How to Design a Golf Towel

Every golfer needs a golf towel. Golf towels are used to clean off clubs and balls before they go back into your bag. You don't want the grass stain, rivets and mud from the course getting all over your shiny new golf bag. When you pull out that driver for the perfect tee off, you can't have it full of sand and dirt. Many golf towels have a wet and dry feature where one side of the towel can get wet while a protective layer between them keeps the other side dry. You'll want a towel that does both the wet and dry jobs.

      Clean your gear with a personalized golf towel.

      Choose the size and shape of your towel. A standard size, according to Towels and Linens, is 16 by 25 inches. Many golfers prefer different sizes. Measure your golf bag and choose a towel size that will not be too long so that it drags as you pull your bag. A short towel won't do you much good when trying to clean your largest driver. Also, as the towel gets dirty you'll want some clean space to use throughout the game. Don't worry too much if your towel ends up a little large. Fold it so it will hang shorter off of your towel loop. The standard rectangular shape is handy. The four corners are convenient for quickly cleaning balls, but you might find that a different shape works for you. Consider adding some additional features like a pocket in which to carry some balls so they get clean as you play.

You won't ever lose a towel that is embroidered with your initials or name. Create a matching set out of your golf bag and towel with the same colors. Celebrate your college youth with an alumni emblem on your towel. Anything that represents you can be printed or embroidered onto a golf towel. A lot of golfers take advantage of towel personalization. There are companies that specialize in personalizing golf towels. Golf towels are the perfect gift for any golfer.

      Attach a grommet and hook if necessary. Some golf bags come with towel loops, and they are handy. Many golfers prefer a type of attachment that's not so easily undone. A hook and grommet won't let your towel fall out of its loop when you aren't looking. Place the grommet in the middle of the towel so that when it hangs, all four of the corners are accessible for use.

      Add special features to you towel. Add a wet/dry option if you prefer. This includes having a waterproof layer put between the layers of your towel. When you pour water on one side, it will keep the opposite side dry so you'll always have both. Add an additional grommet through which you can attach a ball brush.
