Tees only in front pockets. Ball marker back. Card, pencil and pitchmark repairer I leave in a pocket in my bag and take out as needed.

The only thing that tilts me more than slow play is someone that doesn’t keep an extra ball on their person. Shank/duff/top/5putt all you want but if you want to hit another from the same spot you best damn make sure you have another on you somewhere.

Reminds me of a guy I played with for a while - for a (thankfully brief) period, he refused to have more than one ball on him because he was convinced that if he carried an extra he was subconsciously telling himself that he would need it and therefore was more likely to hit good shots if he only had one...

Obviously he sucked just as bad carrying one ball as he did with two - it just took a lot longer running back and forth to his bag.

this is really stupid because sometimes the tees get caught between the prongs of the divot tool, i can't find a mark when i'm rooting around for one, but for some strange reason i keep doing it.
Are you left-handed? My right pocket is pretty much the same as your left one, except that I have my groove cleaning tool in my left pocket.

Left Front: Extra ball, divot repair tool that includes magnetic ball marker (Torrey US Open), 1 tee. I can wedge the tee in the divot tool too.

Right Front: Nothing

Left Rear: Nothing

Right rear: Scorecard holder in tournaments, otherwise nothing.

i carry a ball marker for me (metal from Tokatee and point the bottom of the arrowhead towards the hole) and a few smaller wood ones from Bandon courses in case i need to temporarily mark someone else's ball until they get to the green.

and i always carry an extra ball in the pocket

Doesn't it bother you to have to reach into your left pocket with a glove on? I can't handle that mess. I keep everything in my front right pocket. Only thing in there is one or two tees, a ball marker, and a ball mark repair tool. I have a magnetic coin as my ball marker and a metal tool so they are always stuck together which is perfect because almost always have to fix a ball mark right before or after marking my ball and it also makes the marker quick and easy to find. Glove goes in back pocket always. All other pockets are empty.

Only time I ever have an extra ball on me is if there is OB on the hole then I will bring an extra one to the tee box. Otherwise why do you need it?

Definitely that and “oh I topped it, let me try again” or “idk if we can find that, I’ll take two”. Clearly we are playing with a different class of golfers.

Main culprit for me on this is my wife who only carries one at a time because she usually wears a skort without pockets. Though she rarely needs another cause she plays close to a single digit and kicks my ass...maybe I’m just bitter.

Man. Some of you carry too much crap. I've got about 4 tees in my right pocket along with a quarter for a ball marker. Nothing in any other pocket. That's what my golf bag or cart is for.

Doesn't it bother you to carry your range finder, metal divot repair tool (I use a tee), your lunch and your scorecard book (I'm not a pro so I've never even seen such a thing) on you? I always wondered how the pros carry that book in their back pockets. That would be so annoying.

Agreed. If I want to hit another one I ask my wife to throw one to me. I don't want to go up there thinking I'm going to need to try again

I'm jealous. I wish my wife played that good. Yeah, I'm not a big fan of these guys that are always hitting another one because the first one sucked. So yeah, if they are going back to the bag to get that "other one" then F them.

Big time no0b here but 2 balls in right front pocket with like 6 tees and I'm good for the round. Got in the habit of marking my balls with a tee which I'm sure is frowned upon but people I play with seem to do it

I wouldn't do anything that would affect the aerodynamic performance of the ball. Heck, I don't even mark it and haven't since I played in college. If I lost a Titleist and find one in the same area then that's gotta be my ball 😅.

Think he means he marks his ball on the green with a tee by sticking it in the ground behind the ball instead of using a coin.

nice topic!

I play as a righty, so left hand golf glove is always on.

so....right hand shorts pocket: extra 2 golf balls, tees/iron groove cleaners, ball marker.

left hand shorts pocket: cloth to be used for w/e

You never hit a ball into the woods or other (non-penalty) area where you might not find it?

Spare balls are kept in my bag. Which is with me at all times except on the green. Don't need ball in the pocket it's no slower going to the bag. I assume it's different for those using carts.

What college is Rickie Fowler representing today?

On another note, Joe Buck must have some dirt on somebody. He's the worst announcer I've ever heard and he's calling the world series, football. Go away Joe.

No. His exemption from winning the US am is contingent on playing as an am and not being eligible for prize money. Ping or Taylormade will back up the brinks truck to his door this evening though.

No but I don't think he has to worry about money. Guaranteed majors in his future.
