Golf ball marking template for Rapsodo RPT MLM2PRO.
Includes Tag Marker Pen that reads effectively on the Rapsodo Launch Monitor!
This item is a template that can be used to create replicas of Rapsodo RPT golf balls.
It is the best way to create your own RPT like golf balls that work on the MLM2PRO launch monitor. Sticker dots or decals will tend to flake off and might only last a few shots. If you mark the dots with the included marker, you will have good adhesion and many shots without problems. You can then mark as many golf balls as you want.
Our template has an equator that is offset from the center of the ball so that it doesn’t bisect any of the dots. The pattern perfectly matches the RPT ball using this feature. Don’t buy cheaper inferior templates where the dots are split in half.
You will see other products on EBay that are made in China and a complete knockoff of our product. Don’t fall for that junk. They even include a sharpie pen that is likely a knockoff as well. Frankly, they even stole all the writing from my text and even a snip of my YouTube video. The permanent marker pen markings might work on some shots but they are not nearly as reliable as the included marker.
A video of the marking method can be seen here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kzxLyDRH-4
The Callaway RPT balls are sold for $69 per dozen, so this template not only allows you to mark any type of ball, but it does it at a fraction of the cost. You can even take your old shag balls, mark them, and hit them away at the outdoor range.
Important… Please read all of the notes below.
This eBay item only includes:
- One golf ball marking template
- One IM-31 Ear Tag Marker -
(Caution: Ear Tag Markers are highly toxic and must only be used in well ventilated areas to avoid exposure. Do not use around children or animals.)
Other items needed but not included with this item:
- Golf balls
- Note: Black permanent markers are not reflective enough to be picked up by the camera and will not produce reliable results. I'm told that black oil paint markers do work similar to the Paint marker.
- White fast drying nail polish or a White Met-al Paint Marker - this can be used to cover over markings you don't want visible, but I'm told that others have omitted this step with no adverse results.
The template is easy to use…
1. Position the ball in the template (brand name above the “V”).
2. Use the paint marker to create dots using the template as a guide.
3. Allow to dry and remove from template.
4. Use white nail polish or a white paint marker to cover all other golf ball logo markings - optional.
Some other notes:
- Some users have contacted me with questions about durability and I’ve tested with several different markers. The “tag marker” shown is by far the best marker for durability. I performed a test on the ball shown in the pictures and after 120 full 7 iron shots into a net there is minimal wear to the paint markings. The monitor still reads spin the same as the first shot.
- In contrast, I’ve heard that the sticker or dot decal method is inferior due to difficulty transferring the dots and the decals flaking off on normal impact. You wouldn’t want to have to align the ball on every shot to try to avoid impacting the dots. Furthermore, our product allows marking an unlimited number of balls instead of just a few.
- Performance results depend on many factors including lighting, camera position, ball type, logos, shot type, and launch angle. Lighting is important and the paint marker will produce good contrast and reliable results. As the paint wears away, you can always touch up markings.
- If you are hitting the golf balls into an indoor screen, paint and or nail polish markings may stain or permanently mark the screen material. For that reason, the marked balls should not be used on projector screens or similar surfaces.
- clear Polyurethane Spray is not necessary. Not sure if that will protect the balls from marking projector screens.
- Wedge shots tend to remove paint marks more aggressively than lower lofted clubs.
