Best on-course golf accessories according to redditors

Balanced Co. Dwight Schrute Mask Golf Hat Clip with Enamel Magnetic Ball Marker https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07T114HDD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_eadqDbTWF2HV0

I know of some carriers who use these. The Original Chill Pal PVA Cooling Towel (Aqua Blue) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MLGB3N4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_G299ybET1PVE0

They have two, one dry and one wet. Have a cooler with water/ice in it and dunk the wet towel in the cold water and keep it around your neck. Use the dry one to dry off any overly wet areas.

Personally I usually just drink 2-3 liters of water a day and occasionally pour water on me. I sweat like crazy and with out pouring water on myself, I look like I jumped in a pool pretty early on the day.

Also remember that taking a break to cool down is a comfort stop and is NOT counted towards your ten minute breaks or your lunch. It's a safety issue. If you have a library, church, gas station, or something of the like swing in there and cool off. You can not get in trouble for working safely.

Well, there’s this other one

Fell down the Amazon rabbit hole and found some of these. Game over. https://www.amazon.com/Demarkt-10pcs-Naked-Lady-Nude/dp/B00IJ0F7S8/ref=pd_bxgy_200_img_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=V70JQ9YPZ29FGJFYACSP

Having spent 6 weeks without electricity in Miami after Hurricane Andrew, here are a few tips I found that helped.

Get, or cut down a 100% cotton sheet or beach towel to your preferred hammock sleeping size. All cotton is key here...what kills up north saves lives down south.

• Soak the sheet/towel in cool water.
  
• Wring it out.
  
• Lay in hammock.
  
• Drape wet cotton sheet/towel over you.
  
• Enjoy the chilliness and drift off to sleep.
  
  and/or
  
  
• Wear cotton shorts/tee. Spray or soak, wring them out. Repeat as above.
  
  Daytime:
  Get yourself one of these. Make sure it’s 100% cotton. Soak in cool water, wring, wear. Repeat as needed.
  
  100% Cotton Bucket/Boonie/Fishing Hat
  
  These also work well. Ignore the “snap to cool technology” marketing nonsense. When it warms up, re-soak or just open it up and wave it around a bit to dissipate the heat (snap tech, ya know?).
  
  Chill Pal Cooling Towel
  
  Evaporative cooling is your friend. 100% cotton is your best friend cuz it will take a while to dry out.

Cooling towels are one of the best inventions ever. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XKLYWFU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you can find them somewhere these towels legitimately work great. I used them in an unventilated warehouse during the summer and was able to keep up a good pace of work.


Also, some gatorade to go with the water might help morale. At Fedex my boss would hand out 5+ bottles of Gatorade when the days would get hot like this. It was practical but also a nice, low cost gesture for him that raised morale.

Bring those cooling towels. One for each member of the family. Douse them often and stay cool.

That’s my best advice for not going insane in the parks in July.

https://www.amazon.com/COOLING-TOWEL-Advanced-Hyper-Absorbent-Effective/dp/B00EE79EZM

There was nothing that I left at home that I wished I had brought with me. But there were things that I brought with me that I should have left at home. You can always buy things along the way - clothes are the easiest to buy, but if you have a favourite style/brand of underwear, that would be the only thing I would recommend you take enough of.

Minimize adapters, chargers, cords as much as you can. I found that a good power board/strip (with USB) and 3m cord came in very handy, similar to this, where you can plug in your gadgets, etc from your country, but just use one adapter. And the long cords helps in hotel rooms and apartments so you can maximise your work area.

A large collapsible umbrella. Many here I am sure would find it unnecessary, but if you are travelling for work (in tropical areas especially) and need to get places dry, a good large umbrella is worth its weight in gold. You might only use it a few times a month, but it keeps you and your things dry. Don't go for a small "travel size" one, get a large, automatic-opening one like this.

It does depend on how much you will be moving around. If you are only moving every 2-3 weeks, that would be very different to if you were moving every 2-3 days. Too much luggage is just a PITA to get to from hotels/airports, no matter who is paying for it. I used a baglike this one and started with 20kg (absolutely full!), but now I have left some things behind and it is 16kg, plus I always have a small backpack for my laptop/electronics and a change of clothes for carryon. Less is best.

I'm trying something like these this year. Weekend 2 somebody let me borrow theirs for a minute and it was amazing so I bought a few for myself this year.

5 bucks for peace of mind and consistency

Worked great for me thus far.

The GustBuster 48" Umbrella would fit the bill nicely. Very sturdy, a handsome wooden handle, and a vented top to prevent getting turned inside out when the wind picks up. I have had one for two years now and it looks just the same as the day I bought it.

Im willing to bet thats an umbrella with a sword handle - https://www.amazon.com/Japanese-Samurai-Umbrella-Carrying-Guarantee/dp/B00WRDDE1A?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_1

When I was deployed in the Middle East it was hot as balls when working out.

Keeping the neck moist is the easiest way to keep cool.

https://www.amazon.com/Original-Chill-Pal-Cooling-Towel/dp/B00NIYOOMA

Buy this or something similar to this. Make sure whatever one you get is long enough to wrap around your neck.

Its basically just a towel, but it evaporates the water fast because of the material. Wet it with cold water before you go out to the gym, wrap it around your neck, and adjust the fan to blow on your neck so it will stay somewhat cool. Re-apply cold water as needed.

I have a few solutions to this as i myself have gone to the extremes on sleep deprivation at lib. Here are a few game changers that made a world of difference.

1. Your tent. We found that righ as the sun comes up sleep is almost impossible due to light and rockstar heat. We got a bunch of those emergency thermal blankets and lined the exterior of our tent almost entiely in them. This both blocks light and a huge amount of sun heat. They make it seem like air conditioning compared to not using them. Packing tape works very well on holding them together and allows you to customize their shape to fit your specific tent. Another tip is to sandwich or layer them between a fabric material to dampen the noise they make with the wind as they move. Those mitary guilly style camo covers work well too. You basically want to hold them down as well as possible to limit how much they move to eliminate the noise they make, which is like tin foil.
   Be creative and innovative with these as they can look really cool too! Your tent will be dramatically more comfortable all day.
   
   https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01LZN0KGB/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1526521307&sr=8-1-spons&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=survival+blanket&psc=1
   
   They come in multi packs to save money. Also if you have extra, im sure your neighbors will appreciate it greatly if you donate a few. The only drawback is the noise, so ensure you address this. Installing them on the inside of your tent is also an option.
   
   
2. Sound. Earpeace hd earplugs are amazing
   https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B076VTXWBP/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1526521562&sr=8-1-spons&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=earpeace&psc=1
   
   I go to tons of concerts! These are exceptional not only for being FRONT ROW! but amazing for sleep as well. They are inexpensive and worth every dollar, and super comfortable!
   
   
3. Brain spa.
   
   Onnit new mood!
   
   https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00AFB5U3Q/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1526521888&sr=8-1-spons&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=new+mood+onnit&psc=1
   
   Take these before bed. Such a great balanced formula and one of the best regenerative items ive found yet!
   Nuff said
   
   
4. Light in the morning or anytime of the day.
   
   https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GSO1D9O/ref=mp_s_a_1_5_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1526522197&sr=8-5&keywords=eye+mask+for+sleeping&dpPl=1&dpID=31eeIOXqJoL&ref=plSrc
   
   Ill keep this short, they just work, period.
   
   
5. Cool as LIB!
   https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00XKLYWFU/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1526522342&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=cool+towels+for+neck&dpPl=1&dpID=41vWMI5EJzL&ref=plSrch
   
   We discovered these and theyre awesome! We wet them down at the water stations which are everywhere throughout Lib. They feel amazing in the sun and in a wierd way are kinda fun, idk. Lol
   
   
6. Bring vitamins! I recommend D3, ZINC, B COMPLEX, AND FISH OILS.
   Make sure you keep these all cool and dry.
   
   I recommended a cooler scenario in another sub, but ill repeat it here.
   
   Dry ice in your cooler is the best way to refrigerate all weekend that i have found, minus actually having a refrigerator.
   
   Tip: careful with dry ice as it can burn you and mess up your cooler if not prepared properly. Wrap it in brown paper to prevent direct contact with the sides and bottom of your cooler. Also, if you put actual ice around the dry ice this works too. We got a solid 3 days of awesome cooler performance this way. Cover your cooler during the day with the above mentioned mylar blankets for even better performance.
   
   
7. Protein power! You need nutrition if you want to rage like a rockstar! Many flavors and its super fast and simple to prepare. I use mp combat protein, works well and tastes great!
   
   
8. Bed/air mattress. One oddity we found with our air mattress. At night the ground and ambient air temp drops a bunch on some occasions. So the air inside the mattress cools as well which made for an extra chilly experience one night. We insulated the bottom and sides of our air mattress with a fleece or similar blanket which helped keep our body heat inside the mattress.
   
   
9. Feed me! Bring good healthy food like apples, avocados, bananas, pita bread, peanut butter or almond butter. These are delicious and full of proper energy. Keep junk food to a minimum, but dont eliminate it, because well, sometimes cheese its are bomb as hell! You just dont want to be weighed down by garbage. Tip: the acai warrior bowls at the food courts are legit! And, try the poutine for breakfast! You wont regret! Also we found that Mountain house freeze dried packets are a convenient and awesome way to chow down. You'll need hot water for some and regular temp for the cereals and desserts.
   
   I hope this helps. Unfortunately I can't be at LIB this year, so this post helps me cope with said situation.
   
   I have many other pro tips if anyone is interested so hit me up
   
   Love you LIB!
   
   

My bf just got The Gustbuster. He likes it.

I don’t think anyone would be upset getting a sleeve of titleist prov1 or prov1x. A sleeve is usually 13-16$ so that fits your range pretty well. Otherwise something I just bought myself is a Golf Ball Stencil... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072JJRQV6?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share and then a pack of colored Milwaukee tool Inzall markers. Get them at Home Depot though, waaay cheaper than amazon.

Step 1) Wet towel.
Step 2) Snap towel a few times.
Step 3) Place on neck/head/face/etc and enjoy the sweet caress of heat relieving angels.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XKLYWFU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_IqxOAb7EGMD8M

I've bought several of these over the years and not one has ever turned inside out, even in serious wind. I've only had to buy replacements because I lose them occasionally.

https://www.amazon.com/madewin-Umbrella-Recharged-Instead-Battery/dp/B073WWDDJV/ref=pd_sim_468_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B073WWDDJV&pd_rd_r=F2ZK3P22F9Y517W8G8Z7&pd_rd_w=ZrQD8&pd_rd_wg=kLYsN&psc=1&refRID=F2ZK3P22F9Y517W8G8Z7

These will go over well for a stag outing...

This is what I use. You can find this brand at Meijer or Walmart...

Cooling Towel

Or for $3.50 each, you and your friend can make straight lines in the middle of the ball

EDIT: if you need something to do with your PVC pipe piece, use it for putting drills. If you are striking with the toe or heel first, the pipe will spin on the carpet. If you're impacting square - the pipe will roll away from you.

I've been very happy with my Gustbuster. I've used it frequently for about three years now, and it still looks basically new.

It allows you to set your own tee height.

like this

Most ranges I go to have rubber tees that are too short or too tall. This allows me to set it to the height I want. Just don’t forget it at the range like I did once.

My man got these cooling towels for my entire crew and everyone loved them! They came in really handy when too hot or if someone felt too f'd up. Definitely bringing them again.

http://www.amazon.com/Chill-Pal-Ultimate-Cooling-Guaranteed/dp/B00MLGB3N4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1462583476&sr=8-1&keywords=cold+snap+towels

extendable gold ball retriever.

If you make them tall enough so that they don't block people's views and you should be fine. They don't bother me.

You guys should all look into these. Having one on your neck while the fan going is 10/10 would recommend.

You have to be really careful in the heat with children and the elderly. It is not uncommon for elderly people to pass during heat waves.

If ac is not an option, I recommend something like a cooling towel.

So long as they have any moisture on them, if you wave it around for a few seconds, they get really nicely cool.

It doesn’t have to be dripping wet either, so she won’t worry about messing up furniture or clothes with to much water, or puddle on the floor to slip on.

A little water in the morning, and it will stay wet for 3-6 hours without extra water depending.

If she can wrap it around her neck or any pulse points it will help cool her down.

Went to a wedding in Mexico last summer. Mother of the grooms feel swelled, so I used one in lew of an ice pack, and she was walking ok the next day.

This is a good one I ordered for my warehouse workers last summer:

Elephant passport cover

A luggage tag like this is really sweet

Small elephant plush (She can take it with her on her trip to think of you)

Cooling towel for sports

I bought this one after a recommendation on this subreddit. Exactly what I wanted. Have had it about a year and love it.

Price of only 40 new.

http://www.amazon.com/Japanese-Samurai-Umbrella-Carrying-Guarantee/dp/B00WRDDE1A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449805685&sr=8-1&keywords=sword+umbrella

I've been using this one (in and around NYC) for about a year and it's served me well. It seems Amazon is no longer offering the navy blue one that I have, but regardless, it's devoid of any sort of logo or branding.

My only complaint is that the Velcro on the straps has worn away. I usually keep it in the sleeve though, so this is somewhat of a non-issue.

If you live somewhere windy, I can not recommend the GustBuster enough. It is the best umbrella I’ve ever owned. I used it during 50 mph winds and it did not invert!

STOP BUYING CRAPPY UMBRELLAS. They'll keep breaking when you really need them. I bought a GustBuster a few years ago, it's great: https://www.amazon.com/GustBuster-Classic-48-Inch-Automatic-Umbrella/dp/B000AMSCRG

They make smaller foldable ones too, and they have a lifetime warranty (though you have to mail in some shit to activate it).

Or buy another brand of durable umbrella, but for god's sake, stop buying cheap shit from Duane Reade. It just creates trash for no reason.

edit: https://www.csmonitor.com/Business/Saving-Money/2013/0803/Stop-buying-cheap-umbrellas-4-with-lifetime-warranties

I live in Arizona and hike in the heat all the time. These cooling towels are great: https://www.amazon.com/COOLING-TOWEL-Advanced-Hyper-Absorbent-Effective/dp/B00EE79EZM

You can dip it in hot water and the towel will still be pretty cold.

EDIT: Here's a cool video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERzYzC8Hy4o

There are a million different versions of this, but I personally carry a cooling towel similar to this one. You get it damp with water, and it stays cool as the water evaporates. I wear one around my neck, or tie it across my forehead to soak up sweat. Its a cheap option, and really helps.

In case anyone in the future searches for umbrellas, I just found this one for just $14, which is a historical low so I'm giving it a shot. Still would love to find a bulk source for uber cheap umbrellas....

something like this

Uniform, level surface with guaranteed consistency. I use the mats for working on my driver/woods and bring one of these with me so that I can use real tees.

I also like the mats when working on shorter chips and wanting to just dial in a groove and work on the consistency of my short chip/punch stroke. I like the grass when working on longer pitches and irons up to full iron shots.

My local grass area isn't particularly flat so it doesn't really emulate being on a tee box very well. They also don't keep the grass short enough to emulate the fairway. It's more of a "first cut" grass length.

FUCK YES to making festivals a larger part of your life. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made :) I don’t know about the best shoes for dancing, but I always wear Vans to shows and festivals and I’ve never had an issue with my feet hurting. I think they’re a great option :) As for things to take the night of or after partying I would recommend a multivitamin, tylenol and a smoothie. The best thing you can really do to help yourself out is to eat lots of fruits and veggies in the days leading up to an event (or all the time!). Also constantly drinking water. I’ve tried a lot of extra supplements and misc. vitamins but they all are kinda extra and not needed to me. Also I constantly eating Cliff bars at festivals even when I’m not hungry. I feel better usually when I really really load up on calories. Healthier ones though!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LCBRQK5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just bought this air mattress this year so haven’t tested it longterm, only used it for one festival so far. It stayed inflated well for the first 2 days and then we just topped it off with some more air for the remaining days and it worked great for us. Super comfy and it’s nice being higher off the ground. We put the air mattress in the tent before we inflate it, way easier. No air pump needed we use a car plug adapter and an extension cord. Its super easy to run your car for 5 minutes to inflate it. Make sure you pay attention to the number of prongs on your plug so you don’t buy the wrong adapter or extension cord too! For camping without a car nearby this method won’t work obviously but we always have the car by us.

My boyfriend and I purchased this tent 2 years ago and its made it though a decent amount of festivals. No signs of wear or damage. I know you mentioned a black out tent. I’m assuming to help sleep once the suns up? The heat usually gets me out of the tent before the light, it gets so unbearably hot once the suns up. You said you’re not new at this though so I’m sure you already knew that! :)

For staying cool I would recommend a cooling towel. Get it wet in your cooler ice water and it’s great to keep around your neck. Also small hand fans are a GAME CHANGER for guys and girls. It’s shocking how much they help honestly. Sitting with your feet in a small pool, bucket, or cooler when you’re hanging out at the campsite is super nice too. Just fill with water and some ice cubes and it really helps cool your body down!

Hope this info helped you out!

I have

• Chill Pal PVA Cooling Towel (Ocean Blue) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XKLYWFU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ytOmDbPB9SMQ9this
  
  
• Chill Pal 12 in 1 Multi Style Cooling Band (Purple, Full Size) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D52VTW1/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_3tOmDbM1VCJKT
  
  
• Chill Pal Mesh Cooling Towel (Twilight Purple, 12 x 40 inch) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W9NBS28/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ivOmDbP4BJATD
  
  They all work really well, but IMO the effects can be short lived and you frequently have to get up and wet them again. The PVA cooling towel seems to work REALLY well, I think it has something to do with the gel like consistency of the fabric. I think these are good things to have around. My heat intolerance is really bad, so every little bit helps.
  
  Also, I have an Embr Wave device, which I find brings short bursts of relief, but it takes a while between sessions and needs to be charged often. They’re also a bit pricey.
  
  Cold showers help a lot. When I’m overheating, even cold water doesn’t make me jump like it normally would, it feels very soothing. It’s just about finding the right temperature.
  
  Keep cool objects against your carotid arteries (basically just keep cold or cool items on your neck).
  
  Fans help. Use a plastic spray bottle filled with water and mist yourself. I’ve tried one of these and I actually find they work really well for me

Fellow heat sufferer here. I like to soak my hair then sit in front on a fan. Creates a lovely cooling effect. I also have a cloth that when wet is really cool but doesn't leave wet patches where you put it. like this

cooling towel

These are amazing

Hope I'm not too late but I found some golf stuff in your price range that your dad may like. This tee set or maybe this one or this ball set. This marker set is nice for when hes playing or maybe these covers, this golf shirt, or this organizer. If you want to spend a little bit more theres always this putting mat for his house. This wallet isn't golf related but I bought my SO a hockey related one for Christmas and its really nice. Hope I could help! If I win I'm dying for these pans

Two Suggestions:

To save a bit of cash, you can buy a mat "strip" and build a platform around it out of plywood and carpet scraps. I have the mat linked below and have used it every day for about 2 years. It's still in great shape:

I think people are just stealing them. I ended up buying a rubber tee thing that lets you put a real tee in it. It's really nice to have. Something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07414K214/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_fMC3CbS98YPXW

Get one of those cooling towels that you dip in water and stays super cool for a while.

Something like this:

That's what I used when I had a 1996 Toyota Corolla that lacked A/C. Worked great for me.

This is the only umbrella you need! Absolutely the best!!

I've been using these which helped but the just aren't quite high enough. I absolutely adore the short tees though. Perfect for par 3's and 3 wood / hybrids for tee shots.

Love the exchange, but seriously go get one. Received [mine] (https://www.amazon.com/Orlimar-15-Foot-Flourescent-Head-Retriever/dp/B004LFW7S8/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1465759019&sr=8-10&keywords=telescopic+golf+ball+retriever) last Christmas as a stocking stuffer, and it's paid for itself 100x over. My home course is usually pretty slow, so I generally stop at one specific place and always walk away with forgotten soldiers. I haven't bought new balls in almost a year

Should you want to, you can buy this frame:

It has a 54 inch span, which you can cut down if necessary because it's made of fiberglass or some kind of plastic.

I've gone a summer without car AC in GA and it sucks. You have all my sympathy.

I just got a headband for my bf who works construction. check this out, you may like it https://www.amazon.com/COOLING-TOWEL-Advanced-Hyper-Absorbent-Effective/dp/B00EE79EZM

it becomes cold to the touch! I'm buying one for myself too.

Get one that clips completely around the ball. I have this one: 2 Pack Golf Ball Line Liner Drawing Marking Alignment Putting Tool (Green) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072JJRQV6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Tf5WCbBF44SY0

For your dad I would say these Houston Golf Markers and a Game Tracker Pad!!

If its okay to pick something on my list, I would LOVE this vacuum for my apartment. Seriously, these floors need it :P

Portable phone charger is a must. Also like other said, cheap dollar store ponchos, temporary tattoos for the kids and if you have girls buy them a dress at Target for $20 instead of in the park for $60+

I'd also recommend one of these chill pad towels. You soak it in cold water, ring it out and it says cold for a few hours. Really helps keep the kids (and adults) cool. Just wrap it around your neck for 10 minutes.

While you can get a cup of water for free from any quick service counter we usually bring an insulated water bottle which keeps drinks cold for 8 hours even in the Florida sun.

oh no! We have a slight warm-up here and even that is killing me, I can't imagine dealing with the heat down there! My friend who is also due in October recommended these cold towels to me this summer and they were a life-saver! I'd definitely pick one up if you are able - they're generally at target or walmart too.

I was in the Chisos Basin area over Memorial Day last year. It was hot, but not nearly as hot as Houston. If you're going to be hiking for miles and miles, I highly recommend one of those neck towel things that stays cold for hours (like this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XKLYWFU/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awd_PRckxbD7HST87). Remember to bring chapstick, too, it's dry as hell over there.

GustBuster umberellas are much cheaper than Davek and can withstand really high winds. I'm thinking of buying one of the large ones.

GustBuster Classic 48-Inch Automatic Golf Umbrella (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009GGIFG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_gdTIwbWWJKPM2

My friends in real weather places recommend this:

GustBuster Classic 48-Inch Automatic Golf Umbrella (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009GGIFG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_Z9cJwbDE0NMQ6

ever since we found them, I've been recommending them to everyone- it makes that much difference, even in the super high humidity. I'm linking the brand we've got, but I bought it in Ross (I think) for several dollars less.

Average 4 stars - so pretty good. And this one's even better apparently:

Oh, and so's this one:

5 stars!

You accidentally sent me a link that had a filter applied to only show the 12% of one star views, by the way.

I'm going to guess its a cooling towel. I've never used one before but I imagine it having that springy/spongy feel you describe.

He is leaving all the planning up to me and I am just feeding him different bands from the lineup every other day or so.
Agree with everyone about staying hydrated. Luckily we are Florida boys and pretty used to it. A really good cooling towel can be a lifesaver as well.
