You can never have too many golf accessories. I know I can’t. I’ve got all sorts of tools, devices, and gadgets in my golf bag. Some are necessary (golf balls, tees, etc.) and others are fun (GPS yardage finders, golf club covers, etc.). So what are the best golf accessories out there right now? We’ve compiled a list below to help you make your decisions easy. Keep reading to check out our recommendations.
It goes without saying, but if you’re going to be hitting the golf course, you probably need some golf balls. And you’re not going to do much better than Titleist golf balls. The DT TruSofts are high-quality balls at an affordable price. They are designed to provide maximum distance, consistent flight, and a soft feel on contact.
Billed as Titleist’s softest model, the DT TruSofts has a new, larger compression TruTouch core, which promotes lower spin for more distance and a softer feel. The new TruFlex cover provides a soft feel around the greens, including increased spin for improvement in your short game.
You might not play like a pro yet, but you’ll look like one with the Callaway Leather Scorecard Holder to keep track of your round. The outer cover is made of soft, synthetic leather, which flips open to hold a standard scorecard.
The scorecard offers nice size, but can fit comfortably in your back pocket, in your golf cart, or zipped into your golf bag. It has a sturdy writing surface that makes it easy to record your scores without having to lean against something to make clear and legible numbers. It also has an inside loop which can hold a pencil and makes a great gift idea.
The FlexiFreeze Freezable Golf Bag Cooler is a perfect and convenient way to keep your drinks cold on the course. How the bag works is it has 60 FlexiFreeze ice cubes built-in to the sides of the cooler. These ice cubes are made of purified, filtered water with no chemicals. Then you put the bag in your freezer to chill the ice cubes. And when you’re ready to head to the course, add your beverages (it holds four 12-ounce cans) and you’re set.
The bag, which straps easily and conveniently to your golf bag, will keep them cold for 8 to 10 hours; plenty of time to get your 18 holes in. The FlexiFreeze Cooler is easy to clean and is reusable, and it’s currently just $20.
Keeping your clubs clean doesn’t only make them look more attractive, but it also helps your game. And the Voplop Golf Brush and Club Groove Cleaner will get the dirt out of those irons, which will lead to better contact, spin, and shot consistency. And it will do so at a bargain price.
The brush has nylon bristles to clean woods and shoes; iron bristles for your irons, wedges, and hybrids; and a spike to help you get deep into your grooves as well as the spikes on the bottom of your shoes for heavy mud build-up. The club cleaner has a carabiner clip so you can easily attach it to your golf bag and features a retractable 2-foot zip-line cord so you can clean your clubs and shoes without removing it.
It’s available in 7 different colors — Black, Blue, Green, Orange, Red, Ultra Black, and Yellow — and comes with a 60-day money back guarantee and a 12-month replacement warranty. For the price and functionality, this item is one of the best golf accessories available today.
This is a cool little gadget that makes it easy as can be to get to you golf balls. The Golf Ball Holder by SnakeBelly attaches to the top of your bag with a clip, then load 3 golf balls into the storage magazine. Then you simply pull the ball from the bottom like a cup dispenser or out of the top. SnakeBelly calls it their Quick-Draw Release technology.
The idea behind it is to get the balls you like to use during your round readily available. So if you do lose one, you won’t have to fish through your golf ball pocket in your bag to find one of your favorites.
The clip itself is rubber-coated and the dispenser has a protective anodized aluminum finish. It probably fits best on stand and carry bags.
Garmin, one of the top names in GPS devices, combines style, comfort, functionality, and performance in their Approach S20 Golf Watch. You get accurate yardages to the front, back, and middle of the green, as well as shot distances.

Add a Garmin TruSwing, attach it to your club, and that sensor will track your swing to help improve your swing and consistency.
