Winter Golfing Tips

It may not get as cold here in Arizona as other states in the winter, but it can still feel chilly! Golfers often want to enjoy their sport year-round and the following winter golfing tips can help you stay warm even when the temperatures dip.

Wear Layers

Layering up can make all the difference. It's better to wear multiple thin layers that trap heat instead of just one thick layer. Focus on winter-friendly materials, such as wool or synthetic fabrics.

It's also helpful to focus on outer layers that are windproof. They'll help block out the wind chill that is often in the winter.

Stay Hydrated

Dehydration can be more common during winter months, so it’s important to drink plenty of water. You can even pack warm beverages in a thermos to stay hydrated and stay warm.

Use Hand and Toe Warmers

Hand and toe warmers are a great winter golfing essential. They provide hours of warmth and can be placed in your gloves, shoes, or even pockets. These little packets of heat can make a big difference when the cold winter winds start blowing.

Don't Forget Sun Protection

Even though it's wintertime, don't forget the sun protection! You'll still need to protect your skin from the harsh Arizona sun.

Conduct a Golf Cart Pre-Inspection

Cold weather can affect how well your golf cart performs. For example, cold temperatures can change the golf cart's tire air pressure, so you'll want to measure the air pressure and adjust as needed. Give your golf cart a quick inspection before your golfing trip and make sure it's in good condition despite the cold.
