Today is National Pencil Day!

| Minigolf pencils from our travels |
We enjoy visiting courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour and it's marvellous when we find one that has a branded pencil to score the game with.

| Pencils and promotional scratchcards from Congo River Golf in Orlando, Florida, USA |
It's a superb bit of minigolf marketing too.

We've seen several minigolf courses switching to virtual scorecards (and scoreboards), and app-based scorecards. Others are using a mixture.
We think, and hope, there's space and a place for all methods of scoring to continue in the game.
Our friend Pat Sheridan from The Putting Penguin minigolf review website (among his many other hats in the game) has contributed quite a few pencils and scorecards to the Crazy Golf Museum that he's picked up on his own minigolf adventures.
One of the most peculiar minigolf pencils we've seen is this one Pat sent a snap of, as it's a real life pencil for a virtual minigolf game!
