Magnetic Ball Markers on your hat
 
Anybody ever wonder if it makes sense to have a magnetic field two inches from your brain for up to eight hours (throwing in the 19th hole) multiple times a week? Albiet, I assume, a small magnetic field but still something.

ricthemic 08-18-2010 07:59 AM

Also regarding the 19th hole. I realize this maybe more harmful than the magnet but I'd rather give up the magnet

dgammon6 08-18-2010 08:04 AM

Too late for me to worry about it.

I have always wondered why the PGA pros do not use the magnetic ball marker while the LPGA pros use them all of the time.

You're just kidding

No

I would think that talking on a cell phone would cause more damage than the little magnetic ball marker magnet.

So rich, nothing better going on in the world to think about.

One day while standing on a green, I found a half dollar lying on the ground. I picked it up and put it in my pocket. When another golfer who had already marked his ball on the green walked over to the area his ball was and asked "Where my marker?" Oh well!!!!!

Take it out of your back pocket and clip it to your hat.

Thanks. Now we know where you were coming from.

You should have put this on your original post so we knew what you were talking about.

Makes perfect sense.....

My spouse's response, snort, snort
 
:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl: use to keep magnetic marker in left pocket, kept pulling putts to left, kept in right pocket and pulled putts to right, now keeps in middle of hat and has yeast infection, this is why talk host kicked spouse out of TOTV.....:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

I thought about the magnetic field and the damage it might do, so I began wearing very fashionable aluminum foil hat to counteract the rays. My wife says it isn't working.

It was an interesting article ricthemic. Thanks for posting. I've talked to several therapist who use this type of therapy for an array of ailments. When you think about chiropractic medicine and the origins; not much different.

The only problem I have is that I always want to face north.

Try removing your hat at the 19th hole!:a040::a040::a040:

l2ridehd 08-23-2010 05:01 AM

Now I know why I miss more putts on the North side of the hole.

Cedwards38 05-08-2014 04:39 PM

Never thought about it.
