What to get the Golfer in Your Life
This holiday season when shopping for the golfer that has everything, we’ve got you covered.
For the Goofball
Daphne’s Golf Club Headcovers are the thing to get that golfer with a sense of humor! Made of the highest quality, yet sold at an affordable price, these club covers are going to make your golfer smile and stand out on the course.
For the Collector
With only 3,000 copies printed worldwide, the first edition, “18 Greatest Scottish Golf Holes,” is a must-have for the golf collector or avid golf reader in your life. The more recent “18 Greatest Irish Golf Holes” has 5,000 copies in circulation, but each book is out of print but available through the website. Still, coming across one is exciting as each copy is hand numbered and the stunning photography of John Kernick, unique illustrations from highly regarded artist Siobhan Royer-Hardyand, and were printed in Italy’s Verona by one of the world’s finest art print houses.
For the Fine Tuner
Even golfers that play at the highest level still take golf swing lessons. This is the perfect gift for the golfer in your life that has an area of improvement or just wants to acquire some fine tuning on their game.
For the Tech Junkie
If your golfer is not one to play the same course all the time, or doesn’t use a caddie, this gadget is the gift for them. Available in a number of handhelds, a watch and an app for your smart phone, the Sky Caddie GPS‘s will provide dynamic distances to the hole, as well as false fronts on greens and slopes to hazards. These pieces of technology are accurate to the yard thanks to the mappers that have walked each of the courses entering thousands of data points.
For the One who Caught the Travel Bug
Your traveling golfer has a few different gift options coming their way. For the golfer that likes to have a lot of background information on the courses they will get to play, while feeling like they have discovered a great traveling golf secret, Golf Odyssey is the gift for them. This ad-free newsletter is not for everyone, it is for the golfer that takes their golf vacations very seriously and does not want to waste any time once on the trip. Golf O
dyssey also offers many deals and offers into otherwise highly private golf opportunities.
The last golf guides you will ever need to buy. For the golfer that is wanting to trek Europe in search of the top 100 golf courses in over two dozen countries, the “Peugeot Golf Guide” needs to be under their tree. Though this is not the most updated guide and is limited geographically, this is a fabulous and in depth guide. The international golfer will want something a little bit beefier that spans the globe: “The Rolex World’s Top 1000 Golf Courses“, is the book for them.
For the “Rain or Shine” Player
Shopping for a golfer that enjoys playing rain or shine might be the most versatile to shop for as you have a few different ways to go. The Seaforth rain Hood and Slicker are protective rain gear for the golf clubs, not the player, and while it
may not be the coolest looking golf gadget on the market, he or she that likes to play in the rain will thoroughly appreciate it.
For the golfer that cares more about the dryness of their clothes and self more so than their clubs, opt for stylish rain wear instead. Most will not spend money on a piece of outerwear that is specifically designed for golfing in the rain. This jacket from Zero Restrictions is waterproof and specifically designed to not get in the way of your swing, with styles available for both men and women. While this is an expensive (yet well worth it) option, other sportswear companies like Nike and Sun Ice make perfectly fine pieces as well.
For the Individualist
While ordinary golf balls may seem like a last minute thought, customized golf balls are really special and let the receiver know that you put serious thought into their gift. And it’s the thought that counts right? Titleist is one of the more popular brands of golf balls in the game and they have dedicated a page on their website to customized golf balls. You can choose anything from initials in a number of fonts and colors to a full picture and even customize the packaging for all of the ball styles they offer.
