Do you think dear old dad may be getting tired of the same old gifts this holiday season? I mean, how many ties and bottles of cologne does one person really need? Even if dad is a golfer, is it the same gifts year in and year out? A new box of balls or some head covers? Don’t get me wrong, these are nice gifts. I’m just saying, this year, why not go a bit of a different route?

I’m not saying you have to go out and spend a months salary on a new set of clubs for the big guy. It’s not about that. But don’t you think, maybe just this one time, he might just want something a little…I don’t know…different?

Last year we mentioned a few things that are a little bit out of the price range of most. But we’ve also mentioned a few other items that are likely well within the range of most, but at the same time, may be a bit different than the normal golf gifts given in the past. We’ve mentioned the Golf Genie, a pocket golf guide to just about all of the shots you could possibly encounter on a golf course, for only $15! We’ve also given away to one lucky winner, a Player’s Pass, a $67 membership which allows access to thousands of golf courses at discounted rates. See, I’ve just given everyone two good, inexpensive ideas!

But maybe those aren’t quite up your alley. Maybe you feel safe with just the same old same old. Well, the least you could do is switch it up a bit. If you have to stuff the stocking full of golf balls, then maybe you go to a place like golfballs.com and pickup a box or two of personalized golf balls for prices as low as $18! Looking for something other than golf balls, but still want to stay in that comfort zone? How about cruising on over to customheadcovers.com where, for as little as $9 a piece, you can choose between cartoons, flags and sports team logo club head covers. There’s enough there that you’re guaranteed to find something the golfer in your life is sure to appreciate!

But if you’re looking for something that’s almost sure to be different than what’s out there (Warning: Shameless plug about to happen), then why not check out the golfstinks store? You’ll find gifts for him, her, kids and pets! And, for now anyway, you’re almost sure to be the only one on the course sporting the golfstinks logo! Plus, who knows…you may be the first to start a new trend?!

So here’s your opportunity to go in a bit of a different direction for the golfer you’re shopping for. For one year anyway, skip the crazy golf gadget and get something they can truly enjoy. Something they may not have expected. Something fresh and new. You never know…they might actually enjoy it!

Shop ’til you’re happy!
