Happy holidays from GOLF.com, your one-stop shop when it comes to looking for gifts for the golfer in your life. (Or yourself. We won’t tell.) This year we’ve compiled the best of the best to make your shopping experience a breeze. Not only will we recommend our favorite products, we’ll tell you where to buy them. For more holiday gift ideas, visit our Best Of Everything hub, or browse GOLF’s Pro Shop.
Thanks to golf being considered a relatively safe sport in 2020, during a worldwide pandemic, there are many, many more beginners taking up the game, and that’s great! We love it. But for those who have been playing golf for years or decades, the best thing we can do is help bring the beginners along, in one way or another. One easy way is equipping them with what we think might help usher further interest in the game. For example, a set of alignment sticks accomplishes a few things:
1. The most superficial is just looking like a player. Bust out the alignment aid and it’s clear you’re taking this game seriously.
2. You can learn a lot from your divot. Are you catching more turf than you intend to? You’ll find out. Cutting across the ball? Your divot will definitely tell you.
3. There are endless ways alignment sticks can be used as a training-aid prop, either by running it through belt loops or shoving one end of it into the ground. For just $20, it’s a tough price to beat.
We’ve assembled a handful of great beginner’s gifts that basically every golfer can benefit from. And while you’re hooking up that beginner, don’t be afraid to buy for yourself as well.
