I have popped my collar before, lets be honest though, what you gna do about it? (only joking btw, Although I have popped my collar, purely to avoid sun burn)

Belts in golf can be a big fashion statement, I like to look good on the golf course and a belt can make/break a particular outfit, imo.

Are people really that concerned with what belt they wear to play golf? That's absolutely amazing to me. To each their own I guess, but come on people. Let me guess, you all have popped collars too.

I like to have a good belt. However not so much on the popped collar.

I'm beginning to build a belt collection. And starting to get a little more open to anything other than brown or black. But, I will never, ever, own a white belt. Maybe one with white in it, but plain white, n~o. I look for belts with texture. A webbed belt or stamped leather designs. Different materials too.

I just ordered a white one yesterday after seeing them everywhere at the matchplay. To be fair I've just bought a nice pair of white eccos that needs a matching belt... at least that's what I'm telling myself

I love belts and belt buckles. They fall just behind watches in my accessory collection. I wear anything from a huge cowboy one with a bull skull to a very basic black/white reversable one that I picked up at Golfsmith on clearence. I was recently drawn to a kiosk at the mall where they had a ton of really cool buckles. Then I walked around to the other side and saw all of their watches and ended up with a watch instead. I have a great Sean John one, although I think P. Diddy is a complete ass. One of my favorites is one i will not wear to the golf course. It says F*** Off, without the *'s about 20 times on it in various scripts. It's more of my feel good belt.

I have a small belt collection, but I'm not a fan of big buckles or white belts. I just like them nice and simple. I have a couple by Ferragamo and Gucci (have to match the shoes ), as well as Perry Ellis and Hillfiger. And yes... straight guys are allowed to dress nice.

As a simple, gentlemanly, foppish rule of fashion - the belt must always match the shoes; just like, one is never supposed to button the bottom button on a waist coat or vest.

So, if you’re going to wear all-white spikes, you are going to have to wear an all-white belt. And there’s nothing wrong with that, unless you wear those all-white spikes after Labor Day.

I like coach products so I usually buy coach belts, they last almost forever.

conservative but classic, wear with your suit, causal wear or golf wear.

I actually saw some reversible belts that were interesting (white/black) and even one that was blue/white - a little aggressive but fun

I have one of these

Me too! I have the white one, I think it looks cool. I also have a white Nike belt, black Nike belt and the J Lindeberg belt that looks like a wedge...

rather than spend 65$ on a belt, I'd rather spend 10$ and put the savings on a nice round of golf.

I just bought my first white belt, looking forward to wearing it tomorrow.

I just got a Nike Belt that is reversible, black and white. It is a really nice belt. I havent actually used the white side yet but its always there as an option. It was a good purchase definately better than my black Kenneth Cole belt.

    • I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.  
    • Day 48, June 23.  After work today, I took 25 minutes in my practice room;  6-iron, same everything as yesterday except the time and count. 
    • Well, this is interesting.  I think we discovered a few months ago that I haven't been following professional golf in a while (my confusion about Scotty's footwork confirmed that), so at least as I aim to follow a bit more I'll get something new to learn with all of you.  My very quick read of Erik's summary makes me think this new Challenger series fits somewhere between Korn Ferry and the Championship (not Champions, but I know I'm going to make that mistake a few times if I'm not careful!).   My recollection is that there were already second-tier events among the PGA Tour;  the Bob Hope didn't have the same quality of field as the event at Riviera (whose current name I forget, although now that I say that, I realize the Palm Springs event hasn't been called the Bob Hope in a few years either).   With the absence of the FedEx (if I'm reading that correctly), does that mean no more FedEx Cup at all? Hopefully I'll have time later in 2026 to sit down and see what we're in for in 2027, where one of my goals already is to follow more professional golf.
    • The highlights as I see them: Championship and Challenger Series The creation of the PGA Tour and the PGB Tour, in the words of Joel Dahmen a few years ago. They're calling them the Championship Series (23-24 events) and the Challenger Series (20+ events). Both run February to August. They feel this will achieve three things: increasing the consistency and quality of fields across the season creating a clear system for players to earn and retain status and delivering a more structured and competitive experience for fans and partners—all in an effort to strengthen meritocracy. Championship Series Structure and Eligibility The 23-24 events includes the Players, majors, season-ending events, and the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. These will be 72-hole events with a 36-hole cut to the top 65 and ties and purses of $20M+. 120 players without an alternate list. 90 players (roughly) from the previous year and 20 players promoted from the Challenger Series. Full eligibility will be finalized later this year. Sites (cities) to be finalized soon, but 10 of the 15 courses have already been determined. Postseason: includes retention and relegation and concludes with match play. The Tour Championship will also be played across a rotation of prestigious courses. Challenger Series Structure and Eligibility 20+ events. Running concurrently. Will feature players fighting their way back to the Championship Series or players graduating and on the upswing from the Korn Ferry Tour. Many of these events will be current PGA Tour courses. About 7 of the Challenger Series events will be during off weeks for the Championship Series with elevated purses and visibility. Purses of at least $4M, with cuts similar to the Champ series. 144 player fields. Competitive Fields for Both Series Players will be eligible for only one series at a time: Championship Series Players are not eligible for Challenger Series events. Championship Series members will have a known schedule with all events having the same eligibility. Players and Majors will have their own eligibility criteria. Championship Series players don't have to play all events. This begs the question about, say, the Canadian Open, and other "home-town" events that players might want to play, even if they're Challenger Series events. Will releases be granted? Promotion and Relegation At least 90 players will be retained in the Championship Series, and 20 players will be promoted from the Challenger Series each year. Battlefield promotion for two-time winners from the Challenger Series. Players relegated from the Championship Series will have a "last chance" opportunity to retain status, or will go to the Challenger Series. Criteria will be finalized before the start of the 2027 season. Points System New points system (not FedExCup points). Separate points systems for the Championship and Challenger Series. Elevated points in the Challenger Series for off-weeks on the Championship Series. More details tk. Elevated International Events in the Fall The fall schedule will include a limited series of elevated international events with top players from the Championship Series, with the intent to deliver in partnership with the DP World Tour as part of the Strategic Alliance. Last Chance Series The Tour will develop a “last chance” series of 4-6 events in the fall, with a limited number of spots on the Championship Series available for top finishers. Eligibility will include players relegated from the Championship Series, Challenger Series players, and other categories to be determined. Q-School continues, as do the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Also, Brian Rolapp is the new commissioner as of January 1, 2027.
