[Asia Economy Reporter Nowrae Noh] "Best value for money."

There is a stereotype that "golf equipment is expensive." People think "you need to save a large sum of money to buy it." That's not necessarily true. There are plenty of small items priced reasonably under 60,000 won that deliver great benefits. These products help improve your play and make perfect gifts for acquaintances. Golf.com in the U.S. introduced the best essentials under $50 (56,000 won) recommended for golfers in 2021.

First is a water bottle that is essential for rounds lasting over 4 hours. It is an important helper that supplies hydration throughout the day. It is suitable not only for golf but also for hiking, kayaking, and commuting. The YETI Rambler is a representative example. It weighs only 26 ounces (737g). It has a Chug Cap that prevents water from spilling, and its double-wall vacuum insulated cup offers excellent durability. It is dishwasher safe. The price is $33.99 (38,000 won).

Golf towels are also popular. The Stitch Cotton Towel costs $40 (45,000 won) and is soft and long, making it practical. It has a sophisticated look. Made from a blend of 84% cotton and 14% polyester, you can choose from white, black and white, or navy according to your preference. The Alignment Stick is also good. It is a simple tool to check if you are aiming accurately in the intended direction.

The Callaway Alignment Stix costs $19.99 (23,000 won), which is affordable. It helps check the proper swing path and ideal ball position. Next is a glove that can be used under various conditions. The FootJoy Sta-Sof uses APL leather, guaranteeing a luxurious feel and a firm grip. The advantage is that it can be purchased for $22 (25,000 won).

It strategically places perforations and mesh. It combines comfortable wear from excellent shrinkage and outstanding durability. Hats complete the fashion. The Bucket Hat, which protects the skin from strong sunlight, can be used in daily life. The Adidas UPF Sun features a removable drawstring. It comes in white and gray and costs $40 (47,000 won).
