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)

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.

      My Swing (StuM)

      By StuM · Posted

      I’m posting my Stack System results here. I’m not sure what to make of the information below, other than I have plenty of room for improvement.  I was going a little to fast at the  start and need to slow down and pay attention to the timer between shots. I hit some balls after this snd the launch monitor showed several were 245 total which I felt may have been a little generous.  They were good shots (for me) but just looking at the distance markers at the range I felt I was shorter than that.

      Appearance on Be Better Golf Show to Discuss VisionTrack!

      I've watched the video and I like Brendan's presentation. It explains exactly how they arrived at creating the original VisionTrack itself so many years ago.

      Core Shorts

      By Themightyoz · Posted

      I am wondering if anybody has ever used these and if so did you use the 3.0 or the 1.0.  I think it might help prevent injury in my hips/groin that seems to show up every couple of years.  Would love to hear as well if they restrict swing in any way.   CORESHORTS | The Original CORESHORTS™ Revolutionary X band design mimics the functional anatomy of the body's core area to boost performance | Anti-odor technology prevents the growth...

      Have You Ever Clean Your Grips?

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I think dish soap is ideal. It's not good to wash your hands with dish soap because it strips away all the oils and dries them out a bunch. That's what is making the grip dirty though - you want something that will dissolve oils. Hand soap is generally gentle on your hands and won't do much to clean your grips - at least not without a lot of effort.
