Course of the Day

Skukuza Golf Course, South Africa 🇿🇦

What’s more nerve-racking than a group of people watching you tee off on the first hole? A lion watching you from the tall grass while you attempt to chip onto the green.

A lion 🦁 once killed a buffalo 🦬 on the first green. On another occasion, a honeymoon couple's golf game was interrupted by a pack of wild dogs chasing an impala across the course. Hippos, hyenas, giraffe, leopards, lions and warthogs all present at the course 👀 

Parks staff do keep an eye on the area to keep dangerous animals away, and no golfers have ever been harmed by wild animals…yet 😏 

19th Hole

This Bud’s For You 🍺

Not sure if you’ve noticed, but it’s freaking hot outside. And when it’s hot outside, your drinks don’t stay cold. And when your drinks aren’t cold, you play bad golf (it’s science). Sure, you can borrow your dad’s cooler from the 80’s and look like the biggest loser the course. Or you could look into getting some of these new and improved golf coolers and never have to worry about looking uncool (again, it’s science).

The cooler industry has come a long way and not only have they made them “bear-proof” (thanks to Yeti), but they have also made them more compact and convenient to carry around. That is where the sport of golf enters the chat. Here are some of the best rated golf coolers that you can bring with you on the course, and all for reasonable prices:

• 7-Can Golf Cooler Bag

• Big Max Cooler Bag

• Callaway Clubhouse Cooler Bag

• PGA Tour Golf Cooler Bag

• Sunday Golf Big Frosty

• Caddy Daddy Golf Cooler

• Coleman 24-Hour 16-Can Cooler Sleeve

• Athletico Golf Cooler Bag

• Caddyswag Par 6 Pack Golf Bag Cooler
