My guess would be to help protect them from the sun. Also to help keep the sun out of their eyes.

They all wear some type of headwear (cap or visor) for one main reason, they are getting paid to do so. It is the best spot on the human body to advertise.

Amateurs, I beleive do it to look cool.

Yes definitely the best advertising space! Just look at Formula 1. Most expensive advertising space was Michael Schumachers cap.

Yep, ad space. If you look at old golf broadcast videotapes, you'll see few caps, since at the time I believe that the PGA did not allow advertising logos on attire. Now that they do, the players are walking billboards - look at John Daly's shirt!

      Day 203 3-8  Focus on getting wider in backswing and reconnecting arm in downswing. With wider backswing reconnecting arm wasn't happening as well. Made some good progress. Hit foam balls.

      Lets see, Kapalua, and any other course played on Maui, Hualalai, Koolina and the course where the LPGA now plays the Lotte, Poipu, St Andrews, and Ballyliffen. I think that's it, never chased it but sure do enjoy playing Kapalua, Koolina and Hualalai. Will

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Updated feels Backswing 1. Knees stay at the same depth 2. Shift right 3. Right now it's imagining the hand path going right and up by raising the right arm. I imagine the hands holding the club while it is pointed up and behind me at my right shoulder.  4. Torso (belly) and hips stay facing forward.  Downswing 1. Mostly just straightening in combination with arms down behind me. I know my knees are bent, but it doesn't feel like much. It doesn't feel explosive because I am not going from a deeper squat.  2. Hands to right pocket or right foot. It should feel like my go down as my shoulders stay up. Stay taller. I don't need to use the body to get the club down.
