Are golfers superstitious? Most are, although few will admit it. Take Chi Chi Rodriguez, for example. He said he marks his birdie putts with a quarter, but switches to a buffalo nickel for pars and eagles. If the quarter isn't working, Chi Chi has been known to change to a gold piece for birdies. Either way , he always places it with heads showing, not tails. One other thing: Chi Chi won't ever use a ball with a higher number than 4.
