I have a lot of shirts. But I try to stick to white. ( No unsightly sweat stains). And with my favourite Under Armour and my second favorite Nike they are easy maintenance and really wrinkle free. Fall golf is time for turtle necks under wind shirts.

Adidas used to make a shirt called Formotion that fit like that. But why do you want it short??

Interesting that you like tight sleeves, I find when they pull during my backswing to be distracting, Nike is definitely the right shirt for you then.

Just preference, I guess...whenever I work out or run, I wear Under Armor type shirts, so I'm used to them.  Makes golf feel similar to other athletic activities, perhaps.

They're not skin-tight or anything, just tighter/shorter than most golf shirts I've tried on (admittedly, I haven't tried many since I've only bought these for the past few years).

Years ago my wife picked up a couple of Champion imitation micro fiber polo shirts from Target.

They were no frills,  solid color and loose and baggy.

I had a white, red, blue and black.

She got them for $19 a piece. They are like wearing nothing at all, and that is what I like.

I am now down to 2 as they are falling apart, worn out, filled with cigar holes, etc.....

But I wear them more often than anything else.

I still prefer cotton even though I live in the humid deep south.  If I wear a higher-tec shirt, I will often wear a cotton undershirt even in hot weather. I do have one Nicklaus I like ok.

My favorite shirt is an old all cotton black and white patterned Ralph Lauren Polo that is 4-5 years old.

I own more golf shirts than I need but, if I had to rate a few.

Oakly

Adidas Clima Lite

Hagar Cool 18

Nike Dri Fit

Foot Joy

I can't do cotton anymore in the summer it's just to damn hot. Polyester is so much cooler.

the nike major moment line is really nice.  its expensive but can be had on ebay for cheaper.

i also wear a little bit of ping, ashworth, and UA.

the collar on the nike major moment line is awesome.  it has these little built in weights that keep it down.

All about the fit and feel. Never found a brand with consistent fit so the search for me is wide in the shoulders with sleeves long enough to reach the elbow and an even tapered bottom so it isn't baggy at the hip. Not a fan of rugby style cuts or modern fit where it is so tight it looks like it should be worn with jeans that make you waddle.

I've been buying the FootJoy Pro Dry shirts, the fabric is really comfortable, and there have been lots of colors and patterns I've liked.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
