    When it comes to getting my Pro V1x ready for a round, I always use a purple Sharpie to mark my golf ball. Purple was my grandmother's favorite color and it's still my mother's favorite... so it's a nice reminder for me on the course. 

    How about everyone else?

    I've never used a sharpie to mark my ball but i'm thinking about changing it up..  I'm going to start off with a sleeve and give it to my boys.  I'll them doodle all over the ball, let it dry and then I'll take those sleeves with me to the course...

    We'll see how that goes...  I'll be sure to post some pics if that happens..

    Just like Duffy Waldorf did years ago...

    My usual combination is a black sharpie down the side stamp & a red circle of dots around the #1 on the Pro V1.

    I  tried giving it to my daughter to "decorate" and it came back to me with EVERY single dimple colored in multiple colors.  I couldn't even tell what kind of ball it was.  Now she understands to just put her favorite sign on ONE side of the ball, not all over it.

    Green is my go too color, its rare anyone uses it making finding my ball easier.

    I guess I'm a black user more often than not. Probably since I use black pens for most everything and I always have black sharpies around.

    Always mark my Pro V1x with Florescent Orange Sharpie. All my buddies in my playing group mark their Titleist Pro V's and Pro V1x's with red, green or black so I decided on being different. I was playing in a NYS amateur event up in Syracuse, NY when a fellow group member played another group member's ball by mistake because they both had marked their Pro V's with black dots and accrued a penalty for doing so! Lesson Learned!

    Usually Black, but I do have an assortment of colors in my bag. I am partial to the Sharpie Mini's. I have several hooked to a keyring, this helps me to keep them organized.

  15. Always a number 2 for competitive rounds, and never anything other than blue in support of the Wildcats. #BBN

    My usual is to mark my ball with both RED and BLUE dots -- I like the combination. I can see the contrasting dots yards away (when facing me) and I have still not met anyone that uses the same colour combination.

    I no longer sharpie my golf balls.  I order custom numbered with personalization, last name on them.  But, before I started this, I always carried, green, blue, red and black sharpies.  The color wasn't a big deal, but how and where was, initials are TF, so I combined them into 1 symbol, using a T, then adding the middle of the F to the middle of the T.  Always to the right of the number.

    I used to only put a green shamrock - but one time I was paired with a two-some at Ross Bridge in AL. One of them had the same ball, same shamrock. Now have a red dot left, green dot right of the number, even when it is #50 and personalized with TT in green.

    I mark my ball in a few different ways.  When I need some luck i go with the Green clover below the number.  When I am feeling good and things are rolling well I put a simple Red dot over the number.  When I am playing with people I dont really know, and I someone is playing the same ball as me I put a blue line thru the Pro V1 X on the side and two dots by the number.  When I am playing in a tournament I mark my ball with the Mizzou Varsity M stamp my wife had made for me.  Also, I have my name on the side of all my Pro V1's.  So there's a good chance a lot of guys at my club have a many of my balls, marked different way, in their bags after I lose them!

    I have a assortment of sharpies and typically mark my ball with the color that matches my shirt that day. Sometimes I may have a ball already marked and I will just use that one. However I try not to use black.

    Three black dots above the end of Titleist logo. Recently were given an array of color pens- purpke have been in play! (lol) But, I'll soon be marking three dots just left of the number to see where I contact it on club face.
