Putt Out Golf Mat & Accessories: I gifted myself one of these early in the 2022 golf season and can honestly say it has made a difference. I’ve tried a number of different putting mats over the years and personally think this is the best one out there. The set-up is incredibly easy, its easy to store, and gives me the ability to really hone in on my putting stroke. P.S. Putt Out has a number of great accessories like the putting mirrors, gates, and the new devil ball which would be great additions if you are really in the giving spirit!
GrooveIt Golf Brush: The Groove-It Golf Brush is a must-have gift for golf enthusiasts this holiday season. This compact and stylish accessory is designed to keep golf clubs in optimal condition, effortlessly removing dirt and debris from grooves for enhanced performance. With its durable construction and ergonomic design, the Groove-It Golf Brush makes club maintenance a breeze, making it the perfect practical and thoughtful gift for any golfer on your holiday shopping list.
Garmin Golf Tech: Elevate any golfer's game this holiday season with Garmin's cutting-edge golf technology. The Garmin golf range boasts advanced GPS features, providing precise course mapping and real-time data to enhance performance. From the sleek Approach series smartwatches to portable launch monitors, Garmin's golf technology ensures a more informed and enjoyable golfing experience, making it an ideal gift for tech-savvy golf enthusiasts looking to up their game on the fairway.
Bluetooth Headphones: Something I will literally never leave the house without are my Bluetooth earbuds! I used wired headphones for years, but after tragically breaking at the gym, I finally decided to upgrade. I personally rock the Google Pixel Buds Pro (which are on sale for Black Friday FYI), but know many people also love the Apple Airpods or the Sony WF-1000XM4. My one recommendation regardless of brand is to try and pick an option with noise cancelation. They make all the difference when on noisy public transport or when flying.
Patagonia Fleece Pullover: Bar none, my favorite pieces of clothing are my Patagonia Fleece Pullovers. I own four (all in different prints) and hope to collect another three, so I have a different one for each day of the week. They are super soft, warm, and come from a socially responsible brand. There is literally nothing not to love about these!
Tickets to a Professional Golf Tournament: I’ve been fortunate to have attended a number of professional golf tournaments over the last few years and can honestly say each one has been an absolute blast. Whether it be attending the US Open to visiting the Travelers Championship it is truly a pleasure to witness some of golfs best players.
Club Fitting Certificate: Something I would recommend to almost every golfer is to make sure they get their equipment fitted. If you are going to be spending hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on new equipment, make sure it is truly optimized for your swing. Getting a certificate from a fitting center like Club Champion or a local golf shop is guaranteed to put a smile on the golfer in your life.
Meta Quest 3 Virtual Reality Headset: Probably one of the coolest items I own must be the Meta Quest. I have yet to meet someone who isn’t impressed with the technology once they have tried it on, and with titles like Golf+ to play multiplayer VR golf, now is as good a time as any to check it out (Referral Link for $30 free to the Oculus Store).
Golf Gloves: With golf brands like Asher Golf, Mariner Golf, and Aiden Ross reimagining the way golf glove look, the gift of a golf glove is no longer a boring option, but one that can really have some personality now.
Golf Scorecard Holder: Used by every professional golfer, a nice scorecard holder is a must have item for any golfer! I’ve been using the Scorecard Holder from Brickley Golf and have absolutely loved the classic look.
Golf Simulator Time: With daylight savings removing any hope of playing golf after work, getting out to a simulator is the next best thing! See if you have any local simulator centers close by that offer gift certificates!
Golf Lessons: Golf lessons make a great gift for golfers of any level! In my experience they are the best way to improve your scores which always makes the game more fun!
Massage Gun: After a long round of golf, or even after a day at the office, there is no better feeling than a few minutes with a nice massage gun. If you have the budget you can definitely go for some of the nicer brand like Theragun or Hyperice, but if I am being honest, the budget versions work nearly the same.
Custom Golf Accessories: Custom golf accessories are a great way to put a smile on the golfer in your life. Whether it be a custom ball marker, golf balls, or tees, these little accessories are a great way to spice up any golf bag. Some of my favorite brands are Liberty Ball markers and Greenswing Golf.
Chipping/Hitting Net: This item is space dependent, but if you have a garage or some space in the yard, getting a chipping net or full swing net is a great way to get some quick practice from the comforts of your own home. I personally use the Rukket sports SPDR Portable Driving Range and it performs great.
Headcovers: One of the best way to spice up the look of your golf bag is with new headcovers. There are so many different options, but some of my favorites include Daphne, Malbon, and Arayne Golf.
