I have a red shirt and black slacks reminiscent of TW. However, I do not wear it on the course, as you can see from my handicap. When I see someone wear the TW banner of Red/Black, I expect to see a show of ultimate skill.

I was just eating dinner and looking out of my kitchen, I saw the Red and Black Banner of TW. I ran upstairs to watch him play from 150 yards in. Approach shot was to the right into a hill. He chipped and made a two putt. I didn't see his performance from the start of the hole, but based upon his approach shot - it must have been at least two to get to where he was.

Do you ever wear a red shirt and black pants when you play?

I have. I sometimes wear black or dark gray pants with a red dri-fit Nike sweater I have. I seem to play better when I look good out on the course. It's all in the confidence and mental aspect.

I wore black pants with a red shirt today. While Tiger wears that on Sundays, I didn't know he was the only one allowed to wear it? Either that or I didn't get the memo that you needed a certain handicap in order to wear that color combination.

No one said you did. The guy was posting his opinion.

I have never wore red/black while playing. I don't like red to begin with, but I do think a lot of people would snicker at someone wearing that color combo.

As I think about it, I have. (Not intentionally.)

Nonetheless, I can promise you, for some strange reason, the combo has no magical powers. (I may be negating the effect with my pastel pink shoes.)

My typical golf color palette is white, green, and khaki. I'll also wear blue or black, but I don't think I've ever worn red on the golf course.

You have a typical golf color palette?

I have worn red shirt and black pants on Sunday since 1981. Tiger stole the idea from me.

Now we know the secret.

--- I didn't think it was a rule on the red/black combo and golf handicaps. I just made an observation of Tiger's tradition of wearing that combo. Many of his competitors wear the same combo, too.

I prefer wearing neutral, earthy colors on the golf course just in case I'd want to run into the woods and hide after a really bad shot.

I'm a KC Chiefs fan! So I wear red also. They suck this year but look out in a couple years! We still have red fridays, even when they are losing. I'll wear red as quick as I'll wear any other color on the golf course. I definitely don't think I am Tiger, I've been wearing red to golf in since the late '70s. I've worn black pants with the red but usually wear pants with a brown hue to them. Not that I have a golf pallette My alma mater wears red too, obviously. Gotta love schools with red in their color scheme!

It's an interesting fact, Tiger is the only player to ever wear a red shirt and black pants, and he's the only one that can do it on tour anymore.

Yes, I wear what looks good.
If that appeals to my eyes that day, then I wear it.

I'm not a red kind of guy--especially shirts & especially to golf. As a 6'3"-ish 190-ish black guy who plays golf & just happens to have been a Nike fan since Michael Jordan, I get enough grief with the comparison as it is. It's irritating as hell. And believe me, once I start to play & dribble a couple off the tee, they stop with the "Tiger" comments. --LBB
