Questions

Golf Trip Packing List FAQ.

What do I need for a golf trip?

Four categories: non-negotiables (gloves, towel, ball markers, ball retriever), sun protection (arm sleeves, sunglasses, hat), weather insurance (rain gloves, waterproof towel), and round upgrades (GPS rangefinder, alignment sticks). Full list at wyxgolfsupply.com/golf-trip-packing-list with WYX10 for 10% off.

What golf accessories do most people forget on a golf trip?

Ball retriever ($24) — left behind because it feels unnecessary until hole 4. Alignment sticks ($24) — forgotten because they live with practice gear, not bag gear. Rain gloves ($34) — packed only when rain is forecasted, not as insurance. All three are worth packing regardless of forecast.

How many golf gloves should I bring on a 4-day golf trip?

Three minimum — one fresh glove per 18 holes. A 3-pack ($32) covers a full 4-day trip with one spare. If you are playing 36-hole days, pack two 3-packs. Worn gloves on a trip create grip anxiety that affects every swing; fresh cabretta leather is worth the packing space.
