These items are small, often circular, objects used on the golf course to indicate the position of a golfer’s ball on the green. They prevent interference with other players’ putting lines. Typically, a golfer places it behind their ball, picks up the ball, and then replaces the ball in front of it when it’s their turn to putt. Some examples incorporate characters or imagery from the animated television series, adding a unique, often humorous, element to the game.
The use of these themed items allows individuals to express their personal interests on the golf course, fostering a sense of individuality and lightheartedness during play. The incorporation of pop culture references provides a conversation starter and enhances the social aspect of the game. Historically, golfers have used various small objects as these indicators; incorporating modern cultural elements is a recent trend driven by personalization and self-expression.
