Does anyone use those blue lens golf sunglasses? I just bought a pair and haven't tried them yet. Do they improve anything?

Bolle makes a similar product.  Its supposed to make certain colors stand out more than others.  For golf it makes white stand out and they have a pair for tennis that makes the yellow ball stand out.

I use my Oakley M Frames for almost every thing. Golf, shooting, sports, etc.

Great sunglasses. Oakley usually has golf-specific lenses as well.

I coulda sworn I left the cart right here......

I've got some gray polarized clip-ons which are made designed to fit my prescription glasses frames. Seems to cut down on eye strain.

Only problem: On white-cloudy days, contrast of ball against sky not much, can be hard to track. On bluer days, constrast is excellent!

Anybody have experience with amber-colored sunglasses? (These are popular with rifle and pistol shooters)

Focus, connect and follow through!

They increase contrast really well. I use them for shooting, paintball, and I used to use them for golf in high school. I don't have any at the moment, but they do work very well for contrast, so the ball will show up very well against a grey sky.

      Day 539 - 2026-03-24 Got a bunch of swings in on Swing Coach. I have a good idea what I have to do in the downswing.

      Day 219 3-24 Focus was on turning better with hips and getting more chest rotation. Creating more seperation between hips and chest in backswing. Just did drills today.

      Day 16 (24 Mar 26) - Restart of monthly church men’s grp 9-hole scramble.  Saw much better shot results (attribute to focusing on the takeaway).  Best part of the round was the finishing par 3 ninth.  Three of us miss the green, my nine yr old grandson (who is our 4th) hits it pin high 6’ left of the flag from his tee roughly 120yds. We tell him it’s his honor to make the birdie - he drills it center cup….one proud grandpa!

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Little bit of work in the back yard today. I was going to submit a couple of videos for a follow up but I made a complete dogs breakfast of positioning the camera so that will have to wait.    First swing is a middle distance pitch. Trying not to slide my hips too far forward and keep right arm straighter. I think it’s a hair better but still to be worked on. Second swing is a full shot where I tried to really exaggerate lifting my arms. I swung too far so I think I’m losing it towards the end of the backswing, but it looks less flippy to me. I’m also hitting those plastic balls with holes in so not caring about outcome at all.

      Today's episode was a fun listen. It's always interesting listening to the stories about how different some people are. Equating mechanics and feels is one of those things that good coaches have to do a whole lot. I was surprised to hear that there are some people who just don't have internal feels - that's similar to the discovery that some people can't picture things in their minds. That one blew my mind so to speak.
