I've got the Avid Overnighter Yard sticks and for years prior (before distance sticks were formally a thing) I always used short Fox Euro banksticks (12") that did the job almost as well.
Upside to the Avid sticks is the 12' distance cord and the 3x adjustable coloured markers as well as the curved top (for easy line retrieval) and the overall length - hate those silly long sticks - completely unnecessary. Downside is it would be better with an augured point for hard ground etc

NGT curved distance sticks..they do the same job and only cost £7/£8!
I have used two pieces of garden cane,chamfered down a bit ,or actual stick,sticks ..
I invested in the NGTs after leaving my bits of speed mop handle somewhere..

I'm cheap, on the rare occasions I use them I just use a pair of spare Solar P1 banksticks, or storm sticks (not storm poles) from my brolly.
Not being funny, but I'm blowed if I'm spending money on something that is not an 'essential'.
I'm lucky in that on most occasions I can walk out my lines to clip them up, and I do prefer to do that.
