Whether you are looking for a Sixpence in Norway, a Cheese-cutter in New Zealand and Canada, a Dai cap in Wales, or a Scally cap in North America, what you are really looking for is a flat cap, or a newsboy cap. Other names that have been attributed to newsboy caps include: bunnet, derby, driving cap, Gatsby cap, Golf cap, Hogans cap, Ivy Cap, Scone bunnet, and a Windsor cap. Regardless of the name, however, the basic shape and style of the newsboy cap is the same. A newsboy cap is a flat, gently rounded cap. It has a small brim in the front with a stiffer peak in the back. Usually the material

used to construct a newsboy cap is tweed or wool, but they have often been made of leather, vinyl and suede as well. The style of the newsboy cap has been dated as far back as the 14th Century in England where it was often worn by working class men. The style eventually became considered to be casual country wear that was worn by wealthy English men during leisure activities which led to the cap being known as a gold cap.

Golf clothing should not just be stylish; most important, it needs to be comfortable and functional. There are no specific rules relating to general dress on the course, although most private clubs and country clubs do have stringent standards. Trainers, denim jeans, shirts without collars, short shorts and sleeveless shirts for men are generally forbidden. Some clubs insist that men wear long socks with shorts. Others forbid ladies in the clubhouse in shorts or even trousers. Dress codes vary from country to country and club to club. Be prepared to respect them.

While most golfers spend a great deal of money on their golf wear, not every golfer spends enough money on their golf outerwear. This is strange because most local golf courses are located in climates that have less than perfect conditions throughout most of the year. If you are a serious golfer and you don t want to let rain or wind interrupt your game, then you may want to spend some time and money shopping for the correct golf outerwear.

The first piece of clothing that you need to shop for is a warm layering piece. Pull-on sweaters and cardigans are great options. They can easily be tied around your waist when the sun is out and then

easily slipped on over your head when the weather turns chilly. Cashmere is a good material to look for in a sweater no matter what type of climate you play in.
