I have seen golfers(?) wearing logo tee shirts at executive course. I asked starter if it was ok. They just shrugged shoulders and said no big deal.
I remember when I moved here in 2014, you could not wear a tee shirt at Sarasota driving range. They would not give you range balls if no collar. Even small boys. Then that gradually went away.

Oh, thanks. I have a few of them, but never knew they had a special name. I always refer to them as button tee shirts. And I wouldn't wear them on the golf course.

There are some real jerks working in the starter shacks. After being a full-timer in The Villages for 10 years I am going to compile a list with pictures some day.

WOW! With all the worlds problems... golf attire.
I think if it's anything, it's a reason to stay away from the pasture pool.

Come on people. Let's just play the game of golfing. Yes, even wearing jeans while golfing is allowed here in The Villages!

The dress code is ridiculous. Wear clothing that respects the game. A guy I golf with wears jeans, he’s fine. He also wears old cargo shorts with paint stains and an old polo shirt that he’s worn for yard work for years, he’s fine. My wife purchases a beautiful golf outfit from a sporting goods store. It has a popular golf logo in it. “You can’t wear that top, the straps are too narrow.”Seriously???!!

When golfing ( in The Villages) don’t dress like a slob, leave the tee shirts and jogging shorts at home! And when having your grandchildren with you, have them wear proper golf attire ( Country Club Style) !

I admit I am an old dinosaur.
But.
I believe in the dress code.
Collared shirts, no denim, and tailored shorts for golf.
When going out to dinner in evening wear a shirt and trousers, not dressed as if for a day at the beach.
Even Presidents and prime ministers addressing the nation without a suit and tie on.
Swearing when ladies are present.
If you pander to the lowest common denominator, why expect any respect from those around you.
Be different.
Show a bit of style and class!

So you're saying that if one wears a tank top then they beat their wife? I find this post offensive, stereotypical, inflammatory and prejudice!

It’s what a worn out tee shirt collar looks like. Hideous

In my opinion, dressing appropriately shows respect for the game, a long honored tradition, and respect towards your fellow golfers. I am not sure why if someone didn’t want to do either, would want to play golf on a Village’s golf course?
