Golfers know that their second Christmas comes during the Masters in April. It's the official start of the golf season, bridging the gap between winter's cold darkness and spring's sunny promise of new beginnings.
I'll admit it—I've called in sick to work just to watch the Masters all day. And yeah, that week really does feel like Christmas.
But you know what else feels like Christmas to us golfers? The actual holiday itself! Even though our clubs are gathering dust in some dark corner of the garage for a few more months, we're still obsessing over our favorite game. We're plotting with our golfing Santa, hoping he'll leave that perfect golf gift under the tree on Christmas morning.
I've been thinking about what golfers really want this Christmas, so I put together a complete list of the best golf gifts.
If you're scratching your head about what to get your favorite golfer this Christmas, stick around.
