The
sweltering heat during the warmer months can sometimes make you want to throw in
the golf towel. Here are a few tips that will keep you cool while your golf
game is on fire.
Don’t wait
until you are thirsty or dehydrated to drink water. You should drink a bottle
of cold water before you even get to the course. Having cold water in your
system will keep your body cooler as you begin to play. A good idea would be to
freeze a bottle of water the night before your round and grab it on your way
out. Then you can store it in your golf bag and have ice cold water at your
fingertips. Be sure to continue to drink water throughout the round.
Although you
may like that black polo shirt in your closet, don’t wear it out on the course
during the summer. The color will attract the sun which will cause you to get
overheated quickly. Wear light colored clothing instead.
Although this won’t help with the heat,
the sun is brutal and your skin can take a beating being exposed for hours on
end. Purchase an oil free sunscreen so that your hands aren’t greasy and use a
high SPF to ensure it is keeping you protected.
