Q: Would it be a good idea for golfers to carry bio degradable divot anchors so they can anchor their divots down once they have replaced them? 

A: The problem with them is that even if the divots were anchored down the birds will pull the ends up looking for food. If divots are anchored down in the summer months they would die anyway as they do not have enough root to take up what little moisture there is. We then have the scenario of dead, brown divots which will have to be individually picked up. It would not be possible for a sweeper to pick them up.
