Speaking softly on the links is understandable, but boring clothes is not the same thing. Tennis whites have been replaced by designer outfits, so why not follow the trend with golf pants?

Scott Woodworth and his "bad" golf fashion business, Loudmouth Golf, are all about making golfing fun. Loudmouth Golf specializes in "bad" golf pants for men.

"The average golfer is too serious these days. The clothes they wear, khakis with a black golf shirt, lacks any creativity, individuality, and most of all, fun," says Woodworth. "Golfing is actually losing popularity because many players find the game and the golf courses too difficult and not much fun."

Several celebrities sport Woodworth's slightly obnoxious fashions. KNBR sports talk host and ex-NBA player Tom Tolbert wore bright yellow pants with polka dots at the nationally-televised American Century Celebrity Golf Tournament in Lake Tahoe last year. Dan Patrick from ESPN's Sport Center wears Loudmouth Golf pants.

Woodworth's motto "Play Loud" and have "Fun" may be something that the golf industry needs to consider to attract and retain players.
