I fall into no white belt land...not young or old enough!

Old people 40 and up!! WTF! I am 41 and not old in any way. I wear white belts all the time and I guarantee I look better than both of you. I play golf better than both of you as well.

This is reality. It's a classic look and a favorite of the AARP crowd. I don't wear white shoes so no white belts for me but it does look sharp.

I have a white belt, so what?  If im wearing a white shirt with khaki or black pants why do I have to wear brown or black belts?  Leave me alone.

I have a white loudmouth belt I wear with two pairs of my loudmouth pants. I also have a lime green one I wear with another pair of loudmouths.  Shirts are usually Nikes, and shoes are Footjoy MyJoys, a pair in black, white/brown, and a third pair of Puma's in red. I also wear those old man driver caps. Oh and I have a set of Plus Fours! And a Kilt. I golf in both, but I do wear boxers with the kilt.

I must be really lame. But i'm 6'4, 238, so not many people tell me so.

I can't believe some of these clowns addressing this white belt issue.  First of all I've only been playing for 14 months now.  My average after 42 rounds is 110.4.  I have broken 100 6 times which is pretty dayuum good for 14 months of playing considering that 85% of all amateur golfers never even break 100.  My lowest score was 92.  I could care less about handicaps, weight, waist size, etc.  I wear a white belt and I wear a black belt because first of all I've been told that the way that I dress on the course, it looks like I shoot in the 70's...Lmao....It's just my street and my golf haberdasheries have no bounds.  I take great pride in what I wear on and off the course, and look good in any cloth, skin, fabric that touches my body.  And I'm a 38 waist.  The name of the game is matching when it comes to clothes.  I'd bet a weeks pay that all the e-d-iots who responded negatively on this whole white belt issue wouldn't know fashion sense if they fell in it.  *Drops the mike.

Reading this thread this morning I got to the end before checking the date of the posts. 2010. :) It's now 2013 and the white belt is still going strong here in the UK. Bought mine from Next, a fashion store over here. Still got two years to go then. ;)

    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry 
    • So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...  
    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
