What is the best sunscreen for golf?
A broad-spectrum, water-resistant SPF 50 that is non-greasy so it will not affect your grip. Cover the face, neck, ears, and the backs of your hands, the areas that get the most sun over a round. Our mineral SPF 50 is built for long days outdoors.
How do golfers protect their skin from the sun?
Apply broad-spectrum SPF 50 to all exposed skin before you tee off, reapply at the turn, and add a hat and UPF layers. Mineral zinc protects on contact and resists sweat through the back nine.
Will sunscreen affect my golf grip?
Choose a non-greasy formula and apply to your hands last, or wipe your palms after applying. Our tallow-and-zinc formula absorbs without a slick residue, so it will not compromise your grip.
How often should I reapply during a round?
Every two hours. A typical round runs four-plus hours, so reapply at the turn after nine holes, and again if you are sweating heavily.
Is mineral sunscreen good for golf?
Yes. Water-resistant zinc oxide protects immediately, holds up to sweat, and is less likely to sting your eyes on a hot round. It is also fragrance-free and gentle for daily wear.
