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.
When we release our 2018 gift guides, we make sure all prices are current. But, prices change frequently (yay, deals!), so there’s a chance the prices are now different than they were the day of publication.
Golf Gear
- 1. Personalized Titleist Pro V1 Golf Balls (12-Pack), $40, Dick's Sporting Goods

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!

- 3. JBL Clip 3 Bluetooth Speaker, $59, Walmart
In researching this article, I was shocked to find that both my brother and dad listen to music while they play. I thought there were rules about being quiet on the course! Nevertheless, my brother clips this portable speaker to his bag to enjoy some tunes.
