Military buttons?

[Jcern]

My neighbor was kind enough to let me hunt in his yard and I found these buttons. I’m hoping someone can help with identifying them. One of these looks like it has gold clubs on it which seems quite odd.

With crossed golf clubs, I'd think the CC stands for "Country Club"

Ria Golf Club maybe?

Taking the easier pieces; The first is a collar disk, WWI (or shortly, as it’s hard to see the detail) compare to the ones here: https://hglanham.tripod.com/metalinsignia/collardisk1.html
The eagle button is known as a Great Seal (of the U.S.) button, and has been used by the U.S. Army since 1903, but I believe yours dates to about the same as the collar disk, based on the finish. From 1910-1923 there was an applied black finish, which some of appears to be remaining.
When posting buttons, it often is important t9 show the back, which can help date them more accurately.

Haha - golf club or country club makes sense. I found them all in the same hole so assumed it was related to the buttons.

Ben, thanks so much for the info!

That might be an older caddy badge.

A friend identified the badge as being associated with the Rock Island Arsenal Golf Club - so there is a military connection it seems. I never knew the Army operated a golf club!

If you tell us where you found these we might figure out the golf badge. County or city at least... Location helps focus the research considerably.
