What is a " newsboy hat"?

many types of fabric but this style

They will beat their swords into golf clubs and their spears into putters. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Old Tom Morris 2:4

i could be a cowboy then...ride on!

don't know if you're saying this to be a cowboy so folks know you're a bonafide hetero but cowboy hats have become quite popular in gay culture since "brokerback mountain" and so there is still a big presumption of gayness with the wearing of cowboy attire. what i do when i wear my cowboy hat so folks don't think i'm gay is that i spill some food like tomato sauce on the front of my shirt or nick myself while shaving

Probably so.

In all fairness I have seen people wear t-shirts under suits, blazers, sport coats, and otherwise. I have also seen people wear coats with jeans... which looks like

in my opinion... but what can I do. I do agree that a "mock" has a collar though.
Most clubs have relaxed the policy to include mock turtlenecks, which in my opinion is probably due to Tiger wearing them so often

indeed... Montreal is weird and most places allow for such attire. Interesting post though.

tiger wears some pretty boring attire

I completely agree... life is boring on the PGA as far as fashion goes... the bright colors worn by Sergio, Poulter, and others just doesn't do it for me either. I want to see some nice throwback attire. Payne Stewart was damn cool in those knickers, and plaid is solid... well not solid... but definately nifty. I own a straw hat just for the record... and I love it on those super sunny days when the sun is just beating on you.

My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

Id like to see Rupert Bear trousers and hard collars come back in to fashion. Alternatively, plus fours for real style. Perhaps we should ban all Nike apparel from golf courses in an attempt to curb homogenisation.

So you never wear college or Pro sports hats??

No, I wear baseball caps. I wear a mets cap to a baseball game, or my high school's golf team cap sometimes when I play, or a Brooklyn Cyclones cap I also own.

My problem(not really a problem, more like a 'pet peeve' ) is with people who voluntarily fork over cash to wear a hat with a golf equipment logo one it(ie big nike swoosh, Callaway logo, Taylormade logo, titleist logo, etc). Even worse is when they buy them especially to match thier clubs. You're playing right into their hands. You would never wear a cap like this unless your favorite pro(who is paid to wear it) wore one.
thank you

absolutely. I understand the pros wearing the logos, but at least you know, wear clothes that fit. ie polo shirts sleeves should not reach past the elbow, shouldn't be swimming in your slacks, etc. Conversly, I am also not a fan of Sergio's monochrome gold outfits with the tight pants either(I hope he isn't planning to have kids). I also don't like big logos on my shirts(way to many people are doing this. Showing thier wealth with a patch on thier breast).

    • Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry
    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.   
    • Day 288 6-17 Low point control without ball. hit quite a few swing where i was wanting the club to hit the ground.  Added a ball with towel behind it, just to see where im at. Wasn't horrible but need some more work. Pretty much full speed swings. 
    • Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here. 
    • Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.
