The wrong people are always wearing the short golf shorts, like when I was a lifeguard and the wrong people always showed up in a Speedo.
My only son who owns golf shorts wears them to bars but golfs in his cargo shorts.

It all has to do with the stretchy material, breath-ability, last longer (polyester vs cotton), no silly pockets, attractive women don't laugh at you, should I keep going?
On the "rugged" material piece... If you are worried about this, why aren't you just wearing denim?
They're obviously supporting the brave men in our military who defeated the closest thing to pure evil the world's ever seen in humanized form (Hitler) thanks to the contributions of Iowa State University and cargo shorts! You don't have to like cargo shorts, America or the Cyclones. You can also go live in North Korea or Venezuela.
If you were married to MacGyver that would all make perfect sense.
I think we're all united in our distaste for jorts.
Don't you go trying to find common ground. This is the internet!
He thinks he’s MacGyver but not even close. Granted my boys leave the weirdest stuff in their pockets, the husband usual leaves his pocket knife, receipts, or keys.
From a purely utilitarian standpoint, this actually makes sense. Is this the son that's super-smart, is getting his PHD and plays D&D with his nerdy roommates?The wrong people are always wearing the short golf shorts, like when I was a lifeguard and the wrong people always showed up in a Speedo.

Personally, I've found cargo shorts and golf shorts have their place. Oddly enough, I prefer to wear cargo shorts on the golf course - I like the extra pockets to carry golf balls for mulligans and drops, plus tees and a marker and all that good stuff.
And I think golf shorts are just about right for casual social events or going out to dinner. They're just a tad bit nicer looking than the cargos.

Last time I went to the airport, I was stopped at security because there was a pocket knife with a 1.5" blade in my backpack. They confiscated it and there went the money I'd saved by flying Spirit.

The boy is a genius.
No, he wears cargo shorts or basketball shorts.
This is the aerospace engineer. He is also smart but just wears practical clothing when he needs to.
Now cycloneG's argument is starting to make sense. He's such a good golfer that he doesn't need to take mulligans or need extra balls. In fact, he probably doesn't have any balls at all.
Hey now, let's keep this civil.
He had to take his back to the car at Hoover Dam because he was gonna somehow take the whole thing down with a Swiss Army knife.
I don't know where he golfs, so I'll concede that maybe it's a dress code thing. If I got invited to play at some of the private courses or country clubs in the area I'd probably go with the golf shorts as a courtesy. But I usually play the lowly municipal courses where it's pretty much anything goes.
Only on CF could a thread about cargo shorts go 24 pages.
Yeah that is what my kids do. They always return with more expensive golf balls they find in the weeds and stick in the cargo pockets.
