Do golf shoes really matter?
My wife, who’s tired of me bringing home a new pair every week, would argue that they don’t make a difference.
However, I’m of the opinion that a good pair of golf shoes, like a properly fitted club, can be a real help to your game. But that’s coming from someone who lives and breathes golf shoes every single day. It’s my job to test and review shoes.
For the everyday golfer, though, the golf shoe may not be seen as a legitimate tool with which they can improve their game. That’s my hunch, anyway. Which side of the fence do you sit on?
I asked 100 golfers if golf shoes really matter. Here are my findings.
There are few songs that hit me in the feels quite like “God Bless the USA”. There’s just something about that patriotic anthem that makes me feel like I’m a small part of something greater than myself.
Each time it comes on, I take an opportunity to reflect on the men and women who put on the uniform. I’m extremely grateful for them and all they do.
PUMA, too, is grateful for military veterans. They show their gratitude each year by teaming up with VOLITION AMERICA for a red, white and blue apparel collection.
As in years past, some proceeds from the collection will be donated to the Folds of Honor Foundation. This years’ PUMA x VOLITION AMERICA plays on the patriotic theme with some unique camo patterns, a few fun prints, and my favorite; a bald Eagle motif.
Yeah, the eagle looks pretty darn cool.
Only a few things are absolutely mandatory for a loop around the golf course: clubs, bag, balls and tees. However, there are accessories so compulsory that they might as well be part of the official golf uniform. Chief among these is the golf hat. Virtually every player wears one from juniors all the way up through the best of the best on the PGA Tour (but they get paid for it).
The best golf hats serve many functions so it’s no surprise they’re ubiquitous in the modern game. Obviously, the main purpose of a hat is to protect your head and eyes from the sun’s harsh rays and the occasional unexpected downpour but, in today’s world, they’re much more than utilitarian. A golf hat can be a style flex, an opportunity to rep your favorite brand, your favorite team or the finishing touch on your go-to golfing outfit.
In the end, a golf hat has to check a few essential boxes but, beyond that, it can make whatever kind of statement you want. If it’s comfortable on your head, makes you feel good and helps you focus on your game then it’s a perfect accessory.
The Best Golf Hats
Melin
There’s nothing quite like a Melin hat. With a variety of models to hit any head size and shape, Melin’s premium headwear is worth the splurge. Seriously, once you try one you’ll never go back.
lululemon
Whether you want a lightweight running hat or something a little more traditional, lululemon has you covered. Are minimalist designs and muted color schemes your thing? You’ll be hard pressed to find something more sleek and wearable than lululemon.
Everyone has heard of “ready golf” but how many of us actually know what it is and practice it? You may think you do but do you, really?
Understanding Ready Golf
Ready golf is a departure from traditional golf in the sense that it is more flexible and more efficient. It’s about speeding up the game in an organized, logical and safe fashion.
Key Principles
Play When Ready: Rather than playing the traditional “who’s away” (the player furthest from the hole goes first), ready golf encourages players to proceed with their shot as soon as they are prepared and their fellow players are aware they are doing so.
Advance To Your Ball: If you are able to safely move to your ball without interfering or interrupting your playing partners, do so. Start visualizing your next shot and be ready when you arrive at your ball.
Keep Pace Of Play: Keep up with the group in front of you. You want to be courteous and allow them to play at normal speed but remain just behind them. If you are finding yourself falling behind, pick up your ball after double par and move to the next tee.
