Looking at the Cameron divot tool and am wondering if it is worth it. Does it work well? Is it a hastle to get out of the headcover? What's your opinion.

I have several of them and just keep one in my pocket during the round. They work great by the way.

I have 4 different divot tools, the Cameron is by far the easiest to use.

It' very easy to use because of the built in rocker, so you don't have to pillow your fingers underneath the tool while fixing the ball mark, especially during the Summer.
One bad thing, if you lose it on the golf course, no one will turn it in to the pro shop. I lost 2 over the years, never saw them again.

I prefer not to leave them in the headcover because they can fall out easily.

If you put them in the head cover the wrong way they will fall out! the end with the holes needs to be facing up when the putter grip is facing down! Great tool by the way I have all the colors plus a polished one !

They work great and agree with all that recommend against storing them on the headcover.

i hope you're fixing pitch marks correctly by "folding in" instead of "lifting up" (killing the roots and leaving nasty dead spots on the green).

i keep a black one in my pocket during rounds and agree that they shouldn't be kept in the headcover out on the course. they can also put holes in the headcover.

Sorry to be so picky, but you'll have a hell of a time trying to fix "divots" with the Cameron "Pivot" tool made for repairing ball marks.

I have one. They work much nicer than the putters for me.

THX, I think I know the correct way to repair a ball mark.
If you don not have a finger underneath the tool, how do you hold your tool? Never seen anyone one hold a SC ball mark reapir tool like a shovel.

I have a few, but never use them 'cause they are too clunky in my pocket. I actually prefer a thinner, "and cheaper" tool as well. Besides, anything in your pocket is eventually going to get lost during a round. Makes me think about all the cool ball markers that I have lost over the years!

Same here. Clunky, and tees kept in the same pocket get stuck in the holes.

I have one of the Cameron tools with a clip on it. They work very well and are unobtrusive in the pocket.

Since you're not supposed to pull up on the center of the divot, it sounds like a horrible design.

Put the tool on the edge of the ball mark, and push IN towards the center, not down and away from it.

I like the cameron divot tool it gives me that milled feel I am looking for when repairing a pitch mark.

I like the stainless ones....

I have several myself...the only divot tool I ever use!
