Why do golfers wear shorts when it’s hot out?

The average golfer is opting for shorts when it’s hot out because it’s more comfortable despite the advances in technology with golf pants.

What are the different types of shorts for golf?

When choosing shorts for golfing, you will come across several styles, including cargo golf shorts and tailored golf shorts. Tailored golf shorts are made using chino-style fabric with a conventional waistband, including belt loops and conventional hip pockets, as opposed to cargo or patch pockets.

How long should my golf shorts be?

As a rule of thumb, tailored shorts should be worn with the hem no more than 4 inches above or below the knee. Like pants, the length of your golf shorts is measured along the inseam. The perfect length for men less than 5’5″ is 7″. If you are less than 5’5″ or just want to show a little more thigh, you might want to wear 5″ shorts instead.

Where is the “scorecard pocket” on golf pants?

I own two pairs of golf pants that are even more annoying. Both pairs have a “scorecard pocket,” which is just inside the right-hand rear pocket and is almost exactly the same size.
