Shopping...
I have played golf for over the past 40 years. Several years ago I started collecting ball markers from
the courses I have played. When I'm playing a round of golf I always check the ball markers of the
other players to see where they've played. That often leads to a conversation about the courses
we've played.

One day I got to thinking that a Christian ball marker would be a great way to open up some doors
to talk about my faith. That was the idea for the Jesus is Lord ball marker. Why Jesus is Lord?

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth,
and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
                                                 Philippians 2:10-11 (KJV)

I have designed these golf ball markers for Christians who would like to show their commitment to
the Lord while playing golf. This is an excellent tool to open doors to share your faith as you play
golf. It is also an excellent way to check your attitude during a round of golf when the golf ball isn't
going in the hole as soon as it should. They also make a great gift.
University of Arizona vs. Arizona State University...
Why the college teams? Especially in state rivals? I was looking for a ball marker from the U of A.
I graduated from the University of Arizona in 1983.

I have two sons, the oldest graduated from Arizona State University in May 2007 in the Professional
Golf Management Program.
The youngest graduated from The University of Arizona in May 2007 with a Bachelors in
Mathematics.

I've added a product called the Slider. Check it out if you are a Sun Devil or Wildcat fan. Sorry, I do
not have other colleges available. If you would like another school, you can do a search on the
Internet. If you have trouble finding your school email me and I'll help.
