White Belts for Golf  

22 members have voted

  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!
      2
    • 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.
      10
    • I am taking Tae Kwon Do and I am at the first level.
      1
    • I went to Chicago Public schools and I don’t understand the question.

After seeing Sandy Lyle wear suspenders at the Masters, I feel that gives everybody a free pass to wear any color belt they want.

It would be so cool if Sandy wore white suspenders!

If you have won the Masters and are old enough to collect social security, you get a pass.

Everybody else, not so much…

I am not a psychologist but I have encountered enough, on television and in print, to offer an opinion on the subject.  Wearing a white belt can indicate several things...or not.  It really depends on the circumstances surrounding the individual.  

1)  It could be a part of a uniform.  The guy cops on television shows based in the tropics often wear white belts and might, without really thinking about it, wear the same belts when they hit the links.

2)  The white belt could be a gift.  As such...one might feel obligated to wear it once in a while.

3)  One may have grown up when wearing white belts was normal (along with white shoes) and thus think nothing of it.

4)  It may be one of the few belts one owns.  I own two...one tan and one red.  If I owned a white belt I would probably wear it from time to time.

5)  Or it could be a twisted cry for help.  Although it would be more efficient to simply ask for help...we do not always think clearly when distressed.

6)  Lastly...it is possible that some people like white belts.  There is, after all, no accounting for taste.

White belts should have died with apple hats, plaid pants and the rest of those hideous 70's fashions. (But keep the ladies hip huggers and halter tops)

And when you win a hole slip that thing out of your belt loops and snap it at the putt you just made... that'll really get into your opponent's head.

I wear a white belt if I am wearing white shoes occasionally. I tend to match shoes and belts. Most of the time my shirt isn't tucked in so no one would see it anyway. I don't really care what people think about it but@Piz
I see a lot worse clothes worn on a regular basis on the golf course. Guys wearing jeans, corduroy pants, golf sweat shirts from 1981 and pleated pants! Pleated pants should be banned and burned in every capacity. People make a big deal about a white belt and there's million worse atrocities on the golf course.

Hey, I wear corduroy pants in very cold weather!  Though never wear them in the rain... they can gain up to 30 pounds!  And don't worry about the white belts... they'll be trending back in in 20 years.  And I'll be able to wear my double-breasted suit again, too.

Don't worry, I'll feel ashamed for you.😁 Well I just let you know corduroy is not okay. You're welcome 👍

      20 year break!  ... Let me guess, you got married? ...  You had kids? ... Or had a career change? ... Maybe did a little time in the pokey? 🤪 Anyway, welcome back to the game and welcome to the forum.

      Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!! Don't go away. Take a step back for a second. Listen, I know quite a few of the folks on this forum personally and they are all really good people, who love discussing golf. It seems you've become very upset because the title of your thread was changed. Think of it this way, when searching for this thread the rest of us need a way to recognize it. The moderator who changed it just tried to make it easier for the rest of us to find your thread.  Over the years I've had many thread titles changed. I've started other threads which have been merged with similar threads as well. This is a huge form. It's been around for 20 years. The moderators are just trying to keep thing tidy to help us all out.  Give us a chance. I think you'll find this really is a great place for golf talk. I'd suggest "The Numbers Thread", "The would you rather" thread, and the "General COVID-19" thread. Go in there and poke around. There's good stuff in there.  Remember a forum is a collection of personalities just like any forum that gets together in "real life". Some folks are better communicators than others. Some folks are wittier than others. (I'm looking at you @Double Mocha Man. I promise you if you hang around here you'll find stuff that will help your son's game. You'll find stuff that will challenge what you thought about some situations. You'll likely even make some friends. Besides if you go, who's going to teach me new words? I had to look up pedantic.... I had no idea what that meant. I was pretty sure it wasn't positive. But I went to Chicago Public Schools so my vocabulary isn't the strongest.

      I saw him hit his last home run in Milwaukee in 1976.  I had just graduated high school. A great talent.  RIP.

      My Swing (mvmac)

      By mvmac ·

      Sticking with the same stuff, left leg slider feel and maintaining the right ankle dorsiflexion. Hitting it well, taken a lot of the left miss out of play, misses recently have been pushes. Went to PING last week to get fit for the new woods, some changes from my last trip which I think is reflective of the swing trending in the right direction. Don't need to tweak the loft lower with the driver anymore and they recommend I hard-step my iron shafts. I like how stable the right foot is on the backswing and how the left foot is rolling to the outstep much less with the face-on.
