Would some one go to a driving range and practice in a denim jacket? I have used a picture of a world famous singer songwriter and international style icon, Shakin Stevens, to model one such jacket

Those of a certain age will assoiciate these jackets with rockers, and punks, but whatever music you like, I can assure you they are impossible to swing a golf club in.

Anyway, the very fact someone turned up in one annoyed me so much I went home. Just watching him struggling like mad just totally put me off. What a penus. I am obsessed with having t-shirts that fit properly, I hate feeling any tug on my armpits on the downswing, I know I have OCD but still, denim?

Wow, that it annoyed you enough that this guy was trying to swing in a denim jacket is beyond me.

Id just chuckle at him and go about my practise...:laugh:

So, I guess you wouldn't like my denim thong, huh dave?

I agree with you, though...why in the world would you try to swing a club in a denim jacket?

Piper, slight aside...guy walked in where I was eating lunch with a NCWC sweatshirt on. Saw it and told my wife (who went to WVWC, btw) that I knew one of the guys on their golf team.

That was today? Was it an NCWC, or an NCWC Golf?

I think like half the student body has some sort of NCWC shirt...:laugh:. Don't know what the hell they're so proud of...

Just NCWC. It was actually a middle aged man (mid/upper 50's)...might have a son/daughter there.

I'm more worried about why you have that Shakin' Stevens calendar.

That was my only thought too.

I might have my wife cut up an old pair of blue jeans & make some headcovers for my clubs, if she adds tassles to the tops that would be so hot.

What some folks wear out on the course/driving range just baffles me. I recently saw a pic of these guys playing golf in blue jeans and gym socks! And then another after round photo where they were wearing denim shorts, cut-off t-shirts, and (get this) velcro closure shoes!


:laugh:
