Does Bill Belichick play golf? 

He played a couple of years in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am.  And I think he was wearing his exciting grey hoodie.

Hoodies are fashionable among young people. I’m not a fan for golf however. They serve no function. 

I don’t think attire is an issue with attracting people to the sport though, it certainly never crossed my mind before I played golf, expense or worrying about looking useless were far higher concerns

[Vinsk]

I don’t mind them at all. Of course they’d be great to help McCarron and Langer hide their anchoring even better.....

Clothes normally have two primary functions.

1. Keep your warm and protected from the elements

2. Prevent other people from having to see your bits and pieces.

Baring some sort of obscene message or image on an article of clothing, I don't care.

 Clothes have signaled status for more than 2000 years. Has to count as a function

Also, I don't think many of us pick out a new golf shirt without thinking... "Hmmm, I'll look good in this purple and pink one."

Yeah. But he cheats.

I've seen more than a few PGA Tour golfers wear hoodies on their Instagram. They're not playing during a tournament, but probably at a club with a dress code.

Natural progression of golf fashion I suppose. In the 90's it was baggy pants and over-sized sweaters, now its slim fit. Rope brimmed hats have made a comeback. So a hoodie might be the next thing. I don't care for it, to me its not golf. But what do I know? Oh and while we are on it, tuck your shirt in. Sam did it best.

"Tuck your shirt in".  That could be a whole thread.  Or maybe it already is...

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.

Wore one today. Take a suck of that.

As an eighth grade teacher in a school that does not allow hoodies up, which, of course means I am CONSTANTLY telling people to take their hoods off, I have to say that I HATE hoodies.

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.
