Hi guys, I'm a fan of Imperial visors and recently got a few made with The Sand Trap logo.  I wanted to start this thread to see how many would be interested in a TST hat.  Gotten some interest so far just want to see if it makes sense to put in an order.  Price would be in the $15-20 range, basically covering my cost and shipping.  Post in this thread if you're interested.

Here is a pic of the visors, a few are available, can also post in this thread if you want one, as of right now, only 3 are left.

Going to be ordering two styles, The Sandman and The Prodigy (fitted).  If you want a fitted hat, please let me know what size, options are below.

I like either of those first two. The third one is fitted, which I can only assume would make sizing much more annoying. Plus (and I can't be the only one like this), I always seem to be in-between sizes and I wouldn't want to worry about buyer's remorse ordering one without trying it on. The first two are velcro, which is my favorite of the non-fitted enclosures. I think I would lean towards the first one, "Ellipse", though the only thing that gives me pause is that the eyelets are navy, and don't really fit in with the TST colors (plus, the second one is called "The Sandman"). I think "Ellipse" is my favorite.

I definitely get what you are saying about the worry of getting a fitted hat via an online order.  It is unfortunate that is the case because I prefer fitted hats and like the way they feel/look.

Of the choices available, I like the second one (Sandman)... name is good, I like that the eyelets are white and that it is structured. Too bad the fitted isn't an option... while I understand that there are issues with fitted, I like them best... Oh well. I'll probably get a couple of these as I tend to go through hats in the summer.

I don't really care which style was chosen, but if I had to choose I guess I'd vote for sandman because of the aforementioned non-contrasting eyelets.  Either way, I would order one or two.  I'm assuming that you are only going to order them in white?

I could never buy a visor, I think that's before my generation :)

I like the first hat you showed. It would look nice with TST logo on it.

Driver: 10.5* callaway Razr Hawk Tour - 350 yards(usually into the wind, it can be windy here. at least 400 with a little wind behind me)

Hybrids: 2 and 3 callaway Hybrid razr tour (312 and 287 respectively)

Irons: 3i-10i callaway forged standard length(278, 263, 250, 235, 221, 213, 201, 190)

Wedges: callaway jaws cc 52* 12 approach, 56* 16 sand, 60* 13 lob (0-185)

Odyssey Black tour #9 putter(5 ft, i'm always at least within 5 feet on my approach shot)

I wonder who on this forum is a PGA tour pro, disguised as a normal player..

I'm too bald for visors.

Would take two hats though.

Unfortunately, I shave my head clean with a Gillette Fusion and have that "Mr. Clean" look. A visor wouldn't work for me, but I do wear fitted hats. If you do decide to give a fitted option, I would gladly take two of each (L/XL) in white and black!

Bald spot dictates no visor for me.  I like structured hats the most, but would get an unstructured one.

Thanks guys, yes I'll go ahead order some hats.  Probably go with The Sandman style in white.  I think white works best for The Sand Trap logo.  When you order these hats you have to order them in bulk so I'm not sure what the minimum amount they would need for the fitted option, but I'll look into it.

    • Glad you have the more important problem listed first 🤣
    • Gotcha. Still surprised those were that slow too, those are usually some of the quicker/nicer maintained greens of the public courses I play.
    • I go every year for Thanksgiving, this year I'll be arriving on 11/15 with 3 buddies.  Conditions have always been pretty good, greens are always near-perfect.  The only downside is that some courses will have overseeded, and they generally keep the fairways pretty wet while the rye gets started.  
    • before my home course put millions into maintenance, we had a local rule used by the league that you could improve your lie. The course has dry spots of hard clay, no grass, unfilled divots in the fairway. Since the bunkers filled with rocks and other stuff and never raked, we were allowed to lift and place. The idea was going head to head in matches I want my opponent to have the best lie and shot opportunity. I dont want to win a match because my opponents fairway shot is buried in a divot. Now that the course is well maintained we dont have to rely on that rule as much. 
    • "Golf is often called a gentleman's game because of its emphasis on etiquette, sportsmanship, and respect for fellow players and the course. Golfers are expected to adhere to a code of conduct that includes honesty, integrity, and consideration for others on the course." it amazes me for the right number, how quickly people will forget human rights violations, compromise their integrity and virtues all in the name of "growing the sport" (which we know not to be true)
