Turning into my father

I played today and made the mistake of saying to one of my playing partners that I liked his new 'slacks' - needless to say I was ribbed for this for the duration of the round. I am 38 and seem to alarmingly be turning into my father (I even considered buying a pair of cream chinos the other day, before snapping out of it and getting a new pair of jeans) - my question is this; I like the idea of ditching my golf caps and wearing a 'trilby' when playing (a 'trendy' one) - am I too young to do so as I've always associated them with 'old' people? (and/or do I need help?).

Thanks to William Hunt and the Trilby Tour I think they are rather trendy these days!

i'm the same, have the same tolerance as my dad, which some days is not much. atm my golf is arguably better, my h'cap is going southwards but my dads is heading north,

I too am becoming increasling like my dad and at 47 have definitely become a 'grumpy'. Having said that dad has just come home after 6 weeks in hospital and is more cantankerous than ever; attaining new levels that I hope I never get near.On the subject of hats, a lad at work has a cool Kangol cap, might be worth looking at, certainly not 'old man' gear - could go well with your curly hair and cigar Darren!
