June 5, 2008 - Stay on Par with Golf Sunglasses
Golf is a precise sport. You line up your shot, choose the right club and must connect at just the right angle. All of these mechanics require focus and the ability to see the ball and the fairways. Squinting at the sun is not a handicap you need in Golf! Golf sunglasses are not only fashionable but also a must have accessory on the golf course.
You need golf sunglasses in all weather and light conditions from bright sunny days to overcast days. Your eyes always need protection from harmful UVA rays even when the sun is hiding behind clouds.
Golf sunglasses also improve your game by enabling you to clearly see the ball and the mounds and valleys in the fairways. You will look and play like a pro with golf sunglasses.
Guidelines for buying the perfect pair of golf sunglasses
Frames
- You will want to look for frames that are flexible and will conform to your face for a snug but comfortable fit.
- Choose frames that protect your peripheral vision from wind, debris and glare.
Lenses
- Look for polarized lenses with maximum protection from harmful UVA, and UVB rays. Polarized golf glasses are not ideal for daily wear but will provide clear vision minus the glare.
- Consider the time of day and weather conditions. Lenses with a higher Visible Light Transmission (VLT) are better for flat to low light, such as partly cloudy or overcast days. A lower VLT will offer improved vision on bright sunny days.
Oakley Golf Glasses are stylish and excellent for golf. The Oakley G30 is the brand's golf specific lens. These golf sunglasses are excellent for those partly cloudy days on the course. The Iridium coating improves contrast and depth perception in blues and greens so you can clearly see your ball on the fairway.
Bolle Golf Glasses have a durable but lightweight frame that is virtually indestructible. Bolle Golf glasses can be molded for a perfect fit and the design protects even your peripheral vision from glare, wind and dust. Eaglevision is Bolle's golf specific lens and has two versions, one for lower light conditions and a newer EagleVision2 Dark designed to combat glare in bright light conditions.
Smith Golf Glasses are sleek, functional, and ideal for all weather conditions. The Ignitor is Smith's golf specific lens and offers definition and clarity of the ball. The Interlock is the newest in the interchangeable line. The Smith golf glasses give you clear color definition and are designed to highlight shadows. Smith golf glasses have a coating that cuts down on glare, and cuts down on dirt and sweat sticking to the surface.
With the right golf sunglasses you can read the subtle breaks in the green far better than ever before. Comfortably play the fairways in low sun angles, without squinting ... and breaks in the green become so obvious, it's almost like looking at a topographical map.
