Umbrellas
Golf umbrellas are a must for any golfer, because they ensure you can keep playing when the sky clouds over. Sturdy and of course waterproof, golf umbrellas are made of strong stuff to keep them upright in wind, rain, and less than ideal conditions. If you’ve misplaced your golf waterproofs and get wet, you risk becoming cold, uncomfortable, ill, and not playing your best golf. Plus, your visibility may be hampered by the rain, adding yet another unfortunate limiting factor you could avoid with a golf umbrella. However, they’re also incredibly useful for protecting your skin on hot days and providing much needed respite from the sun. Find golf umbrellas online and in store with American Golf today.
Golf Umbrella Frequently Asked Questions
Should you use a golf umbrella in the sun?
In short, yes you should use a golf umbrella in the sun. They provide protection from all of the elements including the suns rays. Heat and UV protection is highly important for golfers given that you spend prolonged periods of time outdoors, especially during Spring and Summer. This can not only keep you cooler, but will also help protect your skin from sunburn and long-term damage.
Are golf umbrellas windproof?
Not all golf umbrellas are windproof - it depends on whether they have a single canopy or double canopy. We’d always recommend opting for a windproof and waterproof umbrella, because then you will be protected against all the elements rather than having to purchase another once you realise that the original umbrella you bought isn’t windproof.
How big is a golf umbrella?
Golf umbrellas are around 50 to 60 inches in diameter, which is far larger than your regular day-to-day umbrella. It can therefore stretch across your golf bag and trolley whilst you play your round so your belongings and clubs don’t get wet. Alternatively, it can also offer a welcome relief from the sun during hotter days.
What is a double canopy umbrella?
A double canopy umbrella offers double the protection to golfers on rainy days. Largely speaking, they are a broad umbrella with a double-layered canopy, whereas most standard or everyday umbrellas will offer one canopy. This adds a layer of wind protection, as there are vents underneath the second canopy to help wind pass through it safely. This helps to avoid the umbrella inverting or being carried off, making it far easier to control and far more effective for rain protection on grey days.
