Customizable golf ball stamp, monogram or logo — PAR

The stamp is created with your design: you must indicate what you would like to see appear. Enter your initials or your monogram when ordering, in the designated field or by message to customer service after ordering. For a logo, send a file that is as sharp as possible, ideally black on a white background. If you don't have a visual, you can also choose one of the catalog designs: golf cross, flags, paw, decorative monograms. We recommend simple designs with thick lines, as the printing surface is small and the ball is curved: a motif that is too detailed will lose legibility.

Yes, it is actually recommended. The Rules of Golf invite each player to carry an identification mark on their ball, to recognize it unambiguously. Playing another player's ball leads to a penalty, and it is common for two partners to use the same brand and number. A monogram or logo applied with a stamp constitutes a clear personal mark. The marking has no impact on the ball's conformity as long as it is merely a surface application of ink. In competition, it is customary to announce to your marker the ball you are playing and your identification mark before the start.

The Stamp only presentation includes the personalized stamp with its protective cap: this is the ideal version if you are buying it for yourself. The With metal case and ink presentation adds a lidded metal case, with a foam insert that holds the stamp, as well as a refill ink bottle to extend its use over time. This is the version we recommend for gifting: it presents immediately as a polished gift, and the bottle allows the recipient to refill their stamp without looking for compatible ink. In both cases, the stamp itself and its customization are identical.

The golf ball is both curved and dimpled, which requires a motion slightly different from stamping on paper. Hold the ball firmly between your thumb and index finger, place the stamp perpendicular, then press firmly while accompanying with a slight rocking motion from one side to the other: the motif thus follows the curve. Avoid sliding the stamp, which would create smudges. Work on a clean, dry ball, and let dry for a few moments before storing. The first few attempts will help you find the right pressure; after that, marking becomes a process of a few seconds.

When the impression becomes faint or uneven, it is time to refill. The With metal case and ink presentation includes a refill bottle intended for this purpose. Apply a few drops of ink to the impression, without excess, then let it penetrate for a few minutes before testing on a sheet of paper or an old ball. It is better to refill in several small amounts than in one large quantity, which would cause smudges. Work on a protected surface, as the ink stains. Then keep the stamp cap closed to prevent it from drying out. The color of the provided ink is not specified by the manufacturer.

A well-dried mark generally lasts for the duration of a game, but its longevity depends on many factors: the type of ball coating, repeated strikes, trips into sand or water, or cleaning in a ball washer. The manufacturer does not provide specific resistance characteristics for the ink. For optimal results, apply the stamp to a clean, dry ball and let the marking dry before playing. Like many golfers, you can re-stamp a worn ball before the next tee-off: this is exactly the advantage of having a compact tool in your bag pocket.
