Best Golf Gifts: Ideas for golfers who have everything
The holidays are right around the corner. Now is a great time to get ahead of the end-of-year shopping rush to make sure you're prepared with a great golf gift to let them know how much they are appreciated. It can be challenging to find the perfect gift for the golf-loving parent in your life—whether their taste is tough to predict or they seem to already have all the latest gear and gadgets out there. Don’t stress, we know this can get tricky, but we've got you covered. For the golfer who seems to have everything, check out our list before defaulting to an impersonal gift card for your local golf outlet store (though we won’t lie: that’s always a good gift, too).

Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon
The classics never go out of style, and golfers will love this signature bourbon from Elijah Craig.

Designed in collaboration with the brand's newest ambassador, Jason Day, these waterproof golf shoes balance style and performance expertly.

Any golf fan will appreciate the craftsmanship, simple design and Tiger Woods' connection when opening this golf glove during the holidays.

It comes in five colorways, but we love this beige-white combination the brand calls “Toasted Almond.”

After initial success of its collection of joggers and belts, the brand has since expanded to include golf shirts, hats and towels.

A durable travel bag is great for those traveling for golf now, or whenever they hit the road again. It comes in five color options, but this yellow one would be the easiest to spot at the airport luggage carousel.
Vegas Golf Game
This on-course golf game is great for golfers who like to put a little change down during the round. Collect chips for birdies, chip-ins, longest drive—and some of the less than ideal sand shots and bogey situations as well. At the end of the round, each chip corresponds to a dollar amount for players to pay up.
Rhone Commuter Pant
A fan favorite golf pant, Rhone’s Commuter pant is made with a four-way stretch knit fabric that adds comfort to the upscale dress pant. The pant is available in a variety of styles (regular, slim, jogger, etc.) and ten colors to choose from.
