It’s called a “Divot Repair Tool” for a reason

A divot repair tool is not called a pocket weight. It really is supposed to "Repair" your "Divot" that you made in the green. How come people don't fix their own divots, are people lazy, are people doing it on purpose just to mess the greens up? We always want to give people the benefit of the doubt, but come on, how hard is it too fix your divot.

Different types of divot repair tools

Does the average golfer know what a divot repair tool is ?

Do any of these look familiar ?

We even through you a bone in there, the tee can be used to fix your divot too. These tools are all around you, most golfers have more than one. Some golf courses even give you a free one at the start of the round just to help keep their greens in better condition.

Golfers seem to be getting lazy, more and more courses seem to have chewed up fairways, un-repaired greens, and un-raked sand traps. We are responsible for some things, we the golfer need to fix our divots on the tee box, fairways and greens, and we need to rake the sand after shots.

Do you know how to use a divot repair tool ?

We have to work together and all clean up after our selves. Golf technology may have changed over the years but golf etiquette never will.

How pissed off are you when you hit a great drive right in the middle of the fairway, but when you get up to it, you notice your ball is sitting in a huge divot ? Some people will just move the ball a few inches but what if your more serious or in some sort of tournament ?

All golfers need to fix their divots to help the golfer behind them, it's Golf Karma not just golf etiquette, if you don't fix you divots something bad will happen to you. Hey if it takes a scare tactic, then fine, we just want the divots fixed and sand raked. ;)
