My father, John Bailey, a native of Sebring Florida and the founder of Bailey Enterprise now known as ColorFlex Inc. invented our patented flexible yardage/distance markers in1990 to help speed up play and assist golfers who were searching for sprinkler heads and fairway template markers.
My father retired as a Civil Engineer working for the Corp of Army Engineer and then the United States Air Force. When he retired from Civil Service in 1972 he became an avid golfer and became very frustrated searching for yardage markers in the golf course. He knew there had to be a better way.
Being the engineer that he was and a great problem solver he came up with the idea of a flexible marker that would be maintenance and player friendly. After several years and many sample markers our star shaped marker was born.
Over the years we have made some improvements such as the UV protector added to the material to keep the colors from fading. We have added two additional colors (green and orange) to support First Tee and play it forward.
It became a business my husband Charlie and I took over about ten years later as my father was then 86. Charlie and I are proud to now own Color-Flex Inc. and keep my father's dream alive. We love our flexible golf distance markers and enjoy sharing them with golf courses all over the world.

J. Davis Marking, LLC was founded in 1989 by Jan Davis. She had the idea of engraving yardage numbers on the top of irrigation head caps to provide the distance information for golfers to help speed up play. She wanted golf courses to have PERMANENT yardage marking instead of the temporary tags that got mowed off or broken off. Her idea took off and she invested in molds for all Toro and Rain Bird Irrigation caps.
In 2000, her son Michael and his wife Anne joined her in the business. We now supply permanent yardage marking to golf courses in over 40 countries. We also added Hunter Irrigation caps and we furnish driving range markers and fairway markers in addition to irrigation head marking.
In 2014, Alan & Alicia Pitcher took over the day-to-day operations and are located in Kansas. Mike and Anne are still involved with the business but are acting in promotional and advisory roles. We pride ourselves on second-to-none customer service and the finest products in the industry. Give us a call or email us today. We look forward to serving you.
From a Vision and 5 Products to Hundreds of products spanning 3 Industries and Worldwide Distribution.
In 1987, our founders had a vision of a highly flexible, system of products to mark Golf Course boundaries and hazards. The system would be totally modular. Components could be mixed and matched, a veritable"erector set" for the Golf Course Superintendent.
Markers, Inc. Golf Course Equipment
The system would consist of an in ground component to permanently mark locations, a color coded upright (post) and a variety of cap configurations to perform specific tasks. From that initial vision, dozens of product adaptations plus material changes and manufacturing technologies enabled Markers, Inc. to grow from a 5 product company to an organization that now boasts hundreds of different items with products marketed worldwide. These products are marketed under the brand name of MarkSmart™. We have also become the proud owner of many U.S. Patents for our Golf Products.
Athletic Field Marking Systems
Later, with second generation leadership in place, the company diversified into the Athletic marketplace. Many of the product concepts developed for Golf, with material modifications, led to an innovative method of marking athletic fields. Our MarkSmart™ Lining Kits enabled personnel to safely and permanently mark Football, Soccer, Baseball and dozens of other athletic fields requiring lines, in about 1/3 the time previously required. Natural extensions to our Lining Kits included Marking Paint, Stencils and a broad range of Game Day Markers for dozens of sports. Recent additions to the product line include: Temporary Outfield & Event Fencing for indoor or outdoor applications, labor-saving recycled rubber products for Baseball/Softball fields and many more.
Garden and Yard Products
Still another market opportunity was realized when some of our products found their way to the company owner's yard as protective devices to prevent damage to Flower beds, a highly visible Driveway Marker, an innovative and inexpensive American Flag Pole and a unique method to protect vegetable and floral gardens from critters. These developments led to our Garden and Yard Product Line,.
In less than 28 years, Markers, Inc. has grown from "a Vision" with a limited product line, to a multimillion dollar organization. As the company evolved the marketing strategy developed from trade show and minimal space advertising support, to multifaceted marketing programs selling direct to consumers, through distributors, catalog marketers, and now via the Internet.
