LinkSoul is a fairly new apparel company (and I don't just mean shirts - they've got everything, including sandals , shoes , hats , even sunglasses and more!) that is making some pretty cool stuff that I wanted to talk to you guys about.

One of their PGA Tour players is Geoff Ogilvy:

Another video just because:

@mvmac and I selected LinkSoul as the official apparel company of the 2015 Newport Cup!

So let's welcome them to the site, check out their site, and look to order some clothing and apparel. It's top notch stuff, feels great, and looks both unique and classic at the same time.

Yep they have some pretty nice stuff and it's cool that John Ashworth (yes that Ashworth) is the man behind it all.

Quote:
John Ashworth began playing with the idea of Linksoul over twenty years ago while building Ashworth, Inc. After leaving Ashworth, and following a long and winding road through several creative endeavors from course design in Scotland, to designing Quiksilver's golf apparel line, Fidra, and back to Ashworth again for another run. Through it all he collected an all-star team, and with them continued to nurture and grow this idea of Linksoul. Together, after years of conceptualizing, collecting, developing and designing, we are very pleased to birth Linksoul.

Curious what everyone's favorite combo of shirt and shorts/pants would be. I'll post mine later. Post yours.

He may be able to purchase his name from Adidas since it looks as if they are about to put Ashworth on the block.

Wonder if he is interested.

The apparel looks understated and kewl...

Drytech Shirt in aqua or aloe heather (that type of material is the deciding factor for me, although I like the "innosoft stripe knit" look the best)

Garbardine Chinos in charcoal or Micro Stripe Shorts in charcoal

and of course ... a grey heather cashmere sweater for the chilly mornings ( sweater vest if its only cool) :beer:

Very cool stuff.  I'd probably go with:

Linen Texture Golf Pants (Grey)

Drytech Shirt (I don't need to pick a color, because once I find a shirt I like I just buy every single color)

I have a good collection of golf clothes right now, but what I might actually buy soon is the shoe bag.  Very cool.

A linksoul ad keeps popping up on my FB feed:  coast highway classic knit shirt for $29 (regular $68).  So I finally bought one today.  We'll see how it goes but between these and the Newport Cup team reviews I've got high expectations.

Re-opening an old thread. 
 

I had purchased Linksoul waterproof pants and jacket. I found the fit great. Since I was a huge fan of Ashworth clothing this seems to make sense. 
I found myself heading over to the Linksoul webpage. Very cool style clothing. 
 

I ordered some golf polos coming. They had a cyber deal going and a 3 pack for $99. The only issue is I have no idea what polos they will be sending. This is by design as that is how the 3 pack is listed. 
 

I am finding lately that I am more intrigued by the Small boutique golf designs lately. 
 

I wear True Linkswear shoes and now am migrating over to Linksoul. Anyone else finding these types of brands more stylish and overall comfort superior to the big brands? 
 

I am hoping the Linksoul polos that come are a good fit. Ashworth always had a good fit for my frame.

I like Linksoul a lot, ever since the 2015 NC, but I stick to their sale items. Every thing else is a bit pricy for me.

I agree the prices are high. I too look for their sales.

The upside is that they always have polos on sale, and they're basically identical to the stuff that isn't on sale.

    • Makes sense.  Like I said, I wouldn't have been upset at their original offer either, and based on the fine print it seems like they've held up their end of the deal.  
    • If you've only had to adjust retroactively one time in 8 years and have around 5 people each year without handicaps, that's like 40-50 people total so it sounds like you're doing a pretty good job. I think your questions give enough to go off of. This might be a good way to get new people to actually post a few scores during the 6 weeks leading into the first event. Something like "New members will be eligible for tournament money once they have at least 3 posted rounds in GHIN" or something like that. If they can get 3 rounds in prior to their first event, then they're eligible. If not, they'll soon become eligible after an event or two assuming they play a little bit outside of events.
    • This is a loooooong winded narrative so if you don't like long stories, move on. 😉 Our senior club typically gets about 25 new members each year. We lose about 25 members each year for various reasons (moved to FL/AZ, disabled, dead, too expensive). Of the new members, usually 20 have an active GHIN handicap. About 5 each year do not have a GHIN handicap. When they join our club, we give each member a state association membership that includes GHIN handicapping services. We play a series of handicapped tournaments over the summer. When we sign up a new member who does not have a GHIN handicap, we attempt to give them an estimated index until they have sufficient scores posted to have an actual GHIN index.  Our first event typically is around May 15 so, in theory, a new member has about 6 weeks to post a few scores. Posting season in the Mitten starts April 1. Inevitably, several of the unhandicapped individuals seem  to either not play until the first tournament or can't figure out how to enter scores (hey, they are seniors). That situation then leads to my contacting the new member and asking a series of questions: a. Did you ever have a GHIN handicap? If yes, which State and do you recall what it was? b. Do you have an alternate handicap through a non-GHIN handicap service or a league? c. What do you think your average score was last year (for 9 or 18) d. What was your best score last year? Where did you play and which tee was used? e. What do you consider a very good score for yourself? Based on their responses I attempt to give them an index that makes them competitive in the first couple events BUT does not allow them to win their flight in the first couple events. We don't want the new members to finish last and at the same time, we don't want someone with a "20" playing handicap to win the third flight with a net 57. In the event some new member did shoot a net 57, we also advise everyone that we can and will adjust handicaps retroactively when it is clear to us that a member's handicap does not accurately reflect their potential. We don't like to adjust things retroactively and in the 8 years I have chaired the Handicap Committee, we have only done it once. So here are the questions to the mob: Any ideas how to do this better? Any questions one might ask an unhandicapped individual to better estimate their index/handicap? Would it be reasonable to have a new player play once (or more?) without being eligible to place in the money?
