5 Steps to Planning a Perfect Golf Getaway

Planning your golf trip isn't as simple as packing your clubs and hitting the nearest airport. There are things that you need to consider to make sure you've considered all possible options and dealt with any issues that could arise.
- Gather your team - Whether it's just a couple of family members, or a group of friends, the people you plan to take your trip with will help with deciding on where to go and what to do while you're there. Choose your travel group wisely .. spending a week on a course with a team member you don't get along with can really put a damper on your whole trip.
- Budget - No trip is successful without a well-laid out budget, and golf is no exception. There are many factors you need to consider, such as the cost of your flight, meals, and accommodations, not to mention course fees, gratuities, entertainment, local transportation, etc. Look around for discounted rates - many golf courses even offer discounts on group passes.
- Set up a plan - Are you going to a resort, or do you want to visit a city that has several golf courses? When planning out your trip, you'll want to pay attention to the requirements you have, such as when the course hours are, what kind of weather to expect based on the season, and even what dining options are in the area.
- Call an agent - Get in touch with a reputable travel agency to help give you the best advantage. A great travel agency will have all the necessary resources on hand to assist you with your planning.
- Make a list and check it twice - There's no worse feeling than getting to your destination and finding out you've forgotten to bring something important. Have a list ready so you can check off everything you've packed. Have someone else re-check it for good measure. You should also create a list of plan B options in case things don't play out as you planned.
Most of all, the point of your golf trip is to have fun, so don't sweat the small stuff!
