We’re quickly approaching the full return of FTL season with tons of golf clinics, outings and golf getaways on the schedule. I truly believe we create a space where participants feel welcome and hopefully can meet golf friends to play with in addition to FTL events.
So often I find myself scrolling social media and seeing past FTL participants playing golf and going on trips together. It makes me so, so happy and reminds me how important it is for us to have this common thread in our friendships. When I started FTL, it was out of a desire to welcome more women to golf through instruction. A big driver for me was always the career networking opportunities that are mostly afforded on the golf course. I never expected FTL to become this thriving community where we go on adventures and compete in leagues, all centered around golf. I was invited on a golf trip this past weekend and even though we only see each other once or twice a year, it feels so easy to reconnect because we have that time on the golf course together. Everyone complimenting the outfits, the improvement in our skills, what snacks we’re cravin’ these days … Anyway, female friendships are the best.
Scroll for our favorite finds this month – from bags for our bags to travel cozies and a great read. Enjoy!

My favorite item to pack for a FTL trip are a pair of cashmere sweats. The perfect post round pant that fits right in for a cozy clubhouse dinner!
Maybe it’s the freezing temps, but all I want is an oversized fleece right now. –sara | shop
I really wanted these pants in time for a Galentine’s golf trip but I found them too late. I’ll be grabbing them for spring! Bonus: They’re on sale and come in petite-tall sizing. –abby | shop
Pens for autographs to your fans, to do lists, and writing your thank you cards to your hosts <3 –chelsea |shop
A great waterproof shoe option – my feet stayed warm and cozy after a recent rainy round! Plus, they are on sale! – kristen | shop
My love for Baggu is well established – but these bags are SO handy. Packing cube, shoe bag, toiletry kit – they can do it all! –sara | shop
This non-fiction novel about female golfers who put the game on the map globally is fantastic. They were trailblazers in so many aspects of golf – from handicapping to being proponents of mixed (co-ed) competitions. –abby | shop
I traveled with the Needlepoint Gurlz this weekend, and was reminded in the pro shop that Smathers makes cute dog collars. I hope they come out with dog leashes sometime soon too! –chelsea | shop
