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.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
