While many of us may not realise it, golf and the military, for decades, have enjoyed a special relationship, with King James of Scotland banning the game upon discovering his troops were abandoning archery practice in favour of playing a round of golf. Little did this Monarch know that his troops would have benefitted tremendously from the hand-eye coordination that both skills require!

“There are generally two things you can do with your head down. Control the flight panels and play golf.” – Aeronautica Militare.

So, what is the connection between military pilots and golf? Golf and the military promote and instill shared characteristics and values such as honour, respect, discipline, integrity, and courage. These two institutions also have a solid common history. The first mention of golf is directly linked to the military as early as 1457, with the 20th and 21st centuries seeing more and more commanders-in-chief regularly teeing up!

Aeronautica Militare is getting in on the action with our latest photo shoot at Killarney Country Club Golf Estate! Join us as we showcase our Aeronautica Militare apparel!
