If you’re already fatigued by the deluge of holiday toy catalogs and filled with dread from the multitude of character playsets your kids are requesting this holiday season, golf-centric gifts are a great way to encourage your kids to get up, get active and get out of the house and on to the course.
I’m old enough to remember when junior gear was in fairly limited supply. That’s not the case these days, with brands creating miniature versions of the performance-tech adults love, and that goes for apparel and equipment.
Mini-me polos can be found from brands like Rhoback, Holderness & Bourne, Johnnie-O and more, while both Ping and TaylorMade recently released premium junior clubs.
Kids can also enjoy items adults love too, like Bluetooth speakers, novelty towels, colorful golf balls and cool lifestyle layers and outerwear.
Check out some of our favorite golf gift ideas for kids below, and here’s hoping you’ll enjoy more time spent together on the course in the year to come.
