A spiked ball marker connected to a rotating alignment component is provided. The ball marker is designed to prevent rule violations for compromising the golf ball location on the putting surface when marked. The alignment component is adjustable and moves while the connected spiked ball marker is not allowed to move at all. The spikes of the spiked ball marker penetrate the ground to prevent the ball marker from moving as the alignment component is adjusted. The alignment component provides a golfer the option of adjustment by use of a putter in order to gain visual perspective of the putting surface terrain while in the act of adjusting the alignment component for the purpose of enhancing the accuracy of aiming towards a desired trajectory at the golf hole.
