There\u2019s nothing quite like a golf day with your mates, colleagues, or just in general. A good course, great company and the camaraderie of those involved all combine to create a memorable experience.<\/p>\n
But behind every great golf day lies careful planning. Whether you’re organising a smaller, more casual day with friends or a larger, competitive outing, there are a few key steps that can make all the difference. So, let\u2019s dive into how you can plan the perfect golf day.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s important to establish what kind of day you want. Are you looking for a laid-back round of golf or something a bit more competitive? Once you know what you want from the golf day, you can begin piecing together your plans.<\/p>\n
Skill level:<\/strong> Assess your own golfing ability, as well as that of your group. This will help in choosing the right course and deciding on the format of the game. Nine times out of ten, the golfing ability will be wildly mixed, from low single figures to 28-handicap bandits.<\/p>\n Pace:<\/strong> Decide whether you want a leisurely round without any time restrictions on the day, or whether you\u2019re looking to get the round done in the morning to leave time for extra socialising in the afternoon and evening.<\/p>\n Budget:<\/strong> Golf can range from relatively inexpensive to pretty high-end, depending on the course and amenities. So be sure to set a clear budget early on to help narrow down your options.<\/p>\n2. Choose the right course<\/h4>\n
