From shamrocks to flames to ladybugs, golfers now have a fun, easy and innovative new way to mark their golf balls as Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith, Nevada Bob's, Roger Dunn and other retailers are now stocking Golfdotz..

Golfdotz are durable golf ball tattoos that are easily applied to golf balls, offering golfers a smart and stylish alternative to messy markers and pens. Golfdotz are the creation of entrepreneur David Poole. The suggested retail price is $5.99 per two-dozen Golfdotz.

"Golfdotz are designed to be both fun and practical," Poole said. "Golfers need to mark their golf balls in order to easily identify them on the course, but until now their options have been limited to marking pens and clumsy templates. Unlike pens, Golfdotz make no mess, and they also allow the golfer to make a personal yet professional looking statement to suit their style."

Golfdotz are very easy to apply. The user simply cuts one out from the sheet, removes the backing paper and presses the design firmly onto any golf ball for about 10 seconds. Once transferred, the design bonds cleanly with the ball's surface and has zero profile. Designs can withstand a serious beating from woods and irons, and Poole says that "most people will lose their ball before they lose their Golfdotz."

Golfdotz are proudly made in the U.S.A. and are the only product of their kind. Their remarkable durability is rooted in a proprietary technology. Ultimately, Golfdotz offer multiple features and benefits, as they:

• Allow golfers to easily identify their golf balls within the playing environment, or when searching for them in a hazard.

• May be used as alignment aid when putting (one design features alignment arrows specifically for this purpose), and can also be an indicator of true or untrue roll while the ball is in motion on the green.

• Keep golfers loose and confident by allowing them to have fun with designs that reflect their personal style.

• Zero-profile design does not impact the flight or performance of golf balls.

Poole said that he can also take orders from companies and organizations that want custom-designed Golfdotz.

"Individual style is becoming a big part of golf, from clothing to belt buckles to headcovers," Poole said. "You see it on the professional tours as well as at your local golf course. With Golfdotz, golfers now have an affordable way to bring their individual style to the most important component of the game - the golf ball."
