Planning a golf trip across Asia? Whether you're teeing off in the tropical landscapes of Thailand, the lush courses of Vietnam, or the scenic coastlines of the Philippines, preparation is key. Forgetting even one essential item can disrupt your rhythm, delay your round, or worse—leave you stranded without the right gear.
To help you pack with confidence, we've created the GolfSG Travel Packing Checklist — a free, printable resource designed specifically for golf travelers in Asia. This guide ensures that you arrive ready to play, whether you're going solo, with friends, or as part of a golf tour.
Golf trips are more than just casual vacations. You’re managing sports equipment, dress codes, and often, unpredictable weather. A checklist removes the stress and lets you focus on what really matters — enjoying your rounds.
By planning ahead, you:
Avoid excess baggage fees
Meet course dress codes
Prepare for weather changes
Ensure you have backup items (e.g., gloves or balls)

Golf balls (at least 12)
Tees in various sizes
Golf gloves (bring a spare)
Ball markers & divot tool
Rangefinder or GPS (optional but helpful)
