Golf Vacations

SWEETSTUFF

- By Terry Ross

Bay CEO Bryan Finnerty. “This is first allweather pant that was never designed to be worn over your golf pants. They are your golf pants. Brilliant designers ensure the styles match today’s golfer’s tastes.”

More than a decade ago the Galway Bay team found themselves dissatisfi­ed with traditiona­l rain gear’s ability to keep golfers consistent­ly warm, dry, and able to swing naturally. So, they set out to create a better class of golf outerwear. These offerings hit the mark.

A new addition to this year’s Galway Bay line is the Westport Half-sleeve pullover, 100-percent waterproof top with two layers of outer-water repellency. This seam-sealed jacket is the first of its kind to feature an additional weather barrier which creates increased waterproof and easier movement.

The sleeveless Canterbury vest features a quilted, lightly insulated front with comfort fitting back and stretch side panels. The design provides full range-of-motion for an unrestrict­ed golf swing. This full-zip vest has a small 1.25” collar for comfort. The Canterbury can be worn alone or as a layering piece under any of the Galway Bay jackets.

All Galway Bay fabrics are designed to breathe easy, releasing excess body heat and reducing sweat.

Prevail Jerky

Snacks during a round golf are important for several reasons— including strength and focus—in addition to the obvious hunger-quenching qualities that they can provide.

Having something healthy, handy, and tasty that is easy to eat while deciding between an 8 iron and a 9 iron is always a plus while on the course.

Prevail Jerky is not your traditiona­l beef jerky that is tough to chew, is filled with additives like soy, preservati­ves, sugar, nitrates, and MSG. Prevail is a healthy beef jerky that has a great taste and soft texture that can be very filling with just a few slices-all while ditching the harmful additives so commonly found in most other jerky.

The result is an incredible, deliciousl­y unmatched taste, paired with the perfect of texture thanks to the premium cuts of beef and a unique marinating process. Prevail Jerky is made using 100% grass-fed and grass finished beef, is only naturally sweetened with coconut sugar making it Paleo-certified, is gluten-free & Celiac Certified, soy-free and cane sugar-free too. It contains non-gmo, no added antibiotic­s, no added hormones, no added nitrates, or preservati­ves! It also has unique ingredient­s like matcha and cardamom, coupled with authentic cherry wood smoke to make this an enjoyable snack on the course.

In addition to the original beef Jerky recipe Prevail also comes in several other tasty flavors such as Spicy, Lemon Grass and Umami. Each serving is filled with 12 grams of protein and has only 80 calories, and the handy 2.25 Oz self-sealing packages are just the right size to fit in a golf bag.

Lugless Shipping

Evisit: ven before the pandemic changed the face of air travel this year, getting golf clubs or even everyday luggage from Point A to Point B was many times the least enjoyable part of a trip.

Enter a company called Lugless-that even in these times of diminished air travel—has seen its business double because it is solving a problem that travelers want handled more than ever these days so they don’t have to stand in long TSA lines or wait in crowds at baggage claim to gather their belongings.

The Lugless shipping service has seen a dramatic increase in golf enthusiast­s opting to ship their clubs to their destinatio­ns, instead of checking them on their flight, during the coronaviru­s pandemic. By shipping their golf clubs in advance, travelers can get in and out of the airport faster by not standing in bag check lines and avoiding crowded airport carousels, thereby reducing the amount of contact point interactio­ns.

“We’ve found that those golfers who are planning a golf trip this summer feel safer doing so without carrying and checking their clubs at the airport,” said Aaron Kirley, President of Lugless. “If travelers don’t have to wait at the crowded baggage claim area to retrieve their clubs, then they can eliminate a potentiall­y high-risk area of interactio­n.”

Lugless introduced the first costcompet­itive alternativ­e to checking bags at the airport by enabling travelers to ship luggage directly to their destinatio­n for as little as $15. Lugless leverages existing logistics networks to make shipping luggage easier and cheaper than checking a bag. The introducti­on of Lugless’ ultra-low-cost service provides a no-frills luggage shipping solution to the frustrated traveling masses who are increasing­ly dissatisfi­ed with the inconvenie­nce and rising costs of carrying and checking luggage at the airport.

According to Lugless officials, users have cited coronaviru­s concerns when flying and appreciate how the service alleviates some of their anxiety.

“Travelers are looking for solutions that help them speed through airports right now. No one wants to completely stop traveling but they do want to make it as safe as possible,” added Kirley. “We know that golfers are passionate about the game, and we are happy to help them continue to enjoy the sport with less worry.”
