Any better lens out there.

I don’t know. Think they are new.

Just googled best glasses for golf and this kept coming up. Just looking for first hand experience.

OP my buddy has them and to me they are no better than any other quality polarized sun glasses. However, my buddy swears by them.

Personally, I like my costas better.

I never had trouble following the ball till about a year ago. Now, when I'm paying alone, sometimes I have no idea where my drive went. Old age stinks.

Congrats!

The “Prizm” refers to the lenses and not the frames. You can get the Prizm golf lens in several different Oakley frames. Also, the Prizm golf lens comes either polarized or non-polarized.

I have enjoyed the regular Prizm lens for golf as it seems to help with the different shades of green. I recently bought a set of replacement Prizm baseball lens for an old flak jacket frame as they are supposed to be a little better in the late afternoon sun.

Not sure if you are going for style or function, but I recommend the Prizm lens for golf. As a matter of full disclosure, I’ve been an Oakley fan for several years and have not tried any other brands such as Costas.

I've got Prizm polarized in my regular sunglasses, and these lenses, to me, seem much better than the pair of regular Ray-Ban polarized I have.

No idea about golf though, as I don't wear sunglasses when I play.

i wear them ... they do a good job of knocking down sunlight while reducing some of the glare from the course and making the contrast stand out a little better ... the ones specifically identified as 'golf' are nonpolarized, i believe ... at least they are not advertised as 'polarized' like other oakley products ...
