When I know I'm playing only 18holes in a day I've been walking lately. Yesterday I went with boxers and they kept riding up. The fact that my pants keep falling down because I forgot a belt maybe played part in this. But I was kind of uncomfortable all day in the boxers. Today I went with boxer briefs and forgot that I had underwear on at all. They really worked out nicely.

I'm torn though.

I've recently switched to boxer briefs (from boxers) for rounds (I walk most of the time).  I also put some powder in them for hot days.  I'm still on boxers most of the rest of the time, although as they go into disrepair, my new pairs will likely be of the boxer brief variety.

I always walk.  Boxer briefs this time of year and briefs when the weather gets warmer up hear in Pennsylvania.   'Champion'  makes the best "sweat wicking"  underwear.

Switched from briefs to boxer briefs about 20 years ago. Never did like boxer boxers - the seam is in the wrong place. Maybe if my anus was off to the side they'd be okay.

Need an option for "Other". For every other sport I've ever played, I've worn Easton/Nike/Under Armor base layer/compression shorts. Some are thicker than others and designed for colder weather as opposed to hot weather. The Nike ones for example are made of the Dri-FIT material and they breathe really nicely, and give a good bit of support. Cottom boxer briefs get soaked on a hot day from sweat, but these stay pretty dry, and dont ride up your junk either.

Under Armour Compression Shorts.  They will change your life.  Trust me on this.

What are compression shorts and why will they change my life? I'm certainly willing to look into them, especially as warmer weather approaches.

Something like this - http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/?#l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-1/pid-224516/pgid-224518

Basically short tights (think boxer briefs kinda), made usually of a Dri-FIT-like material.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
