Ball Mark Tool, Help Needed...

    Hello,

    I've been on a quest lately to purchase some ball mark tools for the guys on the crew, but there is a very specific style that I'm going after. When I did an internship in the summer of 2005, I was given one and have used it ever since. A local course used to sell them in their clubhouse for 50 cents apiece, but when I stopped in last week they no longer carried them. I've scoured the internet trying to find someplace that sells them, but to no avail.

    I will attempt to upload a picture I found from a golf-themed message board. The one I'm seeking would be the third and fourth ones from the right in the attached picture. On another note, how awesome is it that someone actually took to putting that picture together AND submitting it to a discussion on a message board? Must've been some superintendents in disguise.... ;)

    Thanks for your help!

    I use the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th from the left - never any issue. I heard once, the golf tee actually was better because you couldn't tear the grass out of the green with one point as opposed to two twisting tines.

    I'd be embarrassed if that was a superintendent who posted that in a public forum with the spelling...just sayin'...

    Amazing coincidence...I was reviewing resumes today for a job vacancy and came across one that started with please except my application for this position. Since he asked politely I did except it and he went to the not today pile.
