Tips for Sun Protection While Golfing
Just so you know, there are extra steps you can take to protect yourself from harmful UV rays on the golf course. Check out some of the tips below:
Wear a Hat
Hats are a standard component of a golfing outfit. However, they're not just for giving yourself the "golfer look". Hats and baseball caps actually provide more protection from the sun.
Not only that, but it reduces glare and provides better visibility. Ball caps and visors are the best options because they still in place, helping to shield your face. But a wide-brimmed hat offers more protection.
Put on Sunscreen
BloqUV's clothing does a good job of protecting skin from sun rays. But obviously, there are certain parts of your body that'll be exposed. You should still put sunscreen on your face, neck, ears, hands and legs.
Make sure that sunblock is water-resistant and has an SPF of 30 or higher. For best results, put it on at least 30 minutes before heading out.
Stand in the Shade
Shaded areas aren't ideal for golfing, but they're great for providing a break from the sun. If your golf course has trees, take some time to sit under it. You can drive your golf cart over and let your skin get a "woosah".
As you know, golf courses have an open, flat design and trees in the middle of the course are a no-no. That means you'll be out in hot areas where sunrays can beam directly on you. A break every now and again will do you some good.
Wear Sunglasses
If you've ever watched a PGA tournament, you may have noticed that most of the golfers wore shades. Not only do sunglasses enhance visibility, but they protect the face.
When choosing the best glasses for golfing, get a pair that blocks at least 99% of UV radiation.
