Best towel is a clean one. Buying a golf towel= waste of money.

I bought the most expensive towel I could find as it guaranteed 4 strokes off my round. It didn't work but I think I was using it the wrong way.

I use a free Srixon towel I got from buying a dozen of their balls. I also carry an old towel that I wet down before my rounds to clean my wedges and grips.

I use an old Christmas-themed towel that my wife didn't need anymore. I can't imagine paying $8 for a towel with a brand name on it.

An old bath towel.......for me, it has to be big enough so I can wet half and keep the other half dry. I've carried the same one for more than 15 years, and it gets washed once a year whether it needs it or not!

I like my Tiger Woods towel because I like how it looks. Don't know what would constitute best though... other than the color. I like dark colors because it doesn't show the dirt so much and I'm too lazy to wash it more than once a year.

I use a Cavs towel that they gave out at the games. Its not like I am gonna bring it to a game and use it unless they give another, so this way i get some use and the towel is sporty.

Yeah, cleaning clubs with a dirty towel sounds like a great idea...

I play almost exclusively at 5:30 - 6:00 am so I pretty much clean my clubs every time I swing them. The towel is mostly just to take the loose grass off the clubface. I also use iron covers so that should really upset you.

The pro at the club had a big demo last year and I got free towels from everyone but I mainly use the mizuno one because its the biggest. All of them are tour towels so I use them all really.

I got three tour size towels of different brands which I rotate on. The best one is a Titleist towel, it's really fuzzy and easy to use. Use the towel on almost every shot, so it's an important part of my gear.

I'd like to try that towel - do you have to yell something while wiping your club? Like Pow or ShamWow!

I borrowed my wifes brand new oversized Wilson Staff towel, but once I got to the course I couldn't bear to get it dirty. I used a cloth napkin from the clubhouse and my shirt.

    • Day 596 - 2026-05-20 Played ~14.5 holes today. Starting to get it together.
    • Had a good day today despite playing fewer than all 18 holes. Left a birdie putt on 4 about two inches short. Birdied 5 to knock that one off the list. Birdied 7 without hitting the green. I'd birdied 8 last week. Birdied 12 after pull-hooking a tee shot into a tree that kicked out into the fairway about 60 yards back of where it should be, heel cutting a thin hybrid just barely over the ravine, and dropping a 90-yard wedge from a weird lie in the rough near the ravine to four feet. Had a good chance at birdie on 13. Hit a good drive on 15. So, adding 5, 7, and 12 to the list.  
    • Day 16, May 20.  Today, in between Zoom meetings, I spent some time hitting balls in the golf room adjacent to my home office.  As of this writing, I've hit two dozen, all with a 6-iron, with the same slow swing and lifting arms emphasis of my last lesson.
    • I played on Monday at Rancho Park.  I missed the green with my second shot on the long par-4 11th and had 32 yards left to the pin from the rough.  I hit it to 3 feet (in one shot) but I proceeded to three-putt from there.  Just kidding, I made the putt for a par, gaining 0.81 on that hole (total, not with that putt).  But the pitch from 32 yards in the rough to 3 feet gained me 0.79 strokes, my highest gain on any single shot all day.  I think that's a decent way to decide what the shot of the day was for a round that was stroke play but without a competition going on, just out with friends. Other candidates for best shot of that round (both of these gained at least 0.5 strokes compared to 5 handicap) - a "chip" (using a putter) from light rough left of the #7 green, 12 yards from the pin (uphill then downhill, breaking) to under a foot.   And then again, at hole 13, from 18 yards from the pin in the fairway, putt uphill but fairly straight, to two feet.  Amazingly, none of my drives all day really stand out as great and only two as "very good."  Two also stand out as poor.  Yet, that one round, I lost 0.03 strokes driving compared to a 5 handicap baseline.  Small sample size but encouraging.
    • Yay, back at it! Just a short practice session in doors today. Somehow it is 30+ degrees cooler today than it was yesterday. Though, I am not sure I am in for 89 degrees!!!! I probably had heat exhaustion yesterday playing volleyball.  Just getting stretched out today. Getting some feel back. Mostly feeling like the club works down behind and then out to the right as I do my wrist stuff. Just need to do turn and hip stuff better to get a bit more right side forward at impact.
