Sex?   White Belt = Chastity Belt. The ice cream man, and old geezers wore them.

Personally, I think you should all meet in the middle with a piano belt.  Black and White, done.  Plus you can all dance in a circle to Michael Jackson...it's black...it's white...yeah yeah yeah.

White belts, White drivers and white grips are better suited for women.  The white craze will die eventually, hopefully.

I don't see why one can't wear a white belt.   wear one and I have been for a long time.  Looking good when playing golf shows respect for the game.  Some of us are hackers who hate others who are better player.  Because a hacker can't beat you, he has to find other ways to put you down.  Let your game speak for you and not your mouth.  Cali

The fact that anyone has an issue with white belts is laughable. Come on people, get a little sense of style. Seeing old guys on the golf course wearing baggy pleated khaki dockers and oversize navy blue polo shirts is depressing. White belts are fashionable and contemporary. They also look classy when paired with the correct shoes and overall outfit. They look a hell of a lot nicer than the old brown leather braided belts some of you guys are probably still wearing. Look good, feel good, play good.

I guess we all have a little to much time on our hands.  I am not sure what is more depressing the fact that this thread was even started?  or the fact there are 113 replies to it?  Or the fact that I just wasted 10 minutes of my morning reading the first 3 pages?  I have a 36 inch waist and I own a white Puma belt....I wasn't sure if I looked stupid but now I know I do.....Belt is going in the trash thanks guys I am glad this is cleared up, it is a huge weight off my shoulders.

I just can not look that flashy out on the range.

Black or Grey slacks, once in a while black or gray shorts.

White, black or Blue polo I don't tuck it in.

White and Black Nike Shoes

Black socks

Black, white or blue hat.

Black and White bag.

I like everything simple maybe one day i will get a more colorful shirt or bag?

I know a bit boring.

I like a white belt with white pants, solid color polo, (mostly) white shoes. To me that's pretty conservative golf attire.

Along with the ban on anchoring belly putters, the USGA is considering a ban on male golfers over age 40 wearing white belts.

And female golfers under the age of 30 will be prohibited from wearing long pants.

I'll have to stock up on those "eggshell" belts for five years from now then.

Hey now, I bought my very first white belt* at 43! Mid-life crisis, probably -- but cheaper than a Harley and/or 25-year-old dental hygienist.

Just don't wear the pants and belt way above the naval.  That is the warning sign of "old man golfer" disease.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.
