does anybody have experience using UA cold gear stuff while playing golf? Winter is coming and I'm tired of getting cold on the links... wonder if the "skin-tight" stuff is not impeding full range of motions.

I just used the UA Cold Gear shirt last week during a round in south/central NJ. I teed off at 7:10 AM on Sunday with 40-50 degree temps. The shirt was sweet!! I wore it under my UA golf shirt (coincidence) and shorts.

The shirt didn't restrict my movement at all and was extremely comfortable and warm. IIRC, the temps rose to 50-60 during the last few holes of the round and I did find myself pulling up the sleeves to give my forearms more cool air.

One downside, I happen to wear the only synthetic material golf shirt I own over the cold gear and had a heck of a time keeping my shirt tucked into my shorts. I assume that since both shirts had some combination of spandex/nylon/cotton/poly? there was no friction to keep the golf shirt tucked.

Anyway, I love the shirt and will probably buy one more. Since I HATE wearing jackets during golf, I'm guessing I can wear the cold gear under a golf shirt into 30 degree temps. There are probably cheaper alternatives but since this worked for me I will not experiment.

almost... you just have to drive further and further down south. Courses in Atlantic City area are pretty much open year-round, of course if there is no snow on the ground. Last 3 winters were tough.. but that's what South Carolina is for. $200 round trip ain't THAT bad after shoveling 4 feets of snow

    • Day 24 9-7 Worked on lower body movement with full swing. Focused on hips. Need to work on setup a bit. Was hoping to get to the short game area today, stayed home and recorded some swings instead. I've come to the conclusion I learn the most with my practice setup at home, just a net and a hitting strip. Overall happy with the progress this week. 
    • Day 2 (September 7), still with the grip and the medicine ball (using weights).   Still on vacation and really aching to be able to do a full practice the way I'd be able to at home.  Also bought a 1/2" section of pipe today at the hardware store and have been regularly practicing the grip with that too while watching Sunday football with the family.  
    • Day 1: Worked on feels for wedge swings. Primarily getting everything to move from the top of the backswing in the correct sequence. 
    • Day 6 (7 Sep 25) - Afternoon pitch session with the 54 and 58 in the backyard. Keys: Alignment - Setup - Smooth swing thru - working on each to be as “automatic” as possible - not mindless, but deliberately repeatable. I have found the precision required to properly execute carries well into the full swings.  
    • 180% is the threshold. But yeah, many of them are close to 200%. Not 120 and 123%. People generate speed differently. I think your speed will come more easily when this stuff gets sorted out. Stay disciplined. Stay on the road. You can't get off exit 74 before you hit exit 32.
