Things To Keep In Mind When Golfing In Vegas

One of the most important things to keep in mind when planning a golf vacation to Vegas is the weather. Many visitors to Vegas underestimate the intense desert climate and searing heat of the Nevada sun, which can often result in terrible bouts of sun stroke and sun sickness.

The best way to prepare yourself for the Nevada heat is to:

  1. Keep Hydrated – drink plenty of fluids before, during and after your golf game. It doesn’t take much to break a sweat in the Las Vegas heat, so be sure to keep a couple of extra water bottles in your golf bag or Las Vegas car rental.
  2. Wear Sunscreen! – A golf game with friends in Vegas can often take an entire afternoon, which is an awfully long time to stand in the sun unprotected from dangerous UV rays. Wearing a sunscreen with a high SPF rating will help to keep from looking like a tomato, but remember to reapply it every two hours.
  3. Pack a Hat & Sunglasses – wearing a hat and sunglasses will help you see better out on the links, while at the same time helping to protect you from sunstroke and other heat induced conditions.
  4. Take the Time to Rest – If at any point during your golf game you begin to feel less than A-OK, be sure to sit down, drink some water, and relax. It’s easy to overwork yourself in the Las Vegas heat so remember to take your time in between holes. Many of the Las Vegas car rentals available from Dream Car Rentals come equipped with air conditioning, so if worse comes to worse, you can always take a minute to recuperate and relax inside your vehicle.
