I'm sourcing 3"x3" O-flag stickers for a perm course project. A poster in an older AP thread found success getting them made by a local print shop.

I'm checking that route, but in the meantime, could you please suggest a vendor who can provide O-flag stickers that are UV stable and have a permanent adhesive backing? Thanks.

I've just had some printed locally at a small shop

4"x4" rounded corners
Poly Supertac permanent adhesive
Rolls of 500 per roll

I'm in Canada, but the material seems to be widely available and used on outdoor equipment and facilities. I asked for UV stable, which will be partly dependent on the ink used. (Orange printed on white vinyl). I picked them up yesterday, so haven't actually tested them yet.

I printed them at 4"x4" but added small tick marks so they can cut down to a smaller size. I find 3"x3" better for most courses in a smaller area. I then hand letter numbers and codes using a high quality black sign paint.

Thanks!

My local shop quoted me about US$1 per 3x3 sticker, and I have also found online vendors (uprinting, stickermule, stickerbot) at the $0.50-0.75 level.
