Default Customized my 11' tails before teeing off at noon

I woke up early this morning to clean my baby and noticed I had some left over film. I took on the tedious task of stenciling my tails, laid the film and made it in time for golf. It was such a beautiful day.

Let me know what you guys think...







The film is a lot lighter than it appears in the pic.
