i don't own any golf hats, but if i did, i would probably buy a hat brand that matches with my club manufacturer brand.  the majority of my equipment is callaway, but i have mixed in some nickent equipment recently.

currently i wear a "golf style" chicago white sox cap or a "golf style" indiana univ hat (drives my dad crazy because he is a purdue grad)

Nike Covert 2.0 driver with Kuro Kage

Nike Covert Tour 3 wood

Nike Covert 5 wood

Nike Covert 4 hybrid

Nike VRS Forged irons 5i-GW

Callaway Forged Wedge 56deg

Callaway X-Forged Wedge 60deg

Odyssey White Hot XG #9 putter
2015 Sun Mountain Tour Series cart bag


I mostly wear a Blue jays baseball cap when i play away from my home course, since I work a few shifts a week in the pro shop, were they frown upon wearing any hats that arent branded with some golf logo or company. My options are golf hats, or no hat. I have a butt load of golf hats to choose from tho, and a few times a year company reps drop by and offer goodies to staff members, and i usually take a hat over balls.

ditto on the USGA hat.


Red sox hat, john deere hat, nike or titleist hat. Preferably any hat that has a mesh back and is really breathable.

I don't wear "gear" anything. Only Places I've been too. I'm lucky that I have the oppertunity to travel quite a bit and have played at many nice places. I'm not saying top end courses, just some very nice public places far from home. I can't afford a $500 bucks a round, but I an play several nice places for less than $200 per trip when I got to go on the road.

Hat from a NAVY SEAL base in Virginia, jumps to mind. Probably the hardest place I've ever been. The NAVY knows some stuff about water, and they've shared it on their Golf course. I lost a tremendous amount of balls there.

A wind breaker from a Public course in New Jersey, Quail brook GC, is my favorite.  I want another chance at that one some day! Went to Rhode Island this past summer with two seperate Tee times at two different places, played Triggs one the first day, and cancelled my Tee for the other place and played Triggs for a second time the following day, Played worse the second round.

Figures...

I ordered a Chicken and an Egg on the Internet, to find out which came first... I'll keep you posted!


I usually wear what ever I find that is sport or advertising related as long as the logo/wording is not offensive.


I avoid OEMs.

I buy 3 Iliac hats each season.

A hat is a hat. I wear a shimano fishing visor most of the time. Recently I've been wearing my Detroit Tigers hat just to rep my team so I don't think brands matter. If you're knocking down shots, nobody is going to question your hat selection.


For most days, I usually wear a black Callaway cap or a Ping visor (the hats came before the Callaway and Ping clubs). For those scorching summer days or rainy days, I sometimes sport an Underarmor bucket hat that a friend picked up for me last year. I'd personally be fine with any golf brand hat, tbh.

    • Rule 1.2b refers you to a section in the Committee Procedures (Section 5I) that helps explain what a Code of Conduct may (and may not) do.  Defining acceptable behavior (including smoking) and applying Stroke of DQ penalties are certainly within the Committee's authority. That Code of Conduct certainly should be available, either in written form or in a webpage accessible to all.  It may not show up on the "standard local rules" for an organization, the "hard card", as it sounds like its a policy of this particular golf course. Assuming that's the case it should show up on the Notice to Players for this particular event.  If you can't find it, ask someone, send an email, try to find out.   In summary, yes the Committee can DQ (or withdraw) a Player for smoking, even before or between rounds.  But its up to you to go from there, communication is the key here.

    • Hmm... I not sure I completely understand. If the course has a no smoking policy, then he shouldn't smoke at the course.  I'm assuming since you are aware of the policy, it must be written down somewhere.  As far as getting disqualified from the tournament, I would think that would be up to the committee. But it feels like it is within their power to disqualify, so why take the chance?
