Best sun protection gear for golfers in 2023

Stay cool on the golf course all summer long with our list of best ways to beat the heat and protect yourself from the summer sun.

Summer is here which means its time to prepare for the hottest and sunniest days of the year.

No matter if it’s 80 degrees, 120 or somewhere in between, you need to have sun protection to avoid sunburns, UV damage and even skin cancer.

John Hopkins Medicine recommends applying water-resistant sunscreen with no less than 30 SPF to exposed skin every two hours. They also recommend using a lip balm that has 15 SPF. Applying sunscreen before you tee off and when you make the turn is a good habit.

With many brands making breathable long sleeve shirts and pants, opting to wear sleeves/pants can save you from overexposure over the course of the golf season.

Check out some of our favorite products to keep you safe in the sun, all summer long. Be sure to check out our favorite sunglasses and hats for the 2023 golf season to keep you looking and feeling cool.

Summer golf: Gear you need to play in the heat

Gear every golfer can use to stay hydrated, cooler and protected from the sun.

For the past week, huge swaths of the United States have felt record-breaking heat, with golf lovers sweltering from Rhode Island to parts of Oregon. With August still a week away and plenty of summer golf to be played, it’s important to plan ahead and have a few things handy.

The best way to beat the heat is obvious: Play as early in the morning as possible or late in the afternoon or evening. Days are long now, so a quick nine holes as the sun comes up or after an early dinner can help you avoid the hottest parts of the day. If that’s not possible and you know you’re going to be playing through the middle of the day, these things can protect you from the sun, keep you hydrated and help you stay cooler.
