I came across the Starter Coin on Facebook and thought it was worth looking into. I'm a bit of a sucker for innovative ideas and the Starter Coin is exactly that.

What Does it Do?

When you're on the first tee with your foursome (or prior to the first tee) and need to decide who is teeing off first, you have a few options. The most common is probably flipping a tee a few times and whoever it lands on will tee off in that order. Another way is to toss all four golf balls blindly over your shoulder and the golf balls furthest away, tee off first. This is also a good way to determine teams. 

The Starter Coin simplifies the process. The Coin is labeled with four markings: "Honors, 2nd, 3rd, Last". Simply have your foursome gather around, flip the coin and your order to tee off is set. It's that easy and much quicker than the other options.

 Comes With a Ball Marker

As you can see from the picture above, the center of the Starter Coin is a ball marker which has a clever phrase on it. I went with the ever famous line "Your Honor, Your Honor" from the movie Caddyshack. They have seven different phrases for you to choose from. You can see all of them on the Starter Coin Facebook Store

Overall

If you're looking for something to change your golf swing or help you with your chipping, you have come to the wrong place. The Starter Coin is a fun idea to help make the selection process of who tee's off first as easy as flipping a coin.
