I always wear a hat.  I don't have "locks", although I did back in my college days when I went four years without a haircut.  As a matter of fact, thanks for the reminder.  I'm still waiting for my two Imperial Headwear TST hats.

My hair's thinning way too quickly to do *anything* outdoors without a hat.

When I took up golf last year, the rest of my family rejoiced with all the new gift ideas for me. So of course I have a shelf full of golf-related hats in my closet now.

I can't wear anything on my head when I play, glasses or a hat, it throws my balance off or something,problem is I'm bald, shaved head and I wear glasses. When I was playing hockey I'd wear contacts and recently switched to wearing them all day. I've only been going out and playing in the evenings lately but I know this summer I'll be forced to start doing something to protect the dome piece in the sun.At the public par 3 I played a few times in the spring I regretted not wearing my old goalie mask though.....

Same here, I only wear Titleist hats and visors unless I it's one I've picked up from different courses I've played at or tournaments I've been to (have to rock the masters visor occasionally)

With the exception of my Boo Weekly camo Cleveland hat

None of the above. This is the hat I've worn every round this year. My wife loathes this hat

Gotta wear a hat - suns too hot in South Texas.  I also look like an idiot in a visor.  More importantly, I *feel* like an idiot in a visor.  My wife, for some reason, really wants me to wear a visor - she even bought me one - but it sits in my closet next to the ratty baseball cap that I play in.

Nothing against the visor guys . .some of us just can't pull 'em off.

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      Never practiced golf when I was young and the only lesson ever taken was a driver lesson. I feel like I'm improving every year. However, the numbers don't support my feeling about improving. I usually drop to 12-13 during the summer while playing the familiar courses around home and then go on golf trips in the fall to new courses and increase to end the year between 15-17. Been a similar story for a number of years now but hey, it's the best thing there is in life so not too bothered but reaching 9.9 is the objective every year. Maybe a few lessons and practice could help me achieve it since I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing, just playing and never practice.

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am semi-loyal. Usually buy four dozen of one ball and only play that until out and then determine whether to continue or try another one. Since starting my semi-loyal path to success, I've been playing the below, not in order: ProV1 ProV1x ProV1x left dash AVX Bridgestone BXS Srixon Z-star XV I am not sure if it has helped anything, but it gives a bit of confidence knowing that it at least is not the ball (while using the same one) that gives different results so one thing less to mind about I guess. On the level that I am, not sure whether it makes much difference but will continue since I have to play something so might as well go with the same ball for a number of rounds. Edit: favorite is probably the BXS followed by ProV1/Srixon Z-star XV. Haven't got any numbers to back it up but just by feel.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      Will not do it by myself, going to the pro shop I usually use after Cristmas for input and actually doing the changes, if any, but wanted to get some thoughts on whether this was worthwhile out of curiosity.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      In terms of ball striking, not really. Ball striking being how good you are at hitting the center of the clubface with the swing path you want and the loft you want to present at impact.  In terms of getting better launch conditions for the current swing you have, it is debatable.  It depends on how you swing and what your current launch conditions are at. These are fine tuning mechanisms not significant changes. They might not even be the correct fine tuning you need. I would go spend the $100 to $150 dollars in getting a club fitting over potentially wasting money on changes that ChatGPT gave you.  New grips are important. Yes, it can affect swing weight, but it is personal preference. Swing weight is just one component.  Overall weight effects the feel. The type of golf shaft effects the feel of the club in the swing. Swing weight effects the feel. You can add so much extra weight to get the swing weight correct and it will feel completely different because the total weight went up. Imagine swinging a 5lb stick versus a 15lb stick. They could be balanced the same (swing weight), but one will take substantially more effort to move.  I would almost say swing weight is an old school way of fitting clubs. Now, with launch monitors, you could just fit the golfer. You could have two golfers with the same swing speed that want completely different swing weight. It is just personal preference. You can only tell that by swinging a golf club.

      Thanks for the comments. I fully understand that these changes won't make any big difference compared to getting a flawless swing but looking to give myself the best chance of success at where I am and hopefully lessons will improve the swing along the way. Can these changes make minor improvements to ball striking and misses then that's fine. From what I understood about changing the grips, which is to avoid them slipping in warm and humid conditions, is that it will affect the swing weight since midsize are heavier than regular and so therefore adding weight to the club head would be required to avoid a change of feel in the club compared to before?
