What exciting golf trends can we expect in 2024 that will prepare you to conquer the upcoming season? Prepare yourself to take your game to new heights, stay informed about the latest golf trends, and immerse yourself in a golfing experience that extends beyond the traditional fairways.
While most of the northern hemisphere is in the grips of winter, thoughts start to turn to the new year, and with it, the golf season. Stay on top of the latest golf trends with Bom Dia Golf's top five.
1. Get fitted and elevate your game
In 2024, the game is not just about hitting the greens; it's about precision, technology, and a serious commitment to improvement.
Longing to lower your handicap? Getting fitted is no longer an option—it's a must. Let those who know best find the right club for your swing and your tempo.
If you’re investing hundreds of your hard-earned cash on a new driver, or a new set of irons, committing to a personalised fitting is the key to unlocking your full potential on the course.

2. Mobility and strength conditioning for golf
The link between fitness and golf performance has never been stronger. In 2024, we're embracing the mantra that mobility equals distance. Strengthen your game by focusing on physical fitness, unlocking untapped potential with every swing.
After all, hitting the ball further is a sure-fire way to lowering your score. According to a survey by Arccos Golf: “Adding 10 yards or more off the tee helped 81% of those players gain strokes. In comparison, 65% of the players who lost 10 yards or more off the tee lost strokes.”
Enough said.

3. Golf Fashion. Look the part, on and off the course
Golf fashion now transcends the fairways having evolved into a street-style phenomenon. The fusion of golf and lifestyle brands takes center stage in 2024. Collabs between Bogey Boys and Adidas have helped blur the lines between on-course attire and off-course chic. Expect to see this trend continue to unfold in 2024. Keep an eye on what’s for sale at your local golf store and embrace apparel that seamlessly transitions from the green to the streets.

4. Analytics for every golfer. Toptracer, Swing Speed, and Beyond
We’re moving into a democratisation of analytics in golf, and in 2024 we’ll see this trend grow. The tools and apps at our disposal allow every amateur golfer to dive into the world of data-driven insights.
From Toptracer-equipped driving ranges to tracking swing speed and knowing your yardage for every shot via apps like SwingU, knowing your numbers will help you score better, and provide a deeper understanding of their game.
5. The cost of golf. Let’s talk about accessibility challenges
It’s not all rosy in the world of golf. While the men’s professional game leaps from one soap opera to another, accessibility challenges remain. Cost remains a significant barrier to entry. Private member clubs, rising equipment prices, and a shortage of public golf courses contribute to the challenge of accessibility. We must recognise this reality. Bom Dia Golf remains committed to fostering a community where golf is not just a sport but a lifestyle accessible to all.
Looking to kick-start your 2024 golf season? It’s time to elevate your tech, prioritise fitness, embrace street-style fashion, dive into analytics, and let's break down the barriers to make golf a sport for everyone.
