Mr. 82 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 In the summer I wear white socks, but in the winter, when my shoes are black, I wear black socks. This has to be the dumbest thing I've ever read. Even by golf course standards of dress codes, this one has me just shaking my head at the stupidity of it all.

Trout Bum 1 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I was reading that earlier wondering how in the heck that's a rule, golf has some crazy rules but for a club to do this is ridiculous.

All socks are also made by Kentwool and nothing else will I golf in. This "rule" from this club is ridiculous IMHO, though until they change it it is their prerogative to enforce if they so choose.
