Father's Day is a tricky time for golfing dads and also for the non-golfing family members looking to shop for them. If you're a father who loves golf, there's a good chance you'll be receiving a golf related gift or two, but it's a precarious situation to be in as those gifts are not always ideal. In fact, in some cases they are, how do I put this kindly? Absolute rubbish. We have to put a brave face on though to ensure not to hurt our loved ones' feelings.
This need not be the case though as there are some fantastic Father's Day deals to be had on gifts that will be really useful to any golfer. PGA TOUR Superstore has some fantastic offers currently and a wide range of budgets are catered for. We would suggest steering clear of golf clubs as unless you know the preferred specifications of the golfer you are buying for, you might be buying something that doesn't suit them.
There is a wide selection of other gifts to choose from though, so whether you're looking for something expensive like a GPS device or just some handy little gift for a few bucks, when it comes to gifts for golfers PGA TOUR Superstore has you covered. There is a lot to choose from though so forget about those 'novelty' gifts like socks or rock hard golf balls with slogans like "Super Swinger" printed on, and allow us to walk you through it with some of the best Father's Day gifts we've found.
Golf Balls
Every golfer needs golf balls, but not the novelty kind which will only end up shoved in a drawer somewhere and will never be used. Golf balls are a great gift but you want to make sure you're getting something that is going to be useful. There are a vast array of options out there and it can be quite confusing for a non-golfer, but generally speaking most casual golfers are happy to use any decent golf ball and they won't be too fussy. Any of the options below will be appreciated by a golfing dad.
Shoes / Apparel
Comfortable shoes and functional, stylish clothing are essential items for any golfer. There are many to choose from but the best golf shoes need to be comfortable, have a good grip and ideally they'll look nice too. FootJoy golf shoes are among the best on the market so if you're thinking of buying some new shoes for your Dad this Father's Day, you won't go wrong with FootJoy.
Polo shirts are a good gift too, especially for warm weather golf when it's important to be able to keep cool and to not sweat too much. Moisture wicking polos really make life much more comfortable for golfing in hot conditions. PGA TOUR Superstore have a great selection of shoes and clothing for you to check out, but here are a few items we spotted that would make ideal gofts on Father's Day.
GPS Devices
GPS devices have become an essential part of any golfer's armoury and they come into two main categories - watches and rangefinders. Both will provide the golfer with vital information about distances to the pin as well as any hazards lying in wait, while some of the more premium models also offer other handy features like measuring shots and factoring in slope and wind when providing distances to the flag. Here are a couple of options from Bushnell that we have tested and highly recommend.
Training Aids
Every golfer is looking to get better, even the very good ones. As such, anything that helps in that quest for improvement is going to be appreciated. Here are some great options for the golfing dad looking to gain an edge over his playing buddies.
