my friends are clueless. they have no idea how to match and then they wonder why the coach yells at them. one time, my friend showed up to a practice round with blue and green shorts (vertical stripes) and a yellow and navy polo (horizontal stripes) and got yelled at for the rest of the week. needless to say, that outfit never came out again

I usually just wear a pair of cargo shorts and a polo shirts. I don't tend to dress crazy on the course, at least to me it isn't. I have a lime green shirt and a orange shirt I wear sometimes, but do not consider them to be crazy colors, and no i do not think the way you dress is that much of an intimidation factor.

On a side not has anyone tried the Bubba Watson clothing line. If so what did you think of it? Here is a link to it: http://www.bubbawatson.com/product.html

Hey, that's well said. I like frame of mind you are trying to create. Confidence is

Thanks - I agree completely about confidence; "I'm placing this ball on the green", rather than "I have to avoid the right OB".

Yeah me either. i had not been in a while and happened to be in the mall yesterday and decided to go in, and they had a big display with Bubba Watson on it. Most of the shirts looked pretty nice, except for a few i did not care for. To get a moisture wicking shirt like that for $15 is impossible. I might have to give them a try. I will say that the shorts looked a little strange the way they were made, material mostly.

this may sound really weird but its just something I do: I never wear shorts. When I play, no matter how hot it is, I always wear a pair of black or khaki microfiber Izod golf pants. I picked them up for 14.99 each at a TJ Maxx, they are money.

I went to TJ Maxx today and it was pretty cool, I had been there before though. But they do have some cheap prices...

TJ Maxx is a good store to find some really good deals, but on the other hand you have to be there at the right time. I have gone in there before and looked around for about 30 min and not found a thing, then you can go in there the next week and find all kinds of stuff. That is the only thing that I do not like about TJ Maxx. If you like going to TJ Maxx then another place you might want to check out, if you have one in your area, is Marshalls. They are owned by the same company and are pretty much the same as far as finding deals go.

Yes! Confidence and focusing on positives. Simply using that type of thinking you should be better than your current handicap in no time!

(Back on track) I pose this question to you all: Worst dressed golfer on the PGA Tour? Woody Austin. That guy is in serious need of some new shirts.

I never wear jeans on the golf course and frankly I think If I ever ran a Golf Club I wouldn't let others wear them on my course.

I do like to dress nice for golf, it gives me a sense of professionalism (like how it does in other aspects of life) -- it is mainly for myself, and not to intimidate others.

My favorite golf outfit usually consists of clothes from Polo or Brooks Brothers. A nice white Brooks Brothers polo and some sky blue shorts of theirs are my favorite golf outfit, sometimes I wear khaki pants with a pink polo or dark blue etc.

Golfing always seemed more natural in pants, the fact that golf shoes seem very big and outlandish to me make me feel more comfortable if they are semi hidden by pants.

I have also found that I golf better in traditional colors, like a dark blue or white polo, as opposed to the magenta or lime green shirts I like to go golfing in.

My favorite golf outfit that seems very professional and one that you would find on tour is some cuffed khakis with a dark blue polo and a cap. I usually shoot my best when I'm wearing that, I don't know why, can't explain it, it may be pure psychology.

You guys are right, some of the Bubba Wear shirts look nice. I wonder what the fit is like. Bubba is far bigger a dude than I am.

yeah thats the only downfall of TJ's... hit or miss shopping. I have a lot of golf clothes but recently I've been getting into collecting mocks and TJ's always has 2-3 nice mocks when I look in their clearance section. I haven't paid over 14.99 for my mocks, I have some Nickalaus, Nike, Adidas, and a rare Bridgestone (I have never seen a Bridgestone clothing line)

Honestly I usually wear a baggy pair of cargo shorts and a plain white tee from Gap. Some days I feel classy and go with a Polo. Comfort is my main thing. I don't care if I look like a high school drop out. I play at public courses for less than $20, to hell with impressing people. Although I must say I have never worn jeans and don't ever plan to. I draw the line there.

    • Hi everybody!  I am new to the golf game. I have taken some lessons and got fitted for clubs a couple of months ago. I usually score between 110-120 for 18 holes.  I bought a Stealth driver last year and have been hitting consistently with it 210-230 yds on the simulator. But when I take it out on the course, every drive is a severe slice!  I played 18 holes yesterday at the club where I belong. I removed the driver from my bag and used the 5 iron to drive with. I hit straight 16 out of 18 drives, 180 - 200 yds. I used the 5i - putter for the rest of my game.  I ended the day with a 92. Question: Does it make sense for me to continue playing with irons only until I get further along in my game before I reintroduce the Driver and woods again? Or should I continue to struggle with the Driver and woods and shoot in the 100’s again? To me it’s a no brainer, but for those more advanced I am interested to get feedback.
    • Thank you, currently I only had the 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9 irons in the bag. I was never finding myself in a situation to use the 4 and 5 so I dropped those a while ago. The 60W is what I've been practicing with the most in the back yard, but that's only with short chipping. I don't think I've ever practiced hitting my wedges at 80% - 100% apart from yesterday. Maybe I should be doing that more. Generally I would be using a 9 iron if I was out about 75 yards or so. I am not really sure I understand your mention of the 60W and 3H. Aren't these going to be giving me completely different results? Unfortunately I am not able to adjust the loft on the hybrids I have. I looked into the Shot Scope H4 you suggested and this seems really neat and handy, however I am struggling to understand how it works. Am I correct in assuming it doesn't track the ball distance until you hit the ball a second time? Say I drive from the tee and walk up to my ball, tag the next club and hit the ball. Is it at this point when I tag my next club while standing next to my ball that is knows the distance? Thank you, I am going to give the local shop a call and check their prices and see what they can offer.
    • Do you know what their handicaps are? The handicap system isn't perfect and given the higher variance from higher handicaps, I think low handicap players would be expected to win maybe 60% of their matches? I'm not exactly sure what that number is and it will vary with the handicap difference, but if they're generally very low handicaps, then they might be at 60% likely to win a game. Given it's 16 vs 16, that's a lot of games to win. If it's 60%, then that's around an 80% chance that they'll win a given match. At 80% chance of winning, 21 wins in a row is about 1 in 108 times. Pretty unlikely, but not unheard of. It's pretty sensitive to what that individual win percentage is too. If it's 65%, then 21 wins is about 1 in 9. If it's 55%, then 21 wins is 1 in about 5,700. Clearly it's not as simple as this because that win likelihood is going to change match to match as they play lower handicap teams or higher handicap teams, but I don't think it's a "yes they're cheating" thing at all.
    • I'll be honest, the only reason the 2 iron was in my bag is because I tend to hit the ball into the tree's fairly often. And I was using it to help me keep the ball very low to get out of the tree's while avoiding getting much loft to hit branches. I guess I can drop the 3H as well. Would it be wise to give a higher loft fairway wood a try as well, something like a 26 degree? I believe there is only one golf shop where I live that has a golf simulator and trainer. I see they offer free fitting with a purchase from the fitter. I'll have to check how much they charge without a purchase, I've read a few stories about fitters on this forum that just wanted to sell the person the most expensive clubs and that kind of deters me a bit. They do offer lessons as well. I'll give them a call and ask them a bit more about these services. Thank you!
