Beginners Guide to Golf Apparel

Jan 15, 2015 5:34 PM
If you are going to play golf you need to have some specific apparel. You have to have a glove so your hand doesnt slip shoes so your feet dont slip rain gear for tough conditions and the proper clothes to match the courses dress code.

Gloves

Golf gloves are needed to protect your hands from wear-and-tear. Swinging your club in a repetitive motion can cause golfers to have sore and or calloused hands without the use of the gloves. Most golfers only wear one glove on the non-dominant hand. An example of this is when right handed golfers wear their gloves on their left hand. This is because the left hand would be the one to take the most punishment.

Shoes

One of the most important accessories a golfer need when playing golf are their shoes. Golf shoes allow the golfer to keep his or her footing while swinging the golf club. They come in different price range and styles from tennis sized golf shoes to expensive leather golf shoes. As a beginning golfer you should pick the ones you like at the price range you can afford.

Rain Gear

An umbrella is a tool that can be used on some occasions. You may not always need one but you can definitely use it on situations where there is rain or extreme heat. Many golf bags have a specific place where you can store the umbrella.

A rain suit is one of the more expensive accessories you can buy for your itinerary. This accessory is like a sweat suit but is made from a water repellant material to keep you dry when it rains while playing a round of golf. It can be rather expensive but it can be very useful on certain occasions when you are playing a round of golf and it starts to rain.

Clothes

You can find yourself buying all kinds of clothing when it comes to golf apparel. Most golf courses have a dress code such as no jeans and only collared shirts. If you find yourself in a course with such a dress code then you will need to buy khaki pants and Polo shirts. You will also want to buy different kinds of apparel such as wind breakers long-sleeve shirts short-sleeve shirts and other clothes needed for any weather condition.

Hats are another apparel item that you will find extremely useful when playing golf. Most golfers wear baseball caps with varying designs but the importance of this item lies on the fact that it can cover your eyes and hair when youre in the golf course. It would be extremely distracting if you are obstructed by the sun or your hair when playing golf the hat is used to cover your head so that you will be more comfortable playing your game.
