As a collector of scorecards since I started the game back on July 13, 1971, I've been somewhat concerned in recent years that such needless expense would be going the way of the dinosaur due to technology and online scoring.
With the pandemic, this seems more likely to happen sooner than I'd feared. I can see much like music no longer needing to be anything but virtual and cloud based, the added potential of passing germs on a surface such as a scorecard may be the tipping point.
Still, as someone who collected a card from every course I've played (1,132 to date), plus have another big box of different style cards from courses I played more than once, and another of courses I never played but still acquired a scorecard, I find it a sad soon to come passing. I find them to be valuable memorable souvenirs that a virtual log could never really sentimentally replace.
