In the game of golf it is typical for a player to mark the position of his golf ball on the green so that he may pick it up and clean it and also remove it from the path of other golfers. There are a variety of types, sizes and designs of both markers and holders for those markers. Many players simply use a coin or similar object carried in a pocket so they can retrieve it to mark the location of the ball.
Various devices such as clips that attach to belts, visors or other apparel also provide a location for holding the ball marker so that they can be easily utilized and then replaced.
My invention combines the utility of holding a ball marker while providing quick access and a bracelet that can be fashionable, monogrammed or styled in any way desired. Additionally, the molding process allows for a rapid easy method for producing this product efficiently.
The bracelet is molded with a magnet inserted in the mold and an indent to accommodate the ball marker so that the finished product allows the bracelet to be worn and a marker attached to the magnetic area of the bracelet. Due to the molding process, the bracelet can be any color or design.
With the popularity of bracelets in all forms being worn, the golf marker bracelet can be functional as well as stylish. The molding process allows a variety of colors and designs to be incorporated in the bracelet.
The Bracelet can be cast in a single mold with a fixed diameter that slips over the hand and onto the wrist or of a stretchable compound such as silicon that can expand to slip over the hand onto the wrist and be loose or tight on the wrist as desired.
The Bracelet can also be cast as a flat piece with the indent for the ball marker and embedded magnet incorporated in the mold. The ends of the bracelet can then be cut to the appropriate length and joined by gluing the ends together, or a variety of other fastening methods such as buckle or Velcro can be attached and used to form a band around the wrist. The bracelet may be cast in all sizes and shapes to be very thin or wide as the wearer desires.
