What is CBD, and why is it different?
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of two main components derived from the cannabis plant. Unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD doesn’t produce a “high.” Instead, it provides benefits like relaxation, improved sleep, reduced inflammation, and enhanced focus - all without psychoactive effects.
“CBD is the calming side of cannabis,” explains Golfer’s CBD founder Andy Dixon. “It gives you the good bits of the plant without the psychoactive element”. This clarity is essential to debunk the myth that CBD is akin to taking recreational drugs.
Golfer’s CBD products comply with strict regulations and are safe for use by athletes, including tour players such as Catriona Matthew and Whitney Hillier, who have openly endorsed them.
How does CBD help golfers?
CBD’s effects align well with the physical and mental demands of golf. Key benefits include:
- Nerve management: Golfers often face jitters, particularly on the first tee or during high-stakes moments. CBD can help steady nerves, allowing players to stay calm and focused.
- Focus and endurance: Many amateur players struggle to maintain concentration, especially late in a round. CBD helps golfers “stay in the moment” and avoid overthinking.
- Recovery: Golf can take a toll on muscles and joints, particularly for older players or those with chronic conditions like arthritis. CBD topicals and oils offer a natural alternative to ibuprofen or paracetamol, easing post-round aches and pains.
“For many, it’s about balance,” says Andy. “CBD helps you enjoy the game without distractions, whether it’s physical pain or mental stress.”
Women golfers and Golfer's CBD
Interestingly, while over 85% of UK golfers are men, 75% of Golfer’s CBD sales are to women. Why? Andy believes women are often more open to exploring wellness products and sharing solutions with peers.
Women golfers report using CBD for:
- Aches and pains: Creams and topicals are popular for joint relief after a round.
- Relaxation and confidence: Golf environments can be intimidating for new players, particularly women. CBD helps alleviate performance anxiety.
- Recovery and sleep: Products promoting better sleep also lead to improved energy and mental clarity on and off the course.
“Golf can be nerve-wracking, especially for women entering male-dominated clubs. Anything that helps them relax and feel more comfortable is a win.”
