I have no idea why this bugs me, but it bugs me.

A lot.




I HATE BLACK GOLF GLOVES.





There. I said it.

No offense to people who use black gloves. A couple guys I play with use black gloves. I don't hate them, just their gloves. I really have no idea why I find it so bothersome, I just think black gloves look absolutely stupid. Black gloves bother me more than shorts or jeans or t-shirts on the course. Obviously I am quite nit-picky and little things tend to bother me more than they should, and black gloves are one of them.

Just wanted to share, as I played with a family friend using a black glove today and it just bothered me all damn round.

Random, but I agree 100%! Along with jeans, jean shorts, long shorts (like mid-shin), t-shirts, and hats on backwards.

Did you watch the Big Break and Tommy "two gloves" Gainey?

Why does it bother you so much? I dont see why you would care what color golf glove someone else chooses to wear.

Haha, yeah that is pretty random. That's odd how it bothers you more than shorts or jeans on the course.

I wear a black glove occasionally.

My brother wears 2 gloves (white) and it bothers me too.

I know it is completely random and sounds jerkish, and I am ok with that. I can't really give you a reason for it. It's like when people ask me why I think Anchorman and Elf and other Will Ferrell movies aren't funny. I don't really have a reason for it...I just don't think it's funny.

Just don't like black gloves.

Also, if you want to throw me off my game...just hand me a club.

Also also, my avatar is a section from one of my scorecards. A birdie, a 10, a bogey and a par on 4 consecutive holes - all short par 3s.

We all have some thing that ticks us off psycologically. I remember playing with an older gentleman once who absolutley cant stand plaided shorts. He said , he always thinks its so disgusting. I never understood why, until I took psychology classes.... and its actually so normal.

But like many said , I am too bothered by some who plays in jeans and printed t-shirts with no collar. I hate to sound so elitist ...but it just so distasteful to look at.

AHA. That's what I had figured, but the "4 6 5 6" part always threw me off. But, Its just nailed me, that's probably the score of a playing partner!?

Yes. That line is probably my Dad's score.

    • Day 187: 6/27/24 Putting practice on a 3’ 1” wide ruler. Slow motion swings with a PW.
    • Those look good.
    • I hit a bad tee shot on hole 7, but made a stupid recovery.  There was the easy punch out into the fairway and have about 150 in. Then there was to hit a low overdraw that stayed in this alley of trees that could run the ball up near the green. I was 185 yards into the green. I took my 5 iron and laced a low draw to about 15 yards short of the green. Off a pretty tight light as well. I was really proud of this shot. The ball didn't get more than 15-Ft off the ground for about 160 yards. 
    • Trying to describe the swings tonight in comparison to the better swigs on the range.  1. Not hanging out on the trail side as long as I need. Even though it was a slight push cut, the best struck ball was the 7 iron on hole 9. nGIR from 185 yards, like 8 yards off center of green from 185 yards, so like a 4% leave, not too shabby. Took me long enough to exaggerate this feel. 🙄 I finally was able to get an up and down for par. Short game feels average, but I can't buy a putt right now. I am hitting decent putts. Good weight. Just nothing going in outside of 5-FT.  2. Downswings were not the good kind where I get separation with the hands from my body. It was a lot of dipping the body and keeping elbow bend. When I hit a lot of big pushes, I know this is happening. It tends to be the pattern, especially when I struggle to turn good. Things just dip way to the inside. Just struggled with this tonight. I think it was probably because I didn't get the pause feel correct.  3. Wedges were really good. SW, GW, and PW are the best clubs right now to feel a good swing. I am just able to really feel the club stop short of A4, pause it, and then rip it. I had 138 yards shot into a par 3, and I took my PW. I felt like I kept the swing at like A2.5, and just crushed it to 138 yards. Like, ball landed 4-FT right of the pin, then spun back 25-FT off the green. Kind of a stupid green, like 5% slope back to front.  Current good feels.  1. Swing length to A3.  2. Gain separation between my body and hands in the downswing.  3. Somehow add turning into this? This really my biggest struggle. There are three outcomes right now. First, I turn and don't get my hands down well. Second, I get my hands down and it feels like I do not turn at all. Third, I sync up both and crush the ball. 
    • Day 602, June 27, 2024 Work downtown before lessons. It has to feel really exaggerated.
