Dress Code and Equipment
The primary reason for playing golf at Pukekohe is to have fun and enjoy the company of your mates. This aside, the club does require a minimum standard on what can be worn on the golf course and in the club rooms. These are detailed below.
Whatever you wear make sure that it is comfortable and not too hot or cold as the weather can change while playing for four or more hours over 18 holes.
As soon as you have decided golf is for you, buy a pair of good waterproof and soft spiked golf shoes. These are available at a cost effective price in the ProShop.
Good shoes are as important as good clubs for any golfer as you spend a lot of time walking in varying conditions.
It is important to buy a golf umbrella and a set of golf waterproofs, because play does not stop for the rain. To look smart and feel comfortable, check the range of clothing in the ProShop.
We encourage players to buy and wear Pukekohe Golf Club hats, shirts and jumpers because the golf club makes a small profit and it helps the club to become known.
Please remind your guests of the golf club dress code before they turn up for a game and if you are playing golf at another club check that you will not infringe their dress code.
