7. Quality golf umbrella Don’t depend on the cheap logo umbrella you received as a gift at your last corporate golf tourney. Invest in a top-quality umbrella that can withstand strong winds and, more importantly, keep you dry between shots. Both Gustbuster and Haas-Jordan are two trustworthy brands that make quality umbrellas. 9. Extra items If you’re traveling in the British Isles or just about anywhere away from the continental U.S., take extra tees, pencils and divot repair tools, which aren’t as readily available at golf courses outside the U.S. 10. Healthy snacks Pack extra boxes of granola bars and peanut butter crackers, especially if you’re playing in the British Isles. The beef barley soup and fish and chips are delicious and are treasured favorites after a round, but you will need healthy snacks during play. We hope you enjoy your golf travel adventure and that these tips will make your trip go smoother. Reprinted from TheGolfTravelGuru.com with permission from Ed Schmidt. 8. Sizeable golf ball inventory In my experience, buying golf balls outside of the U.S. always involves serious sticker shock and a suddenly exploding travel budget. If you are a high handicapper, take more golf balls. Honestly evaluate your game to calculate how many golf balls will be enough.
