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.
      1
    • 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.”

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙

      My Swing (Tomfig)

      By tomfig · Posted

      Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
