A golf utility apparatus includes a ball alignment tool having alignment marks on the upper surface with an arrow, and concave spherical sections at the corners, conforming to the curvature of a golf ball. To align a putt, a golfer places the golf utility device on the green behind a ball that has been circumscribed with an annular ring, removes the ball, calculates the line of play, and aligns the arrow therewith. The ball is then returned to the green with the annular ring aligned by the arrow on the alignment tool. A golfer subsequently aligns his putt using the alignment of the annular ring. The apparatus further comprises a ball marker, held in place by a magnet inserted through a bore hole in the alignment shaft. The magnet is thereby disposed beneath the surface of the upper baseplate to which the ball marker is secured when not in use.
