What do you have in your golf bag (wholesale golf)? Check it here!

 

Cell phone

I always tend to feel uncomfortable without a cell phone around. I guess that is the magic of modern technology. Well, take your cell phone on the course in case of an emergency, but be sure to keep it on vibrate so you do not disturb other players.

 

Business cards

You never know who you might meet on the next tee box. Have you ever seen the Pursuit of Happiness? I think you know how to catch a goof chance. So don't let the opportunity slip away and make more friends.

 

 

Raingear

A little rain never hurt anyone, but it can certainly make a golfer's life miserable. Pack a portable umbrella to keep you dry while you are waiting on the course. It will offer you better protection than an open-sided golf cart. Also, invest in a nice waterproof hooded pullover for when you have to take your swings. A cheap poncho will not allow you to swing as freely as a well-crafted pullover.

 

Sunscreen/insect repellent

Whether you will be playing in direct sunshine or next to standing water that can attract a mosquito convention, you want to be prepared. Bring a sunscreen with at least 30 SPF to protect your skin. Most sunscreens also act well as bug deterrents, but it is best to pack a repellent that contains at least 30% DEET to ward off any unwelcome winged intruders to your foursome.

 

First aid kit

You don't need an EMT bag; just the very basics that will help you continue to enjoy your game should a mishap occur. In a waterproof bag, be sure to include aspirin, alcohol wipes and adhesive bandages for scrapes. You should also have an antibiotic ointment for any cuts. Include some sterile gauze and medical tape for the bigger jobs. Pack a few antihistamine tablets to combat insect bites or allergic reactions. And don't forget to pack an antacid in case your breakfast is not agreeing with you.

 

A healthy snack

You will be on the course for several hours. A snack that's high in protein and fiber will keep your energy up on the back nine. Some snacks that easy to pack in your golf bag are an apple, banana, protein bar or nuts. You will be glad you have a healthy snack in reach that will satisfy your hunger during your game.

 

Ball marker/repair tool

Golf is a game of etiquette. You should always have a marker on hand to spot your ball when others are putting first. A repair tool can also ensure that any ball marks left by previous approach shots on the green are fixed. Your putt deserves a smooth ride to the hole.

 

Rangefinder

The pros are not allowed to use them, but a good rangefinder is an incredible tool for an improving golfer. By being able to accurately gauge the distance of your next target, the rangefinder will help you become comfortable with how far you can strike a ball with each club.

 

An extra glove

On a hot and humid day, switching from a sweaty glove to a fresh, dry one can be an invigorating feeling that will rejuvenate you on the back nine.

 

Water bottle

Never ever forget this! There is nothing worst than seeing an ice-cold water cooler sitting next to an empty cup sleeve. A good golfer never leaves anything up to chance. Bring your own water bottle and fill up whenever you have a chance.

Poncho

A poncho is a simple garment designed to keep the body warm, or if made from a watertight material, to keep dry during rain.

Discontinued after the Civil War, the U.S. Army again issued ponchos of waterproof rubberized canvas to its forces during the Spanish-American War of 1898.[4] Two years later, both the Army and the Marines were forced to issue waterproof rubberized cloth ponchos with high neck collars during the Philippine Insurrection in 1900.[5] With the entry of the United States into World War I, both doughboys and marines in France wore the poncho; it was preferred over the raincoat for its ability to keep both the wearer and his pack dry, as well as serving as a roof for a makeshift shelter.[6]

Just prior to World War II, ponchos were significantly improved during testing with the U.S. Army Jungle Experimental Platoon in the jungles of Panama, incorporating new, lighter materials and a drawcord hood that could be closed off to form a rain fly or ground sheet.[7] Ponchos were widely used by United States armed forces during World War II; even lightly-equipped foot-mounted forces such as Merrill's Marauders, forced to discard tentage and all other unnecessary equipment, retained their blanket and poncho.[8] During the 1950s, new lightweight coated nylon and other synthetic materials were developed for military ponchos. The poncho has remained in service ever since as a standard piece of U.S. military field equipment.[9] Today, the United States Armed Forces issue ponchos that may be used as a field expedient shelter. These garments are also used by hunters, campers, and rescue workers.

During the Second World War, the German Army (Wehrmacht) issued the Zeltbahn, a poncho that could be combined to form tents. A typical four-man tent used four Zeltbahnen.

In the infantry of Australia and the UK, a poncho is termed a shelter half, which may serve as a raincoat or as an individual shelter. In operations in which ponchos are used, one shelter half is carried by each person as rain gear; when two are combined, they form a two-person tent.
