Maybe I'm showing my age, but I wouldn't be caught dead in a golf shirt. ;)
Before I moved to Washington, DC I didn't even own a long sleeve shirt!  
Seriously, I don't think there must be a choice between the two. Both
should be offered, but it is obviously cheaper to get T-shirts printed up
then embroidered golf shirts made. Since Matthew Patton came up with the
cash from his own pocket, I guess it was an easy choice for him to make.
This brings me to a question.  Of course nobody wants to pay for
something that doesn't exist, and I'm also guessing that nobody wants to take
a risk on buying a large quantity of shirts unless they will sell, so is
there some middle ground as to advance orders and out of pocket
expenses?
