Hot Golf
Apart from the obvious clubs, balls and jerseys, there are several things that everyone should take to improve your golf experience:
1. Cream Solar - We recommend maintaining sunscreen in a pocket easily accessible from the bag and use it. At least 30 SPF.
2. Extra Score Card "If you are a member or just play on a regular route, take a couple of extra scorecards and pencils (erasers optional). There are times when you miss a card in the clubhouse and can not or can already be in your car if you use a car.
3. First Kit Care-No need fancy or bulky. Slip a little flexible fabric bandages, a roll of white adhesive tape, gauze or two, some wipes antiseptics, ibuprofen or aspirin, and any thing you may need antacid (personal Benadryl for bee stings, etc..) Place these items in a bag type plastic slide and leave the bag in your way.
4. "A waterproof rain suit is optional, but This could really make your golf experience more enjoyable if you are caught in heavy rain. If no rain suit and umbrella, at least.
5. Rangefinder/GPS- no explanation needed here.
6. Glove-If you are caught in the rain or the hot and humid, with a pair of gloves alternative employment is much better than using a golf glove wet all day. You can set the Velcro on the back of glove around a handle or handle of your golf bag for drying.
7. Folding Cup These can be found in the camping section of most department stores and probably very useful. It can be used for drinking and many have a small storage box built into the lid. Stick in your bag and you can thank me more tonight.
8. Snacks-As you like, but I prefer things like granola bars or fruit as a resistant apple. REMEMBER to take snacks consumed and the packaging of their bag. You'll have a bag full of ants and other insects or rotting fruit if you forget.
9. Permanent marker "No point into an argument with his friends play golf. It only takes a second to make an identification mark on his ball. I have two or three colors.
10. Extra laces "It is a question that is often overlooked, but think about it. If you break a string of golf shoes, it will be a long day of discomfort, slippage of the heel and foot blisters covered. Finally, a pair of shoelaces could save a lot of extra shots.
11. Glasses repair kit "You never know when you may be happy to have this, but when the time comes, he will. Even if you wear glasses, sunglasses break too. Most kits include a screwdriver, extra screws and a magnifying glass. If you wear contact lenses, put something in your bag in case you lose one.
12. Cloth or paper towels are elements found many uses. Or something in a plastic bag or obtain tissue boxes (my wife carries in her bag of them) sold in your local drug store.
13. Coolie Cup-If you live in a hot region like me, it is priceless. I prefer the thin neoprene style because they fit into the cupholders in a basket and throw better.
14. Business cards, you know many people in golf and you can find something new or potential partner. Maybe you have to type a telephone number on the back for their own use.
15. Multi-Tool-If you wear one in your bag, you or your golf buddies will find many applications for it. There are many different types that have a variety of tools in them. Find what works best for you.
16. Cell phone-Hold on! I agree that cell phones can be very annoying on the links, but have valuable uses. If the phone is switched off or set to vibrate only no inconvenience to players. There may be times when you need an embargo. And if someone in your group having a heart attack or other threats of life problem? What if a question of rules during a tournament? What happens if a family emergency? These and other reasons is why I am not opposed to cell phones on the golf course, always used against other players.
You may already have several of these items in your bag and there may be significant factors were ignored, but I hope there is a gold nugget or two here, you can use.
