Golf Apparel -- The Start Of Good Golf Etiquette
Many of us recall old movie images of golfers in plaid pants, sweater vests, billed caps, and other stereotypical apparel of golfing lore. While clothing on golf courses has changed over the years, proper golf apparel is still expected. And the greater the prestige of the golf club, the greater the expectation you will abide by their dress code.
Most clubs and courses, even the public ones, require that golfers follow a dress code. The most common rule is the collared shirt. Many courses require long pants, not jeans, and golf shoes.

Nike Club Shoe Tote Golf Bag Black-SilverReviewsIf you're looking for a basic, but well constructed, shoe tote, I'd recommend this Nike product. It pretty much does what you'd expect and can easily handle a size 13 shoe, for those freakishly large golfers. Average Rating: |

Men's Nike Air Max Rejuvenate Golf ShoesReviewsLive in Alaska, so they haven't been worn outside yet. Using them on inside screen golf to break them in, which means limited walking. Amazingly after only three times these are some of the most comfortable golf shoes I've owned. I was concerned about a long break-in period - but, that concern has vanished. Very nice - and would very much recommend them to others! Thanks. I bought these for my dad, an avid golfer, and he loves them. They are very comfortable. Average Rating: |

5 Minutes Early Is Late
When it comes to actually starting your game, the primary rule of etiquette is to show up on schedule for your tee time. That means you will have already done everything else in preparation for the start of the golf game. You'll need time to park your car, warm up, practice, buy balls, change, and pick up a cart. Being early is a matter of consideration for others.
Leave Cell Phones In The Real World
The exclusion of cell phones from golf apparel is another common courtesy on the links. Cell phones should be left in your car or locker. If you do need to bring 1 onto the course for emergencies, keep it turned off.
When you're on the course, you'll need to understand how the other golfers in your group want to play. Some let the best score tee off on the next hole, while others let whoever is ready tee off first. You can offend players by not following their rules, even if their rules are, from your perspective, wrong.
Time-Honored Conventions Make Golfing Unique
An obsession with quiet is another characteristic for which golfers are known. Like most traditions, this one is based on necessity. When your object is to hit a small object with a long pole, you need all of your concentration. Even when golfing with friends, respect the fundamental rule of keeping quiet during shots, and standing out of the direct line of vision.
Today's golfing rules of etiquette can seem archaic -- a throwback to days of old. They harken back to a slower paced time when consideration for others was perhaps easier. In the 21st century, golfing provides us a time away from the bustle of everyday living. Though golf is highly competitive, it is, nonetheless, a gentleman's -- and gentlewoman's -- game.
