I enjoy playing eighteen holes whenever the opportunity arises and I love to travel to new places, so golf vacations are a favorite pastime of mine. However, coordinating the accommodations, rental car, and tee times on the course of my choice sometimes seemed as difficult as hitting a hole in one. At least that used to be the case, before I discovered the many advantages of booking golf vacations online with companies that specialize in these sorts of excursions.

There are certain features that I look for in a company that arranges these types of getaways. First, I want a price that is all-inclusive, so I am not surprised by any hidden charges when it’s time to sign on the dotted line. I want to know about any taxes and surcharges that will be tacked onto the final cost, and I like to get a rundown on the course fees, including cart rental before I go. Golf vacations should also include guaranteed tee times, and I have found that most travel specialists will handle these details to a “tee”!

I have had a blast touring many parts of the country for my golf vacations, especially the southern states like Texas, Arizona, Florida, and South Carolina. Some of the other destinations that I hope to explore soon include Virginia and Nevada, where I have seen some gorgeous courses featured in travel brochures and websites I’ve perused.

Once I have completed my tour of golf vacations in the continental United States, it will be off to more exotic locations like Mexico and the Caribbean. And how will I get there? On a cruise ship of course! There are cruises that will allow you to play eighteen holes at some of the finest courses in the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and Mexico, while you enjoy fine accommodations, dining, and entertainment every night. It’s the perfect way to travel!

Golf vacations can vary greatly in the amount of time away — from quick overnight jaunts to long, leisurely treks that include plenty of entertainment off the links. Accommodations can mean anything from a luxury hotel room to a four-bedroom condo, depending on my preferences and my budget. The great variety in golf vacations allows me to enjoy these trips as often as I can fit them into my schedule and budget.

Retirement may be all about spending leisurely days on the greens, but there is no reason why I can’t enjoy a hefty dose of my favorite hobby right now. By booking my golf vacations online, I can enjoy eighteen holes in some of the most beautiful resorts in the world while I perfect my swing for those retirement years. Fore!

Club car golf carts are owned and operated by people who think of a golf cart as more than just a way to get around the golf course, from tee to green. The real definition, of a club car golf cart, is any standard golf cart that has luxury accessories added onto it. Mostily all of these golf cart enthusiasts are green environmentalists who regard a electric club car golf cart as a great means of shopping and running short errands.

Because a lot more time is spent in these club car golf carts, the comfortableness by the rider should not be sacrificed. Even a lot of non golfers use their club car golf carts as a means of basic transportation, getting around small communities like Sun City, Arizona. Before you take your golf cart on the road, check your local laws to make sure golf carts are permitted with car traffic.

Headlamps, rear lamp, and Turn Signals

The headlamps, taillights, and turn signals should all be in working order since a lot of time will be spent on city streets. Remember to use these safety devices early in the morning and late at night.

License and Insurance

Both of these points are required just like with your car and boat. Additionally, some places require license plates. Some states may require you to pass a special driving and parking test, since driving a club car golf cart can be so much different than driving a regular car.

Common Club Car Golf Cart Accessories

The more common type of accessory added is some type of curtain that surrounds the cart and can be fully zipped during rainy or windy conditions. Installing a speedometer is a good way to avoid those photo radar tickets. If you are a golfer with bad eyesight, have a distance finder installed that will give you an exact distance to the green from any location.

Global positioning artificial satellite systems come in handy when you are playing a course for the first time. A wet bar with cooler comes in handy when you are having a bad day or someone in your group gets a hole in one. Satellite radio allows you to get tips while playing your round. Everything imaginable is possible to be added to your club car golf cart, you have only yourself to stop.

Trailer

Club car golf cart trailers are a great way to get your cart from one location to another, without driving it. This also allows you to save money by not having to rent a cart when you arrive.

I just came across the Great Video from Tiger Wood’s golf clinic. Hopefully you will find it as helpful as I did. His golf swing is amazing.
