Golf Tips and Golf News

With Christmas fast approaching, the families of many golf lowers will be straining their brains for new, ingenious presents for their loved ones this year. I, for one, have received some bizarre golf-related items for both Christmas and my birthday; socks with tee-holders in them, gloves with score cards implanted in the back and even golf balls that disappear into a 'poof' of water vapour when you strike them!

As far as I can see, with the exception of golf clubs, golf is very simple game equipment-wise. We don't need any special training gear or gimmicks; we go one-on-one with the course, using nothing but our clubs, our wits and years of practice. Truly it is a noble endeavor! Anyway, the point I'm making is that our game is rarely enhanced by the addition of some bizarre product - especially not by golf-themed paper-weights and the like!

However, one thing that we do need in order to play golf (publicly, at least) is golf clothes. Hence, if you are considering buying something golf-y for the golf lover in your life, might I be so bold as to suggest you consider being slightly more conventional than my family, with their strange collection of ideas. It's not easy to find a warm, waterproof and flexible jacket - that would be a truly meaningful present this Christmas. Just look how happy this guy is:
