Whether you’re a weekend warrior, a budding pro, or simply passionate about the sport, we’re here to help you play smarter, enjoy more, and elevate your game.

Our Story

Golf Lume was born from a shared frustration: too many golf resources felt impersonal, overly technical, or swayed by sponsorships. As lifelong golfers, we envisioned a platform that prioritized honest insights, expert-driven instruction, and authentic storytelling.

Launched in [2018], Golf Lume has grown into a trusted hub for golfers worldwide. From swing breakdowns to gear deep-dives, we’re committed to empowering players at every level. Our team walks every course we review, tests every club we recommend, and breaks down every tip to ensure clarity and practicality.
