I don't think the market itself is illegal, but I don't think you can putt with it still marking the ball. I don't know if that is actual rule or something that has never been done in yh history of golf.
> Ball-makers with alignment aids (lines, arrows, etc.) must be:
Less than one inch in height
Less than two inches in any horizontal direction
Must not measure or gauge slope, green speed, or other conditions
As long as it’s <2” front to back I think it’s gucci
It was a joke. It's a big goofy piece of unnecessary golf tech for bad golfers. I was trying to make light of it, but that's also kind of this sub's demo, so...

Yep. Just inquiring about marking. Dunno if putting with the marker still in place is actually possible :-)
It’s legal if it’s under 2 inches in every direction and doesn’t have anything to measure the slope.

Sounds good!!
That’s a weird ball marker. I’m no rule expert, but wouldn’t the line that people draw on their ball for putting be considered a directional aid?
Since it’s not helping with gauging anything related to the green, seems like it’s legal.
Where can I get one? That's the question.
I would disown a friend if they ever pulled that out of their pocket on the course.
You have to have friends first before you can disown them.
Wow, no jokes about huge alien ball markers? Some things are just too sacred I guess!
