I was reading one of those ‘Golfing for Women’ magazines the other week and began wondering where the women live, who wear the golf attire modeled in women’s golfing magazines? I’ve never seen women, not even the professionals, who would dress in such expensive and outrageous clothing.
It’s so simple to spend tons of money kitting yourself out for the sport of golf. Think about hats, sunglasses, gloves, shirts, shorts, socks, windsheeters and shoes, and it is obvious that the costs add up very quickly, even if you do your shopping at cheap online sales. Then you have to factor in the cost of clubs, balls, bag, cart and fees and you have to play a round of golf really quite frequently to keep the “CPU” (cost per use) down to a tolerable level.
One half-page glossy advert showed a beautiful young ‘golfing lady’ in really tiny hot-pants (like that’s permitted on golfing greens!) that cost nearly $300, a golf shirt at almost $600, a jacket by Ralph Lauren at almost $200 and two-toned Utuser shoes costing $400 plus.
That comes to almost $1,500! I know that I could never hope to get the CPU on that outfit down to anywhere near a normal limit in my golfing lifetime! Don’t misunderstand me – I love clothes and I really love shoes, but could never afford, nor even want, golf shoes or pants that cost as much as a lot of people’s weekly wages.
OK, you need comfy golfing shoes that don’t look like an old pair of wooden clogs, but honestly, you will be able to find less expensive and yet still trendy golfing shoes.
I have bought a couple of very stylish golfing outfits, even though none of them are famous brand names. If I were to total up the cost of all of those articles of clothing, it would not add up to the cost of a Tse golf shirt. Personally, I would rather have a few trendy outfits than one that is priced way too much.
If I were to wear a $1,500 set of golfing attire to play golf in, I would just be too worried about getting it grubby or sweating in it to enjoy a proper game of golf.
