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.

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.

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.

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.
