There are plenty of GPS devices, but Garmin’s is the easiest to use on the links: Load up any course and it’ll display the golfer’s distance from a number of positions on that course (including hazards to avoid), along with other precision tricks.

A Respectable Golf-Course Speaker

JBL Clip 5

On Sale

Clip 5

If they prefer total silence on the course like they’re on tour, whatever. Let that person do them.

If they’re cool and normal, JBL’s Clip is an amazing little speaker, and it’s our favorite for some light tunes on the course. It’s competent but never gets loud enough that anyone would tell you to turn it down.

For the Party Golfer

Yeti 8 Soft Cooler

8 Soft Cooler

Now I’m not telling you to break any course rules, but the fact that you can’t have a cooler with beer and snacks for the entirety of your 18 holes … it’s unjust. And I, like great thinkers before me, think we have a moral obligation to disobey unjust laws.

For such a task, I’m using Yeti’s smallest soft cooler. It’ll fit in a basket or at someone’s feet, and it’s not big enough to let the crew get obscenely tarnished. That’ll be done back at the clubhouse.

Best Golf Pants for Golf Punks

Dickies 874 Flex Work Pants

874 Flex Work Pants

If you thought all golf pants needed to be associated with the word stretch, we’re here to tell you that ain’t it. Want to know something about golfers? We’re sickos. That means we’ll play when it’s 35 degrees out if there’s a lick of sun splitting the clouds. That also means you’re more likely to light a cigar at St. Andrews than to stay warm in all those stretchy, sweat-wicking golf pants. Dickies are the toughest pants out there, so yes, they’ll hold up in nature, too. And yes, you can wear Dickies to play golf. Let’s allow this simple suggestion to be the turning point.
