The GolfStinks Holiday Gift Guide!

November 26, 2014 | By Greg D'Andrea | Leave a Comment

Throughout the year, GolfStinks reviews various golf-related products that we feel you ought to own (either to make your time on the course more efficient or help your game in some way, shape or form or to just make you chuckle).

Well, being that Black Friday is just two days away, we felt this would be a perfect opportunity to create a list of gifts for that golfer in the family! Let’s get started…

Golf Books

Two we recommend are Psych-Out Golf and I Married a Nutritionist; Things I’ve Learned That Every Golfer Should Know.

Here’s what I had to say about Psych-Out Golf:

“Psych-Out Golf is a rollicking guide to winning a few skins on the course while driving your playing partners batty – and it’s all in good fun.” – GolfStinks.com

You can purchase your copy of Psych-Out Golf HERE.

And here’s what I had to say about I Married a Nutritionist; Things I’ve Learned That Every Golfer Should Know:

“‘I Married A Nutritionist’ is the perfect book to get you on a path to changing how you eat for the better… And if you’re a golfer, you will definitely appreciate a few of the references within its pages.” – GolfStinks.com

You can purchase your copy of “I Married A Nutritionist” HERE.

Equipment

polara golf

The Polara Golf ball (reviews HERE and HERE):

“…it would appear the Polara ball does help keep you in play (especially off the tee). And if that leads to a quicker (since you’re not always looking for your ball) and more enjoyable round, then perhaps these balls can help golf as a whole. Hacks and new golfers alike should embrace subtle game-improving equipment like this.” – GolfStinks.com

You can purchase Polara golf balls HERE.

Fun on the Course

40GamesFOREtheGolfCourse1

What we had to say about the pocket booklet 40 Games FORE The Golf Course:

“There’s no doubt 40 Games FORE the Golf Course is a great addition to your golf bag. But what’s more, it can really help you get more fun out of this game – which, let’s face it, is the whole point of golf in the first place…to have fun!” – GolfStinks.com

You can purchase 40 Games FORE The Golf Course HERE.

Functional Apparel

onthegreengolf.com

The Golfer’s Belt Buckle – I really loved this buckle as both stylish and practical:

“…once I went through the motions a few times, I began to really appreciate how convenient this buckle really is. And by the back 9, I became consciously aware of the time and (perhaps more importantly) the frustration it saves from rummaging through your pockets searching for the right tool.” – GolfStinks.com

You can purchase The Golfer’s Belt Buckle HERE.

GolfStinks Merchandise

Shameless plug aside, check out our own SHOP to find a couple of choice items for the holiday season. This year, alongside our Embroidered GolfStinks Polo Shirt, we’ve added the Chugulug GolfStinks Mug – sure to be filled with liquid courage before you head out to the course!

Enjoy your Thanksgiving and happy shopping!

Last Minute Golf Gift Ideas

December 24, 2012 | By Chris Chirico | 6 Comments

It's never too late to get something for the golfer in your life!
It’s never too late to get something for the golfer in your life!

Contrary to popular belief, the most popular shopping day of the year is not Black Friday.  It actually changes from year-to-year, but the busiest day normally falls sometime in December.  However, most husbands and boyfriends would likely believe that December 24th is the busiest shopping day of the year.

So for anyone out there who falls into this frame of mind when it comes to holiday shopping, if you have a golfer on your list then maybe I can help.

See, the problem with buying gifts for golfers is that you really can’t buy the main things…clubs.  There are too many options, choices and variations.  In other words, too many wrong choices to make.  So you have to try sticking to the simpler things.  For instance:

How about a box of Callaway Tour iz golf balls? Sure they may run you about $50+, but it would be a much appreciated gift especially for a golfer, such as myself, who would not normally spend that kind of money on golf balls.

Got a little extra money to spend?  Maybe a little gadget like this would be nice…

It’s a Garmin GPS watch.  OK, so it’s about $250, but hey…it’s got lifetime course updates!

Or, maybe you have a golfer with a sense of humor.  Maybe something like this would do?

It farts when it returns your ball!  And after all, fart jokes never really get old, even for golfers.  So combining golf with a fart joke?  How could this gift go wrong…

Face it, we all save some of our holiday shopping for the last minute, be it intentional or otherwise.  So if you’re struggling with any last minute items, I hope I helped.  Otherwise, we here at golfstinks would like to wish everyone Happy Holidays and all the best for the coming new year!

Swing ’til you’re happy!
