Tips for Staying Cool on the course in summer
Sip constantly to prevent yourself from becoming dehydrated, take a cart to limit physical exertion, as you’ll already be sweating, and stay in the shade when you can.
Wear light-colored clothes, such as blues, greens, or yellows, try to stay away from black, navy, or dark green. Bring a hat, or even a “soaker” hat to help keep your face and head protected from the sun, not to mention to provide you with some shade in areas where natural shade isn’t available. Bringing along or having access to wet, cold towels that you could place around your neck will help keep you cool. Be sure to bring along sunscreen and apply liberally—getting sunburned is not only bad for your skin, but will be uncomfortable.
The best time of day to go is early in the morning. This way you’ll still get to experience some of the coolness that took place during the night and you’ll be off the course before things really start heating up. The earlier you can get out there, the better, and you’ll be safe inside or lounging by a pool by the time that sun works its way across the sky and heats the course up.
