Holiday Gift Guide On a Budget

Besides the perfect, sunny,  75° day in May, the holidays are my favorite time of year. I’m a big kid at heart, and contrary to popular belief, I really do enjoy giving more than receiving. A few weeks ago I compiled a group of some of the best golf gifts that should be on your list at any budget. This week I want to let everyone know that there’s some great gear for the conscientious spender as well. Everything on this list is $50 and under.

apparel

Cigar Minder Yes there is a $10 item on this list and it’s the ultimate stocking stuffer. The Cigar Minder clips right on the windshield frame of any riding golf cart and securely holds your cigar in place during the round. No more setting your favorite stogie on the ground or the nasty floor of the cart only to forget about it and drive away. It’s always in the same spot waiting for your next puff. The Cigar Minder is the item you didn’t know existed but can’t believe you never thought of it. Price: $9.99 Cigar Minder Clip

Balls

Swannies Goat Tee Pay homage to the GOAT, err…Tiger. This super soft cotton tee tells everyone who you think the greatest of all time is, and does it fashionably. Price: $26.99 Buy The Goat Tee Here

Puma Mini PopTop Speaker How about another stocking stuffer? The Mini PopTop Speaker from Puma packs a big sound in a device small enough to fit in your golf bag or hang off your backpack. It’s the perfect companion for the course, beach, or boat as it also contains a built-in bottle opener. Pair it to your phone via Bluetooth and enjoy 5 hours of music on a single charge. Price: $39.99 Puma PopTop

Callaway

Callaway Basic Training Bundle Give your golfer the gift of practice this year. This bundle from Callaway features 3 swing aids that actually work and aren’t some junk gimmick that you’ll find in Tin Cup’s RV. The Alignment sticks help proper setup and swing plane, the Power Platform reinforces efficient weight transfer, and the Swing Easy Band aids in keeping your body and arms in sync throughout the swing.

Women’s Skechers Go Golf Max Known for walking comfort, Skechers lets you hit the links in soft, cool, and supportive comfort with the Go Golf Max. The soft mesh upper is breathable but will still repel moisture and the Goga Max insole offers tremendous cushion and rebound tech with each step and swing.

Equipment

Callaway ChromeSoft X LS Golf Balls Delivering the same distance and speed expected from the ChromeSoft family, the LS also brings Low Spin to the table. So it’s not just a clever name. Lower spin from tee to green means tighter dispersion and a stronger, more penetrating flight. The urethane cover and 4-piece construction still offers exceptional feel and holding power with short game shots. Price: $47.99 Buy the ChromeSoft X LS here
