Those Nike collarless polo shirts

How do you feel about female golfers who pretty much universally have their tops untucked? Not being sarcastic, does that annoy or because it is standard does it not register?

Doesn't bother me one iota to be honest. It's just like them wearing a blouse.
It's like them wearing sleeveless tops. Doesn't look odd, but would on a man!
It's just with men it smacks of laziness and just looks plain scruffy!

Appreciate what you are saying Robin, but I personally find un-tucked golf shirts abhorrent, whether they are designed to be worn like that or not.
As far as the bladed collar shirts are concerned, I quite like them myself and would wear one. I was just asking a general question as I know some clubs (mine included) state collared shirts in their dress code.
But like I say, I cannot abide un-tucked shirts on a golf course. It's one of the very few things that raises my hackles and I will always point it out to my playing partners, whoever they might be.

This was raised at a recent mens committee meeting at my club. One bloke, big belly, wears his top untucked and asked what the ruling was. We assumed it was not allowed but we were advised that the owner, we are owned by a person not the members, had stated that we were an equality club and if women were allowed to wear shirts untucked, so were men.

I find your attitude completely mad. I would never willingly tuck my shirt in to play golf. I happily wear the collared shirt and tailored trousers/shorts with pride but I also want to be comfortable and moving free and easily when I'm swinging the club. The polo shirts I have are not overly long so I would be forever tucking it back in when it comes out, and I can do without that hassle. You say it's laziness when it's simply a choice of how to dress. That's like saying parting your hair the other side is laziness.

We had this discussion at our club .
women often dress in ways that most men would not get away with " not mini skirts"
Blouse with no sleeves and no collar.
Trainer type socks.
Shirts when worn with collar not tucked in.

I think the ladies look good like this and would not want to stop them dressing as they wish , but in a equal opportunity club these dress codes should be available to male members as well.

Its like the collar and tie thing women don't have to wear them but we do.?

This is dictating to genders which I thought was illegal now.

I think some people are put off joining clubs because of the dress codes .

But I always try to look smart on the course that's my way , but I think anyone should be able to dress as they please .

Just a serious q why were jeans banned at most clubs was it to keep the working classes out.?
Or is there another reason.

I don't think initially Jeans themselves were banned, I believe historically Golf Clubs banned "working clothes" and denim was seen as work wear and therefore not allowed.
