OH NO!!! I Need To Get A Golf Gift For...

By Evan Geldart

There is a wide array of gift ideas available for the golfer on your "Christmas List". No matter if he is a professional who can drive the ball 300 yards down the field, or a mere beginner who can barely get it off the tee, there is something for everyone. With such a wide assortment of gifts available where is one to start? What golf gift should you choose in such a sea of products? No worries, we are here to help you navigate the stormy waters of the golf galaxy...

Golf can be both a fascinating and frustrating game. You can make a fantastic shot one minute, and then spend the rest of the day chasing that little white ball from the sand trap to the rough to the water hazard. Yes, golf can be very frustrating, but it can also be a very exciting game where one well-placed shot can send your mind reeling on what "might be". Could you be a pro? Could you quit your day job and join the circuit? All you need is a little instruction and the proper tools, right? We will now delve into the categories available for golf instruction and equipment.

1) Golf Equipment - Even if you know very little about the game of golf, you probably realize that a golfer will need a ball and a club. Beyond that, there is a wide assortment of choices, depending upon the quality of the equipment to the specific tool needed to perform that specific job. In a bit of golf "lingo", you might as well forget using that #3 wood to get your ball out of that sand trap.

2) Golf Instruction - It's been said that the guitar is one of the easiest instruments to learn how to play and the most difficult to master. The same thing can be said for golf. For those who desire to master the game of golf, there is a wide range of instructional methods available. Those methods that are the easiest on the "pocket book" are DVD's and books. For those who prefer more individual instruction, golf pros offer lessons on the finer aspects of the game.

3) Golf Courses - So you have a club and a ball, you need a place to use them. This is where the golf course comes in. Many golfers belong to a specific golf club, but long to "try their metal" if you will on other courses. What a great gift idea to give that special golfer a round of golf on a neighboring course. For those who have deep pockets, why not a round-trip ticket to an elite golf course in Florida or California. Four!!!

4) Golf Tournament Tickets - We all have heroes and mentors, and that includes golfers. Why not surprise him/her with tickets to see their favorite golfer in action? Golf professionals constantly tour the world entering golfing tournaments and displaying their abilities. This will certainly be a gift that they will remember and cherish for all time.



These are some of the areas of golf gift options available. In our subsequent articles we will hone in on specific gifts and highlight why we think they are great! If you can't wait, please visit our blog...
