Embrace the Chill and Get Excited about Winter Golf!

As the summer days fade away and the temperature drops, it's time to start thinking about preparing for the winter golf season. Golf is no longer just a warm-weather sport, as many courses across the country stay open throughout the winter months.

Here are a few tips on how to get ready for playing golf during the winter and why it can be a lot of fun.

1. It's important to dress appropriately. Make sure you have layers of clothing to keep you warm in the colder temperature. Winter golf gear such as hats, gloves, and thermal clothing are essential to prevent the wind from biting into your skin. This will also help you maintain flexibility and freedom of motion for that critical swing.

2. Be sure to have proper golf equipment for winter-related conditions. For example, use golf balls that are designed for colder weather as they perform better in lower temperatures. You may also want to switch to winter golf gloves that offer better grip and traction.

Playing golf through the winter comes with many benefits. With fewer players on the course, you will have more space to enjoy your game. Also, while the course conditions might not be as perfect as summer, you will discover a new challenge that will test your skills and mental toughness. 

3. Get yourself some winter golf buddies to enjoy the game with. Playing golf with friends is always fun as it adds a social aspect to the game. The winter season is a great time to meet new golfers and create lasting memories.

The Australian Women's Golf Network has an exciting winter schedule planned, watch this space for upcoming announcements including Womens Golf Day in early June!

Winter golfing is a great way to stay active, have fun, and develop your golfing skills. With proper planning, equipment, and some friends, you can play and enjoy golf through the winter months. Don't let the weather keep you from playing your favorite sport. Get ready for a great winter golfing experience!
