they survived a mild (only 2-3 storms with 5” or more of snow) new england winter, good reflectivity from a reasonable driving distance, they even stood up to the snowplow driver pushing and driving the snowplow onto one of them when he helped me clear my driveway..it simply popped right back up..with no damage..didn’t bend or break.

It is what it is. A stout fiberglass rod, with a taper on one end, and reflective tape on the other end. Probably impervious to breakage.
I did not use it for a driveway. I needed a rod of this length to create a better version of my cat's favorite toy, which was a cheap plastic tube, with a string and a toy mouse on the end. I used some mason's twine, and a mouse I bought that was pretty durable. It cost maybe a dollar more total than the cheap cat toy which was breaking and falling apart.
Our cats love this toy, and the rod was a lot cheaper than getting a real fishing rod to re-purpose for this amusing task.
You might call it "Cat Fishing"!

Reflective tape makes them easy to see. Tapped lightly into ground with hammer.

Using as golf alignment sticks. Much cheaper than buying the same stick from a golf retailer for 25 bucks

Reflectors
Be careful. The fiberglass
Comes off and gives you splinters very easily. You can't get the splinters out easily because you cannot see them!

Home Depot has great service
I used the driveway markers as alignment sticks for golf. So if that's your plan, they do in fact work for that. Home Depot has great service. I selected whatever the cheap or free shipping was and they were at the store the next day (days ahead of schedule).

Snow Markers for Driveway
Thank you for the 8 snow markers that were used for a job in northern Arizona.
They were excellent, did not shatter, and were placed in the ground about 4 to 6" without any problems
with rocks, etc. the enlarged heads made hammering much easier and safe when struck.
I was worried about bending and breaking but that did not occur. Thanks, Apache Bob

Rod is flexible and easy to use
The rods are easy to use and flexible. It won't break even my car ran over it. Its a nice marking tool when the snow starts.

PVC Bow
I used this item to go inside of a PVC Bow I made and it worked great. It helps the PVC snap back to it's original shape after being bent.

Good product but disappointed in shipping costs when available at a local store
The product works great. It is 5/16" fiberglass rod with a pointed end on one side and a cap on the other.

Golf Alignment Sticks
My golf instructor uses these sticks for aligning your golf stance. Set up one to show where your feet are lined up and another to show where the club head is aiming. Much better deal seeing it does the same job as a 30 dollar product in golf stores.

Perfect for frisbee game
I bought these driveway markers for a frisbee game called sticks which is similar to horseshoes. Each team sets up two sticks about a frisbee's width apart and places solo cups (updside down) on top, and the other team throws frisbees at the sticks in order to send the cups flying. The defending team can try and catch the solo cups to prevent a point scored. It's a fun game and these sticks were perfect for the game. They're flexible enough to send the cups flying but durable enough to withstand getting hit with frisbees repeatedly.
