Whenever it's cold outside, a turtle neck is a must to keep your body heat in. Generally, I wear a light polo or tee shirt, with a turtle neck on top of that. When it is breezy, I will also wear a sleeveless jacket on top of that. If I wear a regular jacket, I can't swing as freely as too much layer on my arms is not conducive to my swing.

Its all about layers.
When its 40-50* I will just wear a sweatshirt over a t-shirt and slacks. Its plenty to keep me warm.
When its 30-40*, I will wear a beanie (because a lot of heat escapes out the top of your head) and then I will wear a sweatshirt and a long-sleeve shirt under it and then I will wear some kind of cold weather golf gloves.

I am big fan of the Under Armour themal compression fit turtle neck - keeps me very warm with little over top of it. Layers is must as I tee of early and on hour into the round I have to peel a few things off. If it is raining the FJ rain gloves work great!

most of the time in the winter I wear shorts and short sleeve shirt. Once in a while I have to wear pants, a long sleeve shirt and maybe a hoodie. Less often than that, I wears long handles under my pants, two long sleeve shirts, and a rain coat, with a sock hat and some gloves. If it colder than that, I go to a strip club and then it's all about titties and beer. (also a good song.. Google it).

Man, I love Central Texas in the Winter.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

Well said! Similar weather in SoCal, but I layer differently than you except we both agree on the "coldest" level.

We don't get the random rainfall you guys get in TX. I still haven't played a round in the rain, I really want to though!

Layer with a inner mock and sweat shirt, cashmere if possible, outer wear and sometime thermo under wear depending on how cold knit cap, you lose 80% of your heat from your head and finally a handwarmer and hot tea or hot chocolate

Mock, a light sweater or LS polo, and windbreaking shell. Thats about it. It works for me down to freezing temps. I walk even when i do play in the winter, so you keep warm by just doing that. Below 40, ill probably wear some thermal leggings as well.

You forgot to mention the particulars...lol

What do you guys wear in the winter.

What you were in 50-55 degree weather- I wear shorts and a wind shirt.

What you were in 30-50 weather- Jeans and a fleece with a t-shirt underneath. If it gets close to 30 or lower it is usually fleece with long sleeve t-shirt of some kind. If windy a jacket over the fleece.

Loyalty above all else, except honor.

What do you guys wear in the winter.

Depends. Winter here can be 40's, or it can be 70's. We had 15 inches of snow late last week, tomorrow I'm playing and the temperature will be in the mid 70's... so I'll be wearing shorts. Most often slacks or (gasp) jeans in the winter, and my upper wear depends on the sun and wind and temperature. I usually layer so I can adjust as need be.

I go for the 'deer hunting redneck' look when it gets in the 40's and below, namely a ski cap, blue jeans, and a thermal under a cheap collared shirt (my good ones seem to get torn up when I wear a thermal under them, not sure why). As long as you're comfortable and can play well, it doesn't matter how you're dressed in winter - usually when it's cold enough you'll pretty much have the course to yourself anyway.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By StuM ·

      I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
