Music on the Course - When Did This Become a Thing?

[Stacey_E]

a little Journey, perhaps?

That's the first thing I thought of too! "So let's dance!" "Anyway you want it, that's the way you need it..."

[denver_nuggs_15]

I have never tried it, but I think it would be distracting. I think you should focus on whatever you are doing 100%. If I listen to music, I won't be 100% focused on my game. Not for me.

I did at golf school this summer, it was nice to tune everyone out and just practice. However, if I am playing with a group I ususally just leave it at home.

I can't imagine how the head phones don't get in the way of a swing

run the cord under rour shirt works perfect

[ganjagolfer]

i play "over the hill and far far away" for my drives



for irons, i listen to "battle of evermore"



for bunkers, its "all along the watchtower"



for putts, its "foxy lady"

[GaijinGolfer]

I dont listen to music while playing golf and I think it would be too much of a distraction. Not to mention you arent going to hear if someone yells, "fore".

I've been thinking about giving this a try, but generally I like to enjoy the ambience of the course. Plus, I'd imagine it would distract me unless I stuck exclusively to instrumentals and foreign-language songs.

Maiden.... Course my ipod got stolen so its been a while since Aces High as been played on a golf course now.

[ganjagolfer]

when i make a long putt, i listen to "sweet child of mine"



when i miss a three foot putt, its "dark side of the moon"

I have a golf playlist on my ipod. It's all slow tempo'd songs. I tend to rush on the course and the music really gets me to slow down.

[PEZGolf]

do you listen to music while playing golf i do if so wat kind i like lisnin to rock while i play

I do not own an ipod. However, I have memorized the background music for the Sybervision DVD while Al Geiberger repeatedly swung his club in perfect balance, tempo, and rhythm. The heck with power and smashing the ball. I would rather execute a smooth, rhythmic swing. It is more consistent than one where I try to smash the ball.

[willman611]

i dont really like to listen to music while im actually playin on the course cause i like to hear the feedback of the shot. but i will listen to music when im warming up so i can get the feel of the club. and depending on what mood im in ill either listen to heavy rock or country music. the rock gets me pumped up but the country keeps me calm and focused.

[schapman]

I've taken to listening to my mp3 player at the range lately because I'm tired of having to hear other peoples loud conversations or cell phone chatter. The range near me doesn't really enforce the "Quiet Please" signs all over.
