“You play too much golf!”

Have you been accused of this before? For golf enthusiasts, there really is no such thing as “too much golf.” However, spouses, friends, and family members may not be so quick to understand. After all, they aren’t out on the course putting both body and mind to the test like you! To help you explain the benefits of getting out on the green, Gator Golf Carts has put together 5 solid reasons you should play more golf.


GOLF IS AN EXCELLENT SOURCE OF EXERCISE.

The game of golf may not be at the top of people’s minds when they think of fitness, but it is a great way to warm up the body, and improve and maintain flexibility. Your core, which is your mid-section, also plays a huge role in your golf swing, as do your chest, lats, forearms, and glutes! If you think about it, that’s a full body workout…

YOU GET A HEALTHY DOSE OF VITAMIN D.

Let’s face it. A lot of Americans don’t get outside enough. A lack of sunshine can lead to a Vitamin D deficiency, which in turn can cause bone pain, muscle weakness, cognitive impairment in the elderly, and even cancer. Thankfully, the largest golf capital in the world happens to be right here in the Sunshine State!

GOOD GOLF IS GOOD NETWORKING.

It pays to play in the corporate world! How many businesses use golf as an opportunity to bond and network? Practicing and maintaining a good golf game could win you new business opportunities before you ever leave the green, so it’s important to hone those skills!

GOLF IMPROVES CONCENTRATION.

Like your body, your brain needs exercise. Playing golf enhances your concentration, providing mental stimulation that can improve cognitive function both on and off the course. Talk about a mind game!

GOLF IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO SOCIALIZE.

Golf provides an opportunity for socialization, which is essential to the wellbeing of our mental and emotional health. Studies show that taking time to socialize with friends helps to relieve stress and improve your mood.

Ultimately, golf makes us better people. So grab your clubs and go play more golf! Gator Golf Cars is here with a great selection of golf cars to help you get from point A to point B.
