Hi, I was wondering if women/girls can wear flat billed hats while golfing. What do u guys think? I'm just curious. Thanks for the replies ahead of time.

To the best of my knowledge the Rules do not mention clothing.

What rule do you think may be breached?

Nor am I aware of any rules that are gender specific/unique.....

Flat billed caps look weird to me, I've yet to see anyone make a flat billed cap look good.

@Rulesman I don't know of any rule that could be broken but I was just checking with you guys to make sure because I don't want to be that one person who everybody is staring at.

Style, to each their own.

But, it drives me nuts to see anyone wearing a hat with the bill to the side or backwards at our club.

They show "No" respect for the tradition of the game, and probably knowledge of dress codes.

Wear whatever you want as long as long as you're not violating a dress code at a private course. If a dress code distinguishes between what kinds of hats men and women can wear, gladly take your business elsewhere.

I wasn't sure what a "flat billed hat" was. When I googled it, all it showed has baseball type caps. I don't recommend them since they don't cover your ears. Ears can get really sunburned. If they like the style, then go for it. I don't care for the look myself. Not the most flattering for a woman, IMO.

To me, flat billed caps have that "thug" look which is very unappealing to me. I like my cap bills to be curved. Call me old school.

Sure it is OK. Women have just as much right to look ridiculous as men. :-P

What drives me nuts is all of these players who wear pants that hang down to their ankles.  It shows a profound disrespect for the REAL DRESS CODE of golf, which is wearing plus fours.  And don't even get me started about the bozos who try to get away with playing without a fully buttoned up dress shirt and tie.  They show "No" respect for the tradition of the game, and probably knowledge of dress codes.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Haha. Reminds me of the great Nike commercial last year:

If they wear a flat billed cap, then shouldn't they do the "Ear Tuck " too....?

    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.

    • Cool here's my tweak, "If a player’s ball lies in the general area and there is interference from exposed tree roots or exposed rocks that are in the fairway or 1 club length from the fairway the tree roots and exposed rocks are treated as ground under repair. The player may take free relief under Rule 16.1b.[But relief is not allowed if the tree roots only interfere with the player’s stance.]
    • I would never do the extended warranty on the $50 slow cooker.  I also routinely reject the extended service plans on those toys we buy for the grand-kids.  I do consider them on higher cost items and will be more likely to get one if the product has a lot of "Electronic Tech" that is often the problem longer-term.  I also consider my intended length of ownership & usage.  If my thought is it would get replaced in 2-3 years then why bother but if I hope to use it for 10 years then more likely to get the extension. I did buy out a lease about a year ago.  Just prior to the lease end date the tablet locked up and would not function.  I got it repaired under the initial warranty and would not have bought it out if they had not been able to fix it since IMO once electronic issues start in a car they can be hard to track down & fix.  They did fix it but when I bought out the lease I paid up for the extended warranty the would cover electronic failures because my intent is to keep that car for another 8-10 years and I just do not trust the electronics to last.  Last week the touch screen went black and was unresponsive.  It reset on the 2nd time I restarted the car but that is exactly how the last malfunction started.  I fully expect to have a claim on that on repair under the extended warranty.  I do not recall the exact cost to fix last time since I did not pay it but I think it was @ $700-$800 and I suspect that will be higher next time.
