A printed cap that marks I (heart) BOGEY on a golf ball. The souvenir-ball look, with an honest score.
The classic souvenir-ball layout, an I and a heart over a word, pointed at the score most of us actually make. For the golfer who has made peace with one over par, or the friend who needs reminding. It is the tool's Template mark: I and the heart on top, BOGEY underneath, with the O and the B keeping their middles on thin stencil bridges.
Made with our free golf ball stencil generator, not modelled by hand: we chose Template, typed BOGEY into its word field, kept the heart symbol, chose the Bold & Blocky font and set Size to 28 mm. Everything else is the tool's default, and the STL in the zip is exactly what the tool gives you: a 71 by 48 mm cap for a standard 42.67 mm ball, with a 2.4 mm wall, 0.5 mm of clearance, a skirt that reaches 12 degrees past the middle of the ball so it cups it, and two tabs with 7 mm holes for a rubber band. Like every free download from the tool, it carries a small raised MESHCAST mark on its underside, along one tab.
Seat it on the ball, draw through the openings with a fine permanent marker, lift it off, and the joke is on the ball in under a minute. It makes a cheap, quick gift for a golfer: print the cap, mark a sleeve of balls, hand over both.
Shown as a 3D render of the printed stencil on a golf ball and a second ball with the words drawn through it, not a photo.

Print the file as exported: rim flat on the bed, dome up, with tree supports on (organic in PrusaSlicer).
Peel the supports out of the inside of the dome.
Wipe the ball clean so the ink bites, then seat the cap on top and press the rim down until it cups the ball.
Draw through each opening with short strokes from the edges inwards.
Lift the cap straight up and leave the ink for a minute before you touch it.
