California golf apparel FAQ#

What should I wear golfing in California?

It depends on where you play. On the coast, a polo with a half-zip for marine-layer mornings; in the desert, a light polo and a cap, with a layer for winter sunrises.

Why is it cool on California coastal courses in summer?

The marine layer, a band of cool, moist air off the ocean, often keeps coastal mornings cool and gray in late spring and summer.
