Meh, who cares? Seen plenty of guys wearing sports hoodies on the links in the fall or winter. Ive rocked my college hoodie out there a few times.  Whatever is warm and comfy. Or clean.

No, but you can get a great golf lesson.

I read a golf fashion article a few years ago and it said if your age or waistline is over 40 then don't wear a white belt. 

33 here, so I'm still good.

Nothing wrong with a white belt. I wore grey pants, a grey and white striped shirt, and a white hat yesterday. Socks were white, shoes grey.

Very clean look.

I think it’s fine to wear a hoodie. I don’t care what people wear on the golf course.

I hate hoods, something about the fact they limit my peripheral vision. I have a few hoodies but you'll never catch me with the hood up. As far as how they look, they can be fine for the golf course as long as they look sharp and fit right.

As many of you may or may not remember from a previous dress code thread. I'm actually the president of the anti-white-belt-society. So, go ahead and wear a hoodie. But if you are wearing a white belt you'd better be in the navy, or selling ice cream.

Have you ever had someone in a white belt hit it 50 yards by you and beat you by 10 shots?   Well we should get together and let that happen. 😜

I like my white belt, although I forced myself to put it away until I recently took 35 pounds off my waistline.

Touche'

It's a date. 

After you win by 10 strokes you can show me around the battleship you've been stationed on, and/or sell me a double scoop of chocolate mint in a waffle cone. 

Unless of course you happen to be a female pop star... In which case my wife probably won't let me hang around with you.

The hoodie worked for this dude. Although, I'm not sure the courses I've played would want him... not just because of dress code violations.

😂 Are those cargo shorts in your avatar? Maybe we could go hiking after the round Ranger Rick!

That guy was my caddie at Bandon Dunes!  Seriously.  Somewhere I have his business card... it says "Unabomber".  He was a nice guy but I'm surprised Kemper Sports let him caddie...

Oh my gosh, I haven't laughed like that in a long time!!!!  

Yes, those are cargo shorts …. If you think you're the first person to make fun of me wearing cargo shorts, you are sorely mistaken. 

I don't have to come to this forum and take this abuse you know... I can go almost anywhere and take this abuse. 

…. Unless you were serious... in which case I do know a couple of really nice hiking trails and they could be great fun after the round... you know, while I'm enjoying my ice cream cone.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
