A disc golf towel is one of the most important accessories in your bag. Whether it's raining, the discs get wet from dew, or your hands sweat on hot days, a good towel helps you maintain optimal grip throughout the round.
Choose the right material for your needs:
Cotton towels – A classic choice with good absorbency. Soft on the plastic and works well for drying both discs and hands. Perfect for most weather conditions.
Microfiber towels – Super absorbent and quick-drying. Absorb more moisture than cotton and dry faster between uses. Ideal for rainy days or intense rounds.
Why is a towel important?
A dry grip provides better friction between the hand and the disc, resulting in more spin, longer throws, and better control. Even a small amount of moisture can negatively affect your release, so having a towel readily available in your bag is crucial for consistent play.
Tip: Many players have both a towel for the discs and one for their hands. Attach the towel to the bag with a carabiner hook for quick access between throws.
