Hi Folks

I'm new to the club and look forward to discussing golf.  I own a golf apparel line and would be interested to learn your position on today's golf apparel.  Whats lacking what you like and what you would like to see.

Happy Golfin!

It would be one that makes me hit long high drives, stick aproaches, and makes putts from anywhere.  If a shirt could do that, I wouldn't care what it was made of or what color it was.

The most difficult distance in golf is the six inches between your ears.

My ideal shirt would be made of a hi tech fabric like that of foot joy. It would be habe to be a little longer in the body to enable it to be tucked in and STAY tucked in. I dont like fitted shirts so it would be loose fit and come in a range of colours

I like one colour, classic colours, a smidgen of lycra to allow a free swing, a collar that looks okay with a blazer or cardigan, shortish sleeves that hug my girlish biceps. Basically I like something that looks old school, but not 1990 old school. More fabric is not a good value. I'm also not a fitness nut and don't like looking like I was headed to the gym but decided to play golf instead.

Good shirts (imho) - one for each gender:

Ain't that the truth.  I'd wear a periwinkle, sequined half tank top if it would make me a scratch golfer.

    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
