Golf is a lifetime game that, with the right equipment, can be enjoyed even when the temperature drops. This selection can help you get more out of every day on the greens.
Your Private Course
Carl’s Place DIY Golf Simulator
$9,317.74, Carlofet.com
For less than the cost of a pool, imagine having 24/7 access to a private course with perfect weather, where you can hit drives for as long as you want. That’s the idea of this system, which lets you work on your swing or entertain the whole family with fun games. The system consists of a projector, screen, and enclosure that can be quickly assembled, or disassembled to bring it to a new home.
Get a Grip
FootJoy StaSof Winter Golf Gloves
$50, FootJoy.com
Your grip won’t suffer on chilly days when your hands are protected by these gloves crafted of supple APL® leather. The design provides enhanced perspiration resistance to keep hands dry and ensures flexibility as the temperature drops. The high-tech engineered fleece on the backside of the glove keeps the whole hand warm. Sold in pairs, to keep both hands warm.
Stay Toasty
G-Tech Heated Hand Warmer Sport 3.0
$165, GetGTech.com
Worn by the U.S. and European Ryder Cup teams, who know that warm, limber hands are critical for a proper golf swing, this hand warmer strapped to the player’s waist keeps hands toasty for up to 12 hours. Its long-lasting battery has a choice of three settings and is snuggled in a soft fleece lining surrounded by a water-repelling exterior. Taking mittens on and off is a thing of the past.
Snug as a Bug
Classic Accessories Fairway Golf Cart Seat Blanket
$38.95, ClassicAccessories.com
Nothing is as jarring as sitting on a chilly vinyl seat on a cold day, making this blanket a must-have. The quilted top is paired with plush fleece backing to provide warmth and comfort during cold weather, while the wipe-clean, water-resistant material protects seats from stains and spills. It does double duty as a lap blanket, and in the summer, it will keep legs from being scorched by hot seats.
Go the Distance
$24.99, CallawayGolf.com
Air density increases as air temperatures drop, meaning a golf ball won’t travel as far in cold weather when compared to warm conditions. To get that distance back, many pros suggest low-compression Callaway Supersoft golf balls. They’re renowned for delivering exceptional distance, feel, and control. The durable shell is crafted of Dow plastic Paraloid, to help eliminate “cover cut” score marks that can ruin aerodynamics.
