There are about 300 recesses on one golf ball, and thanks to them, the ball flies three times farther than a smooth one. ... Balls of the same size...

...minigolf is not always easy. I was almost not allowed to play this weekend
since my t-shirt was the old edition from my club, I had no clue it made a
difference as long it was the official t-shirt, but it did. Then I also
practiced for a while without any club dress, bad bad boy!

When I played the PPA Nationals in 2004 I had to buy official PPA t-shirts
to be allowed to practice and participate in the tourney. There was also a
discussion around my shoes, they were allowed in the end after some
argumentation with the tourney officials.

For the US Masters I have seen (and worn a few of'em...) swimming googles,
swimming trunks, bare foot, bare chest, crocs etc.

anyway, In my opinion you can and should enforce what clothes and shoes we
wear while playing competitive minigolf, if we want to be looked upon as a
professional sport.

The problem is that personal taste differs substantially on what is ok and
what is not.

I prefer low cut sneakers
I prefer polo shirts, private brands
I prefer jeans
I prefer sun glasses

I prefer not to see bare asses, worn out shoes, t-shirts with holes, golf
shoes, tank tops, bare foot people, ugly jogging dresses etc.

on the minigolf course that is....

I might disagree with the bare asses issue. It all depends on who's ass is bare.

Hans, We got the shirt rule changed in the PPA. Now any shirt with a collar; no booze, tobacco or drug references. I think we can be comfortable and still look professional.

I hope that nobody plays in golf shoes, if they have the metal spikes. Pity that you didn't include a sample photo of the bare... whatever it was. Volleyball vs. beachvolley...

I get your point though I disagree at the bare asses issue. Some of them I would stare at all the time!!! Even at minigolf courses!!!

But I guess this is not the appropriate comment to post.
As minigolf is usually seen more as a leisure sport, the outfit of the players is important to give a more professional and serious image. And we know we couldn't leave it to the players preferences. There have to be rules.
