    Cool What's in your pocket?

    What do you carry in your pocket when you're playing?

    My tools... 1 long and 2 short tees, my trusty Shear-Line divot tool (with leather pouch, so I don't impale anything important ), and one of a large number of odd coins and such, to use as a ball marker.

    The coins are a collection of Canadian dimes and nickels, all with low years from 1959-1964, some German and British pence and two-pence, a Swiss franc, Mexican coins of various denominations, and a bunch of pewter tokens that have different Native symbols on one side, with the English translation stamped on the back.

    I made a stupid mistake in a tournament years ago that cost me a stroke, where I played from a wrong place because a FC was using the same generic coin as mine, and I swore that from that point on I would always use something unique to mark my ball on the green.

    When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

    I travel light. One long and one short tee. Ball mark repair tool (hardly used) and a Bill Murray's Caddy Shack ball mark. I used to carry a German one Deutsch Mark piece as a ball "Mark" but lost it at Falconridge a couple years ago.(anybody seen it?).

    2 short tees, one long tee, pivot tool and one of a number of coins for marking my ball. Most silver dollars and 50 cent pieces of the commemorative variety. The ones are use the most are a Wayne Gretzky commemorative 50 piece, a guitar pick shaped commemorative 50 cent piece and of course my Cameron ball marker

    4-5 tees, and my scotty pivot tool. that's it. I don't like a lot of crap in my pockets. My ball marker is on my cap. I hate fumbling trying to find it in my pocket. Also, scorecard in leather scorecard holder in my back right pocket.
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    Stuff

    Titleist divot tool, long plastic tee, a few short wooden tees. I like the Canadian nickel as a ball marker. I usually have an extra PRO V1 as well. I carry a scorecard with a pencil pierced trough it in the back pocket.

    1 long tee, 1 broken tee, ball mark tool, dime, penny, all in right pocket.

    Though after reading this thread I have a commemorative coin from the 200th birthday of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment that I may start to use as a ball marker.
    Sucking at golf is it's own reward.

    One to put in play and a potential provisonal (or ball to drop). I hate going back to the cart for another ball and it doesn't bother me. Technically I have 2 in pocket only between holes.

    I have the G Clip so I don't carry anything in my pocket. Keep my wallet in the bag during the round, the credit card with the bev cart for my tab, and that's that.

    I'm surprised the stuff in the right pocket doesn't bother you guys on the downswing. I carry one tee, a ball mark and a divot tool. I have about 100 or so coins from around the world and about 20 divot tools from different courses I switch around.

    Oh ok, got it Dan.

    I carry some tees, Scotty Cameron ball mark repair tool in my back right pocket.

    Front right pocket has either a quarter, or a ball marker of some sort. I am not superstitious so I do not care what coin or ball marker I use.

    A couple of tees, the backup ball in case the one I'm about to hit decides to go camping or swimming, and maybe some change from the cart girl..... I have a multi tool clipped on my pocket. I need it to keep track of the shots on the hole as I can't count higher then 6 or 7....

    one short and one long tee, divot tool and a ball. my habs ball marker sits on the lid of my titleist hat (gotta love those magnetic hats). though, if the habs have the season i think they're about to, i may have to change my ball marker for next season.
