No golfer is complete without an odd and eccentric
arrangement of strange accessories to help him get through the day. Golfers
certainly have a lot to choose from, since it is one of the most accessorized
sports out there. If you are looking for some nice golfing accessories, either
for yourself or as a gift for a golfing loved one, you will have no problem
finding something that will tickle your fancy. Here I will discuss some of the
most practical golf accessories. There are many more than the ones that will be
discussed here, but most of them are hardly able to be classified as useful. If
you are looking for more of a gag gift, you may want to look elsewhere.
However, if your needs include a useful golf accessory, read on.
Motorized golf caddies are devices that will carry the
golfer’s clubs alongside him as he walks. Rather than straining himself by
carrying the clubs manually, he can simply enjoy a stroll through the scenic
golf course while the motorized caddy does most of the hard work. Before you
buy one of these, you should be sure that the recipient will have a need for
it. Some golfers prefer to leave their clubs in their golf cart, or to simply
hire a human caddy. Find out about the golfer’s habits, and decide for yourself
whether you think he would find a motorized caddy useful or not. The prices can
run fairly high, so you want to make sure that the enjoyment is worth the
money.
Home training equipment is also very popular in the golfing
community. There are many different devices that are meant to teach golfers to
swing with better technique in the comfort of their own homes. These are known
as golf swing trainers, and are generally more on the expensive side than any
other golf gift. There are quite a few different choices, from the basic home
putting green to more advanced accelerometer-enhanced clubs that will detect
your swinging angles and speed. Again, this is not the kind of gift that you
should buy out of nowhere. Discuss it with the person you would like to give it
to, and make sure that it would be put to good use.
Overall, you should know that golfers are a fairly easy
crowd to please. Anyone who is happy just hitting balls with sticks all day
will have no problem entertaining themselves with any of the gimmicky or
novelty gifts that you can come up with. Therefore if you are trying to find
one of the top golf accessories for yourself or a golfing friends or family
member, you shouldn’t worry too much about finding the perfect thing. As long
as they have decent clubs, they should be set. Golf clubs are by far the most
expensive part of a golfer’s arsenal of items, and the most important part as
well. If you want to buy golf clubs for someone, you would probably do better
to give them a gift certificate or coupon so that they can choose them on their
own.
Another gift that is great for golfers is some sort of trip
to a golf course that they would really enjoy going to. Sometimes an avid
golfer doesn’t have the time (or doesn’t give himself enough of a break) to
visit some of the nicer or more exotic golfing locations. If you really want to
surprise and delight a golfer, you should plan a golfing vacation to one of the
nicer locations in the world. Maybe a place where you can golf for most of the
day, then swim in the ocean for a few hours before heading to your deluxe
hotel. Usually if you plan it right you can keep the cost from being too
insanely high, but most of the time it is better to indulge yourself and spend
what it takes to have a great time.
