This week on "Sticks Together," we focus on the courtesies and soft rules that aren't officially written but are crucial for smooth gameplay. These include where to park the golf cart relative to the green and how to move efficiently on the course. Unwritten rules can cause confusion for new players, but it's important to learn and understand them to avoid awkward situations on the course.

We transition to a lighter topic—our preferences for golf shoes. Stacey shares her newfound fondness for FootJoy shoes and a recent addition of Skechers to her collection. Slade, a self-proclaimed shoe enthusiast, discusses his preference for brands like Ekko, Adidas, and Puma, highlighting the importance of comfort and structure, especially for someone with a larger foot.

Finally, we dive into our warm-up routines. Slade details his meticulous process of stretching, putting, and hitting a few balls to get into the rhythm of the game. Stacey shares her simpler routine, which focuses on a few key clubs and a brief short game session. We both agree that having a routine, even if it's brief, helps set the tone for a better game.

In conclusion, we encourage golfers, especially newcomers, to ask questions and seek guidance on the courtesies of golf to enhance their experience. We also highlight the importance of finding a warm-up routine that suits individual needs and sticking to it for consistency on the course.
