Whatever I find at the goodwill I never pay full price on golf stuff. At the goodwill i find brand new overstock items for like 8 bucks 5 bucks etc.. Often Nike or weird branded shirts from a company with a logo like a callaway shirt saying Toyota dealership. For me any nike,Adidas,pga tour brand shirt is great and golf shorts in the summer for me generally any brand that matches my shirt.

I have a few pairs of Nike (Dri-tec or something?) that I've worn for awhile that are comfortable.  The newest pair I have, though, is Under Armour from the outlet mall down the street.  (I don't know what the model is)  And I plan on buying a few more pairs soon since most of the Nike's are too big for me now.

I have UA, Puma and Nike.  All 3 are great but the UA pants are a little snug, which I hear is common.

Nike dry-tec and  couple of ashworth although I wear pants as little as possible.

I wear Nike, Adidas in spring / summer and Haggar golf pants in fall / winter.  I don't usually worry about the model as long as it's some sort of tech material that doesn't absorb sweat.

I use adidias climalite and climacool, they are the closest thing to wearing just shorts in a long pant that I've worn.  I'm a 32/30 and have thin legs and a small butt, these fit me pretty well.  Jason Day fills them out much better though.

I find them on sale at Dick's Sporting Goods online from time to time.

I always use these on hot days for the sun protection.  I have 5 or 6 pairs.

Love my UA tapered leg pants. I splurged on them but I think they're worth it.

Whatever brand Ross happens to have.  They often have Nike dri-tec pants for around $20.

Whatever covers my butt and legs! I do try to dress nicely for golf, but don't feel constrained to drop a bundle on "golf specific" apparel. I have found some nice things at Kohl's that are relatively inexpensive.

My regular formal pants that I used to use for the office and such.  Mostly the older ones that are still in reasonable condition.  Occasionally will wear shorts but not very often and not too keen on it.  Pants keep your legs protected and cooler

  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)

LOL... I can't believe I read this thread. Ha!

How can't you believe it, you did read it. If you can't believe what you actually done then that is a tad strange. :-P

Which would be the primary purpose of pants ;)

Neither do I, but I like comfort over price in this regard, especially since I walk a golf course a lot.

I have been enjoying a pair of prAna pants. They are a bit more casual, unzip to shorts, water and weather repellent with lots of pockets. Made for hiking they are rather stretchy and great for golf as long as you can wear cargo style pants. They are pretty much my go to pants for golf lately.

Almost like wearing so jammies to golf in...

    • It sucks to carry around a lot of water, but ideally it should be way more than we think.  I buy those gallon jugs of water and hang them from my pushcart when I walk. I agree with the electrolytes as well. You don't just sweat out water, but you lose electrolytes as well. 
    • A 2010 study from the Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research compares the effects of different pre-round stretch routines for competitive golfers. Active Dynamic Warm-up: Swing Medicus driver, hit 3 shots each with selected clubs. Passive Static Stretches: Various athletic stretches such as hamstrings, chest stretch and reverse trunk twist. The subjects were collegiate golfers with a HDCP index of 5 or less who engaged regularly in strength and fitness routines. All golfers had two test days: one with active dynamic (AD) warmup, a second with AD followed by static stretches (SS). The results were then compared, within golfers and across golfers. For performance testing after the warmups, golfers hit three driver shots at time 0, 15, 30 and 45 minutes after the warmup. The study shows that static stretch formats produced poorer performance outcomes in the four measures shown in Table 5, which shows Time Zero results. The performance deficits under the PSS protocol decreased over time. Some suggestions on why the passive protocol was tied to lower performance than the active protocol: The passive stretches routine induced excessive range of motion,  basically producing wobbles in the golf swing. Other research indicates that the stretching produced slack in the tendons, lessening the amount of muscle force that could be transferred into the shot. One caveat: The study had good scientific controls and balancing of treatments (test routines). This was, however, an exploratory study and raises as many questions as it answers. Also, although the study was done back in 2010, it is still cited as a primary work in recent reviews. A quick online search did not reveal any follow-ups on the study. For those interested, the study PDF is below. PassiveStretchGOLF.pdf  
    • I have trouble with vertigo on occasion, but have gotten nutritional and biofeedback tips to keep it at bay. Dehydration can help trigger v-like symptoms so one recommendation, along with maintaining overall hydration, is to start with 8 oz. of water early in the morning. A meta-analysis on Golf As Physical Activity indicated that golf is rated as a moderately intensive physical activity. This scientific literature review came from the University of Edinburgh. The physical activity level ties into hydration. A former university colleague was a marathon runner who had published a couple of articles on endurance training. He likewise said that golf was a moderate physical activity especially when the round stretched past  the two-hour mark. For hydration he recommended switching from water to electrolyte drink on the back nine (past two hour point of exercise) to prevent cramping. At the two-hour point of moderate activity, water starts flushing electrolytes out of the body, which can lead to fatigue and cramping. (I have had trouble with leg cramps in the past during exertion.) During a round, I start out with water on the front nine and switch to sports drink on the back nine. If the day is unusually hot, I may drink 8 oz. of Pedialite concentrate before going to the course. Maintaining overall hydration plus on-course boosters keeps me going.
    • Personally I’d try booking direct first - either via the Vidanta golf reservations number/email or through the resort concierge - especially for Christmas/New Year. Vidanta’s main courses (Greg Norman and Nicklaus designs) are popular and can book out fast this time of year, so direct often gives you the best shot at your preferred tee times.
