Crisp mornings, colorful leaves and less crowded fairways. These are some of the things that make fall one of the best times to hit the course. But the cooler temperatures, early morning dew and soggy leaves can sometimes make the round feel a little trickier. Luckily, the right gear can make all the difference. Here are five fall golf essentials to keep you comfortable, organized and ready for your next shot.
1. Cart Bag: Extra Space for Layers and Gear
When the temperatures drop, having room for extra layers, gloves and hats is a must. A durable cart bag not only helps to keep your clubs safe from damp conditions, but it helps you stay organized with extra pocket space that allows you to focus on your game. Two great Cart Bag options are the Chiller Pro Cart Bag and the Lite Rider 2.0.
2. Nitron Push Cart: Walk with Ease
Fall is the perfect season to enjoy a walking round, but if your round starts early, it often means dealing with dew, mud and soggy leaves. This is especially annoying when you want to walk but don’t want to worry about getting your bag dirty.
The solution? A Nitron Push Cart. You still get the health benefits and mental clarity that come along with walking, all while keeping your bag off the wet ground. Lightweight, durable and effortless to use, the Nitron is designed to make your round easier—especially in the fall.
3. Cart Mitt Attachment: Keep Your Hands Warm
Cold hands can ruin an otherwise perfect round. They can make it hard to get your grip right and result in less-than-ideal shots. A Cart Mitt attaches directly to the handle of your push cart to keep your hands warm and comfortable between shots. Made from a windbreaking polyester shell, lined with soft fleece and containing pockets for storing handwarmers, the Cart Mitt makes sure your hands are ready for every swing.
4. Travel Cover: Protect Your Clubs Anywhere
When the weather inevitably gets too cold, having a travel cover on hand for a weekend getaway is a must. A good one will keep your clubs safe no matter how far you fly, while also including extra pockets for storing shoes and additional gear. We recommend the Freestyle for its maneuverability or the T-10 for its protection.
5. Cooler Bag: Stay Refreshed
Walking your rounds, even in the milder fall temperatures, calls for staying hydrated and refreshed. A Cooler Bag is a great way to enjoy a drink on the course. You can pack warm coffee for chilly mornings or iced beverages for sunny afternoons. The Cooler bag is removable, easy to carry, and it attaches to your push cart for ultimate convenience.
Wrap-Up
Fall is arguably the best season for golf. With a cart bag to hold your layers, a push cart to navigate wet fairways, a mitt to keep your hands warm, a travel cover for when you need to get away and a cooler for drinks, you’ll be ready to enjoy every round these next few months.
