How to dress for Golf?

[RedBeard]

I'll be in the Melbourne area for a few days, which is where my Father-In-Law and I should be playing golf. I should probably say playing at golf, as I don't get out very often, maybe once every couple of years or so. Mostly, I'll just be out there to have fun

Well, if anyone in the Melbourne area sees a funny looking guy in a Clarke Tartan USAK Casual, doing very badly at golf, but much better at the drinking that comes afterwards, that'll probably be me

HAHA, you're describing my golf game there!

I played 4 rounds in a row last spring kilted. I went ahead and wore the small socks with golf shoes - changed back into my Doc Martins and scrunched socks for the 19th hole. Only problem the sporran could lead to is if it throws off your swing. Of course, I am a duffer, so it wasn't enough of an excuse for me

Sorry, can't help out at all here. Not old enough to play golf.

I have a set of clubs upstairs, don't use them.

My mom once said I shouldn't wear a kilt because I am not a member of a group or Scottish. (I am though, descended from her line which has Gordons, and more, in it.)

Though, makes me think of a 'snappy answer' being, "yeah I wear kilts because I like to golf. I don't play bagpipes because I just play mini-golf."

I wear a sporran when I golf kilted. I just spin it to my right hip when I swing. I feel like it's less in the way on my trailing hip. (Of course, I'm a lousy golfer so your results may vary.)

Personaly, when I play I use one of Calvscouts sporran adapters & fasten the sporran directly to my belt on the right side & I push the socks down with no flashes.

I only play golf with empty pocket (except for tees and extra golf balls), so I can't imagine having the sporran on me during play. I, too, would hang it on the bag in the same manner in which I hang a catch-all bag there for pocket stuff.

But, I just never wear a kilt without hose, so it's up to you. Of course, the temps in Florida are reall special, especially if you play in the summer, so you'll have to decide what to do about your socks.

Just send us a picture.

I've played gold in a kilt once. I wore the ankle socks with my golf shoes and no sporran. I think of it my going kilted near the beach or pool. Kilt and flip-flops....no hose....but that could be me. Typically, I save the kilt for the 19th hole, rather than the course.
