Sanibel Golf Tips
-
The gentle sunshine never stops, so if warm weather is something that will affect your game, choose tee times in early morning or late afternoon to avoid the warmest hours of the day.
- Start hydrating yourself before you even get to the course, with the Sanibel Island humidty you will need to keep yourself full of water. Take along a couple bottles of water to refresh yourself along the way.
- Even on the mildest of days, it is important to use a good quality sunscreen. Choose one of that is least 15-spf. Wear a light colored hat that will help you keep a bit cooler in direct Florida sun.
- Take the time to arrive early for your game so that you can stretch and get your muscles primed for action.
Warming up properly makes all the difference and helps prevent muscle soreness.
- Warm your swing up by hitting some golf balls on the driving range before you begin. This helps get the kinks out of your swing. Also, if the facilities are available, practice your chipping and putting, focusing on getting the ball within a few feet of the hole.
- Attitude adjustment is sometimes in order before you begin your game. Think confidence. Golf is largely a mental game and a positive attitude could be the deciding factor in a hole in one!
- Ask about any twilight rates that the course may have they are usually much less than regular green fees.
- The fall and winter months usually bring breezy days that will require you to compensate for wind direction. The wind tends to gust around 20 mph from any direction on the compass, but the temperatures are delightful and the days are sunny and irresistible for getting out on the greens.
- The golf courses are shared with all sorts of critters.Take along a pair of binoculars if you are interested in nature. You will see many varieties of birds, particularly large birds, such as the sandhill crane and graceful snowy egret.
- Relax and have fun. After all you are on your vacation so enjoy!
