Any swing training aid products. Clubs that bend,things you have to put on your head and weighted swinging thingys.

Warrior clubs with my name engraved
Blue golf balls
A score counting device
"Golf University" T shirt or hoodie
... A gift card is perfectly acceptable, just stick with that to be safe

My Aunt knows I usually ask for golf stuff. Last two holidays I told her the dollar goes further online and therefore just make a donation to my paypal account. So she hooks me up with some funds.

As for bad gifts. The cheapest dozen of balls from Walmart

The "Bag o Balls" thst have like 50 cheap balls thst come in a potato sack looking type of bag.

If you Re buying for a serious golfer any balls are a bad idea, unless you know what they play.

For your average golfer balls are an awesome gift.

Good question. If it's in the bargain bin at the golf shop and it's not clothes it's probably a bad gift.

This thread is so needed. I am sure almost all of us has got these things over the years.

Cheap balls, score counters and training aids such these:

Ok, that is my Dad's favorite ball

its ts a solid ball for the market it is geared for.

i would say most of the small gadgets at Dicks, GG or Golfsmith.

 

[Sox_Fan]

Anything non-clothing golf items sold at a store that does not carry any sporting goods.

 

[NewGlfr]

Golf is so individual, I would say anything Golf bought by a non-golfer is a bad idea. If you get a gift from a golfing buddy, they should kinda know what to get you.

Gift card, round of golf or golf lesson should be what anyone buys a golfer, bar none.
