher end courses I visit and rotate those through the weeks as I play. That's in addition to the TT ball markers I've acquired at Team Titleist Invitationals and other TT events I've participated in.

Great comments TT crew! Here is a pic of the ones I currently have. I need to get a TT one in there. Hopefully this season.

Some Titleist and some from favorite courses. Usually just use a coin while playing to avoid losing a favorite.

I like to purchase ball markers from the special courses I've played. It's a little cheaper than buying a cap or a shirt.

I love collecting ball markers a little too much

I like to use the a chip style marker. I have a few from the some courses I have played (Torrey, Pasatiempo). I also have the Pars and Peaches Cameron coin from the 2019 Masters along with a Euro coin. I like to buy a marker from courses I have played generally, it's a reminder of a good time.

i used to use a 1988 canadian dollar coin until i lost it playing in a scramble last year.
now i just use a US quarter with my birth year.(it doesn't sting as much when i can find another if i loose a quarter)

Forgot about these 3

I lose ball markers as fast as clubhead covers. For me its penny's, nickles, or a dime, never seem to lose them.

Anything but poker chips or tees. In my opinion the point of a markers is to get the ball of of the way and always the person putting to roll right over it (if they would happen to hit it). Honestly if you use a poker chip, I despise you.

I alternate between a 1 Euro coin with the Baru Harp from my first trip to Ireland and a die-cut Circling Raven logo. Both blend into a shiny green and are hard to see...I should probably find something a little easier to see but both are meaningful to me.

I have a rather nice collection of ball markers, but some of them feel like manhole covers in my picket. My favorites always seem to go back to foreign coins. A few of my favorites from Bermuda, Ireland and Australia. Perfect size and no one else has one like them. We are heading to Europe in June (fingers crossed, just finished my series of COVID vaccines today) and hope to pick up a few more coins.

I use a half dollar coin or a marker from my club, depending on if i need it to be flatter on the ground. Nothing exciting but my half dollar coin was given to me by my grandfather so it's special to me.

I like the idea of using fun markers...but $25-$50 per marker is not fun to me.

I end up using a quarter or odd coins I have collected over the years from other countries.
