Golf Games Have Been Lost And Won Because Of Sunglasses

Incredible as it sounds, the design of your golf glasses can be a determining factor for the games outcome. That is not a far fetched claim since players rely on their eyes to guide their arms in taking the right angle for their swing and for the right amount of force on their swing. But more than just giving an accurate visual of the environment, the overall feeling that you get from your sunglasses put you in a bad or good conditions for winning the game.

Your sunglasses should be designed to provide maximum protection for your eyes. This necessity becomes critical if you are playing the game when heat peaks in summer. Besides the delayed effects of ultraviolet exposure, there are also immediate effects of ultraviolet on the body. These effects are focused on the eyes themselves if they get 'sun burnt.'

Your golf glasses should provide enough shade without being too dim. In this matter, the specific tint of the glasses can also make or break your game.

The colors that are usually recommended for golf sunglasses tints are either brown or gray. These are the colors that do not absorb or let through harmful color spectra from the sun. Gray is not generally preferred by golfers themselves because the color is too dark and flattens the environment out. Use light shades of orange or reddish brown for sunglasses.

Those recommendations coincide with the feedback from golf players themselves who noticed that they tend to be come less exhausted with the use of light shades of amber or citrus on their tints. Those colors are also conducive for distinguishing the green portion of the landscape.

Because light coming from the side of the face can be distracting to the golfer, he should look for glasses that have wide arms to keep out the glare from his sides. And it isn't just for that obvious purpose that wide sunglasses arms are useful. Because players are advised to concentrate on the green, the wide sides of spectacles should help him do that by obscuring any on-lookers who may be staring at his sides.

The design of the glasses should make it perch on the nose comfortably and its arms should help it stay there without exerting undue pressure on the temples. Discomfort in any part of his body can distract the player from his game

Golf players using bifocals have to bend their heads down a little lower because the normal bending position makes the reading portion of the bifocals interfere with their vision. That is no longer such a big problem today because technology has come up with stick-able reading lenses that can be fixed on sunglasses lenses to make them good for both long-distance viewing and reading purposes. People call them 'stick-on' lenses because they can be firmly attached to the tinted glasses. They may also be pealed off after the game and re-used.
