    With sensitivity, I would like to know why anyone would want these. Why not just buy the underarmour long sleeve t shirt (or any lycra-type stretchy long sleeve)? I have played golf with one fellow who wore these, and spoke to a nice sales rep in the winter at Golf Town who wore these, and both guys were tugging at them all the time, and I would often be disturbed, or distracted by a strange "flash" of their upper arm when it became exposed.

    It reminded me a little of this



    I am possibly biased that the 2 I have seen in person perhaps didn't fit properly.

    Sak my good man,

    This is the exact reason I never used the ones my wife got me. I prompty returned them to GT, got a credit and got a 56* Spin Mill with the credit. Mind you I had to top up the credit with a buck or two from my own pockets seeing that the sleeves were $25/pair.

    Maybe it was just your Villegas-esque biceps that were too much for the arm warmers, Reza!

    Alas, you have me mistaken for someone else. I look much more like Adam Scott than Camillo Villegas.

    Just ask Gropper and Spackler. They have played enough rounds with me...

    they are useful on days when it's cold in the morning and then gets warmer as the rounds unfolds. I wear a short sleeve windjacket and a underarmor golf shirt underneath, so the arm warmers (lycra type sleeves) are nice to start the round and easy to take off whn it gets warmer...no need to take off all you layers to get to that underarmor long sleeve underneath!

    If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.

    Those are quite fabulous. Though, one wonders, with the way it covers the palms, would it affect how you swing?
