Difficult to read greens with shades?

[Focker Singh]

How many of you wear your sunglasses while putting? I find that it is more difficult to read the greens with them on. I will wear them for any other shot except for putting. Do I just have bad sunglasses not suitable for golf or do I need my eyes checked?

No you dont need to get them checked.:D

I used to wear them all the time except for putting. Now I just dont wear them at all.:cool:

I've found it almost impossible with my cheap sunglasses, and I'm too cheap to buy anything more than about $50. I've also found that the frames tend to get a bit distracting too. I'd really like to get a decent pair of wrap arounds, but I just can't bring myself to spend the money.

IMO get new glasses. Wasn't there a post on here not too long ago about this?

I picked up a pair of Oakley Half Jacket XLJ's with polarized glasses and use them for golf all the time. I leave them on for putting and have no problems with them whatsoever. The polarized lenses were great this weekend with the early morning glare coming off the wet grass. Basically there was no glare so finding balls in the deeper rough was pretty easy. It wasn't untill I took my glasses off until I realized how much of a difference they were making.
