Customizable golf gear has never been more accessible.

It’s that special time of year when golfers get all kinds of golf gifts from their loving families. Some of it is really good, but let’s be honest — most of it is really bad. No one needs golf-themed pens or office equipment.

Let’s prep now and do our best not to go through another brutal holiday season where you have to explain to auntie that generic golf balls with your alma mater’s logo on it aren’t worth her money. If she really wants you to enjoy a personal golf gift, she needs to do a bit more research on the personalized gear that golfers really love.

Now is the time to drop hints. Hey, I don’t need a lot of golf gear. Maybe just this golf gear! How about that?

Sometimes, the more obvious the better. Below are four examples of easily accessible, extremely fashionable personalized golf gear. Have some fun with it. You can check out more from GOLF’s Pro Shop here. And for a little bit of everything, our staff has chosen the Best of Everything, which you can peruse here.

Seamus hand-forged ball mark

Be careful with this one — they’re tiny enough to get lost in a stocking. But if the personalization is on-point, you might just win the holidays. Most golfers like to keep their gear simple, straightforward and consistent. If the personalization is perfect, they’ll have a ball-marker they’ll use the rest of their life.

$29

Each Seamus ball mark is then sanded, buffed, and tumbled on an individual basis, and the results are a completely different and unique ball mark for each golfer. Choose to add your own custom stamp (5 characters max) at no charge for an even more personal ball mark.

TP5X Personalized Golf Balls

Major manufacturers like TaylorMade have made it easy for custom orders to fit with any occasion. Not just the holidays. But unlike most other personalized golf gear, the actual customization of a dozen elite golf balls won’t cost much more than a couple dollars extra.

$52

There’s a reason TP5x is the Most Complete Tour Ball in Golf, because it’s built like no other. As the only 5-layer Tour ball, it delivers unmatched performance off the tee, from the fairway and around the green. On any shot the golf course throws at you, there’s one ball that’s better for all.

FootJoy MyJoys

OK these might be a bit trickier to stuff in a stocking, but they are among the most customizable gear you kind find online. The extremely intuitive MyJoys system lays it all out for you — all you need to do is pick the colors and decide what you’d like printed on the side. Don’t overthink that part, though. Your initials will do just fine. No one needs their shoes to speak for them.

$200+

The Premiere Series Packard offers a modern interpretation of the classic saddle design, with a performance VersaTrax+ outsole and Pulsar cleats for maximum traction. Shop our MyJoys Customs styles or create your own unique design, complete with custom monogramming or logos.

Personalized golf tees

OK, this one might be right up auntie’s alley. Tees are that thing in golf you never really need until you desperately need. Well, you can take all that need right out of mind with one $50 order of personalized tees. 250 tees had better last you all 2022, 2023 and 2024. By then, you might just be sick of them and be ready for a new package of differently personalized pegs.
