Golfing at this time of the year in the middle of the states can be challenging. If there is a better way to stay warm and enjoy the game instead of being inside looking out would you take it? Of coarse you would!
Well here it is, if you have your own power golf cart or you rent here is a way to enjoy golf and also stay warm and out of the wind. The Classics Accessories Company has designed and engineered the best and most portable golf cart cover i ever saw, so i bought one.
This cover is great, i can see very well through the quality clear plastic windows. The doors have a great design for operation and to get in and out. The zippers are way high quality and should last for years and years. The cover itself goes under the cart roof on the supports and has a ratchet strap built right in, fantastic!
And the best part is i can golf in 45 to 50 degree weather with a wind blowing and i am cozy inside the enclosure, especially is the sunny is shining, it will really warm up.
Get your own Classic Accessories golf cart cover and get out there and golf.
Coleman Golf Cart Heaters stay warm
This time of year, unless you are in the deep south, you need some help keeping warm if you are going to play golf. Besides dressing warm, which can hinder your swing, and walking to generate warmth by keeping the blood flowing what else can you do?
Well I have used a golf cart cover on my own cart or a rental when I travel. But to improve on that the Coleman camping people have designed a heater with 3,000 btu’s that can be adjusted lower to stay comfortable in the golf cart. It even has a designed holder to fit in the cup holder of your cart.
This Coleman GolfCat portable heater has a battery ignition so you do not need matches for a whisper quiet flame-less warmth. Just imagine golfing on a cold 45-50 degree day with a slight wind and nobody else on the course but your foursome, two covered carts with heaters. You all are toasty warm and having a great day on your own golf course.
Calloway GPS units uPro part 6
The Calloway uPro GPS unit has a super fast lock on to the satellite so you do not have to wait to see your distances to hazards and locations on the green. Many of the GPS units out there take a while to show because they are low powered and have trouble locating and locking on to the satellites as required.
The uPro GPS unit comes already loaded with all of the available golf courses in North America so you can open the box and go golfing. It also is capable of adding golf courses later easily off of any computer.
With the SmartView technology of the Calloway uPro GPS you get automatic view ports that will show you information based on your next potential shot. And Calloway has an add on software download so the unit accepts voice command for total hands free operation.
Figure out your requirements for a GPS like how many different golf courses you play and your distance judgement capabilities and buy a unit for you and your budget and get that handicap lower.

This Calloway GPS unit is leading in the technology in my opinion and they must have done a heck of a lot of testing with golfer input to come up with all the engineering on this one.

Golf with the Best
Anyone who’s even mildly interested in the game of golf has probably come across the brand of Titleist. They are arguably one of the most well known and well respected brands creating golf equipment today. Titleist is actually owned by the Acushnet Company, and they are based out of Fairhaven, Massachusetts. While many people sing the praises of the Titleist golf balls, they are also involved in the production of golf clubs and many other kinds of golf equipment.
Establishing themselves as one of the best in the business, Titleist has earned the honor of being the company who sells the most golf balls in the United States. Their golf balls were first introduced on the greens of the US Open in 1949, and they’ve been used ever since. While they have worked themselves into the niche market of golf balls, Titleist has proved itself to be a dependable and high quality brand regardless of the product. So whether you purchase a whole set of Titleist clubs or just a few golf balls, you can be confident you’re purchasing the best.

Since the PGA has allowed GPS units to be used on the golf course in tournaments and matches, the manufactures in and out of golf have jumped on the band wagon to get a piece of the action. And why not, the GPS units have really changed the game if you like to play on different courses you do not know. Calloway GPS units, the uPro series is a serious contender in this corner of the market.
