White Belts for Golf

  1. 1. What does wearing a white belt while playing golf say about you?

    • I’m on the cutting edge of the golf fashion world!
      3
    • I swing so fast, the vortex created by my arms pulled all the dye color out of my belt.
      2
    • I only wear white to match the white sox I wear with my golf sandals.
      1
    • I don’t wear a white belt because I’m a slob and it would get covered with ketchup from my hot dog at the turn,
      5
    • Belts hold up my pants. The color doesn’t matter to me.
      11
    • I am taking Tae Kwon Do and I am at the first level.

    • I went to Chicago Public schools and I don’t understand the question.

I apologize in advance since I'm slightly off topic but I just had to ask you fashion gurus - am I better off wearing my pink suspenders than I am with a white belt?

To wear a white belt you must follow the "36" rule: if your waist is larger than 36 or if your age is greater than 36 do not wear a white belt. I read this someplace.

DJ is 36....I’ll let you tell him he’s gotta give his up next year ☺️C4BC9230-2B4A-4225-A143-28CA30EAA7A4.jpeg.e04919c099f6c4c8db54451c1cc9859e.jpeg
 

Not sure I’ve seen him wear it lately though, so maybe he knows what’s up

Hell ya! I mean for all those complainers...which is worse?

Wearing a white belt and pink suspenders, or, getting yours ass kicked by a guy wearing a white belt and pink suspenders.

If you’re going to dress a certain way, you better have the game to back it up.

The way the white belt debate is going, does that mean really good, or really bad?

I’m going with “if both are false, don’t wear a belt.” Not “either.”

    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
    • Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings.
