Golf is a prestigious and classy game, which is why it requires their participants to wear the proper attire. Usually dress pants, a golf shirt, and golf shoes are required to enter the golf course. Not only is it important to wear this type of shirt in order to be able to play at the course, but the comfort level of a golf shirt is key. Normally when a person thinks of a polo shirt, they think of a heavy cotton shirt. This idea brings a negative connotation about golf shirts because the ones that are being made today are different than that of twenty years ago.

Golf shirts, also known as polo shirts, are a necessity when you're out on the links. These shirts come in all different shapes, sizes and materials. There are various brands that produce these types of shirts, including: Nike, Callaway, Izod, Adidas, Ping, Nautica and many more. There are also various types of styles, such as tall, long sleeve, short sleeve, stretch fit, and trimmed; not to be forgotten is whether you would like a pocket, or no pocket on your golf shirt. These shirts are available to both men and women, and are tailored to the body type of the specified gender.

Today, there are companies such as Nike releasing a lighter and more comfortable shirt to wear while golfing. Known as, "Dri-FIT", these polo shirts are similar to the material that Under Armour uses. The hype over this type of shirt is that it's lighter. Having a lighter shirt helps your golf game because you aren't sweating as much while you're out in the heat, and you don't feel restricted, which makes it easier to get a full range of motion when teeing off. If you are wearing a tight, heavy cotton shirt the chances are that you aren't playing your best round of golf because you feel constricted. With a light shirt, you avoid dehydration and are able to move freely, thus leading to a lower score after a round of eighteen holes. That's not to say that if you buy one of these shirts that you will shoot a lower score, but comfort is an important factor during the game of golf.
