The mornings are cooler. The days are shorter. But you still want to play.
The Canadian golf season is buttressed by the end and start of winter. Every Canadian golfer wants to get the most out of every week. As the days get cooler and shorter in October, it doesn’t have to mean you need to pack away your clubs. Instead, consider the accessories that will help you find a few more afternoons with friends on the fairway.
Cart Covers
If you’re a golfer who likes to ride year-round, we have a wide assortment of accessories designed to keep you comfortable on those cold days when you’re trying to sneak in another round. Covers that encase your cart and keep the elements out are key and come in universal sizes, so they’ll almost certainly fit your cart, regardless of where you’re playing.
Cart Heater
Now that you’ve kept the rain out (and hopefully it isn’t snowing), you’re going to want to find a way to bring the heat. Thankfully, Mr. Heater is to the rescue. This cart heater puts out 4000 BTUs of heat and features a wind resistant pilot system.
Seat Cover
Finally, you might find the leather seat cover of your cart is well, a little cold on your backside. Grab a Jef World of Golf Cart Blanket that secures to the armrests and is machine washable.
Heated pouch
Your hands are your connection to the club—and keeping them warm is key. Gtech’s Heated Pouch uses a lithium battery to warm the pouch, which you wear around your waist. With patented technology, and an adjustable strap, your hands will stay warm for up to 12 hours.
Rain and winter gloves
We hate to admit it—but it could rain when you’re playing in those shorter October and November days. It might even snow. Ensuring you can hold onto your clubs is a key, which is where rain and winter gloves are key. Rain gloves are exactly what you expect—gloves that help you hold onto the club regardless of how much precipitation is coming down. In fact, gloves by the likes of FootJoy and TaylorMade are designed to improve your grip as they get wetter.
Winter gloves, on the other hand, are designed to keep your hands warm on those days when there’s been a frost and there’s still a nip in the air. Mittens are common and can be found in many golf bags of those who play deep into the year.
Coloured Golf Balls
In recent years, golf balls with bright, matte colouring have become commonplace. Why? Because in some conditions—among fall leaves, for example—they are easier to see. No more need for the “fall leaf rule,” when using golf balls that can be readily found when you hit them offline.
