Golf Accessories Ireland: What to Carry in Your Bag
A useful bag holds the small things that save shots and keep you dry. Everything below fits in a side pocket.
- Umbrella: a 62-inch canopy keeps you and your grips dry between shots.
- Towel: one clipped to the bag for clubs and balls, plus a dry one inside for your hands.
- Tees: a mix of long tees for the driver and short ones for irons and hybrids.
- Divot tool and ball marker: repair pitch marks on the green and mark your ball when asked.
- Glove: a fresh glove for dry days and a rain glove for wet ones.
- Club brush: clean grooves keep spin on wedge shots from a wet lie.

Accessories for Wet and Windy Rounds
Rain is the main reason Irish golfers buy extra kit. A large umbrella, a bag rain hood, a spare towel and a pair of rain gloves cost less than a decent waterproof jacket and make a bigger difference on a wet afternoon. Rain gloves grip better as they get wetter, so many golfers keep a pair in the bag all year. See our golf waterproofs guide for jackets and trousers.
In wind, a vented or double-canopy umbrella is less likely to invert. Keep a second towel in a plastic bag so you always have something dry for your grips.
Distance Devices: GPS or Laser?
A GPS watch gives yardages to the front and back of the green without aiming at anything, which suits most club golfers. A laser rangefinder measures the exact distance to the flag and suits players who want precise numbers for approach shots. Compare both in our GPS watch guide and rangefinder guide.
Golf Accessories as Gifts
Small accessories make easy presents because size rarely matters. A quality towel, a personalised ball marker, a club brush or a dozen premium balls all work for golfers of any level. Our Christmas golf gifts guide has more ideas, and the Black Friday golf deals page tracks price drops in late November.
Golf Accessories FAQ
What golf accessories does a beginner need?
Start with a glove, a pack of tees, a few spare balls, a divot tool with a ball marker and a towel. Add an umbrella and a waterproof jacket before your first wet round.
What size golf umbrella should I buy?
A 62-inch canopy covers you and your bag, which matters on an exposed course. Check that it has a double or vented canopy if you play somewhere windy, since those flex instead of turning inside out.
Are wooden or plastic tees better?
Wooden tees are cheap and break down naturally, but they snap. Plastic and bamboo tees last longer, and step or ring tees help you set the same height every time.
How often should I replace my golf glove?
Replace it when the palm turns shiny or a seam splits. Most regular golfers rotate two gloves so one can dry out between rounds.
Will I pay customs on golf accessories from the UK?
It depends on the seller. Clubhouse Golf includes VAT and import duty in its prices for Irish buyers, so nothing extra is due at the door.
