I might not be an expert golfer, but I've walked the course with my dad enough times to know the difference between an eagle and a birdie.
I also know that nothing would bring him more joy around the holidays than a new set of golf balls or the hottest golf gadget.
I asked him and the rest of the golfers I know to find out what they really want to get this year, other than a hole-in-one.

Best golf gear gifts
1. Personalized Titleist Pro V1 Golf Balls
When they're looking for their lie after a long drive, it'll be easy to identify their custom ball. This 12 pack can be personalized with up to 51 characters and if they lose one of these to a brutal water hazard, they'll still have 11 left to play!
2. Blast Golf Swing Analyzer
Practice smarter with this small sensor. The club attachment monitors the user's performance and provides metrics via Bluetooth to the Blast app. It provides insights on both a full swing and a putting stroke to improve consistency.

Stuff We Love
Train like the pros with this alignment guide and never miss a putt again.
4. Bushnell Tour V4 Shift Golf Laser Rangefinder
Serious golfers will be impressed by this game-changing gadget. It accurately locates the pin within 1 yard, and the slope adjustment helps indicate when 150 yards uphill plays more like 166 yards. It's also legal for tournament play when the slope function is disabled.
5. Custom Engraved Divot Tool
They'll be sure to think of you when they're marking their putt with this personalized divot tool. For $10 more, you can also add a sweet message on the opposite side of the marker.
6. Gopher Golf Club Cover
Any golfer and "Caddyshack" fan will thoroughly enjoy this clever gift. It's a nod to the film's mischievous gopher.
7. $50 TopGolf Gift Card

1. Travis Mathew Performance Polo
The popular clothing brand has plenty of fans both on and off the Tour. This classic polo with striped detailing will make any golfer feel like they're just one round away from winning a major.
2. Nike Cap Tech Hat
An athletic cap, like this one from Nike, will help keep the sun (and sweat) out of his eyes as he watches his ball head straight for the pin!
3. ABC Classic Pant
My husband has these pants in three different colors and frequently touts them as the most comfortable ever.
4. Adidas Men's Tech Response Golf Shoes
These golf shoes are so popular they literally saw a 2 million percent spike in sales before Father's Day. Crazy!
Best women's golf clothes
1. Sleeveless Performance Pique Polo
This sleeveless top is a twist on the classic pique golf polo. Pair it with a skort or a pair of shorts and they'll be ready to hit the links!
2. Hudson Skort
Outdoor Voices is popular for its hiking and yoga gear, but it's also got a great selection for golfers. This skort comes in four different colors and would look great paired with a simple polo or athletic shirt.
3. Under Armour Women's Fly-By Visor
There are very few places where a visor is sartorially acceptable, but when it comes to golf, they're par for the course.
4. Sketchers Go Golf Shoes
It's hard to find a pair of golf shoes that are actually stylish, so we were impressed to find this spikeless pair for under $100.
