As someone who was forced to play golf as a country club tween, I’ve now come to love the sport after picking it up again while living in North Carolina. I’ve gotten my boyfriend into it too and it's a hobby we can enjoy together—but it's a hobby that requires a lot of stuff. It’s expensive, to say the least. Luckily, that means golf gear makes a great gift, as long as you know what to buy. Because, trust me, you don’t want to embarrass yourself by getting them the wrong balls.

There are tons of golf-themed gifts that the golfer in your life would be thrilled to open, but make sure you're keeping their personality in mind. Sure, Mom might be a boss on the greens, but a tacky golf mug might not be her style. Opt for a nice new athletic skirt or other golf clothes she can sport. If you're looking for a gift for your husband who air-swings his fake club in the living room, golf gadgets like a Meta Quest to play virtually may be a bit more fun.

  • Return Policy: 30 days

They'll appreciate this sleek visor to keep the sun out of their eyes while they're lining up the perfect shot. It's equipped with 30+ UV protection, an adjustable band and a cooling sweatband, which they'll be thanking you for as they're nearing the end of the course. Buyers rave over how comfortably it fits, too, as one shared: "What I love most about this visor is how lightweight and comfortable it is. The moisture-wicking fabric ensures that sweat won't be a problem, and the adjustable strap allows for a perfect fit every time. Plus, the Callaway logo adds a touch of class to any golf outfit."

  • Return Policy: 30 days

They'll be able to practice their putt in the comfort of the basement. At 9 feet long and 3 feet wide, they'll get a realistic, long-putt feeling. The ramp adds an extra challenge and the sand traps will catch any balls that fall behind the holes, too.

You can personalize a dozen (or more) golf balls to say whatever you want within the character limit of 17 characters per line. It’s a great wedding gift for a golf couple, and you can embellish it with their wedding hashtag.

  • What We Don't Like: not as powerful as others
  • Return Policy: 60 days

For a sport without a ton of cardio, golf sure leads to plenty of aches and pains. But the Theragun Mini makes it easy to rub out their sore shoulders and back pain after a round. It features three speed options, an ergonomic handle and it’s portable enough to bring on their next golf trip.

Best for the Animal Lover

57. Daphne's Giraffe Headcover

amazon

  • What We Like: cute, protective, different animals
  • What We Don't Like: not professional
  • Return Policy: 90 days

Protecting their favorite driver is a lot cuter with an animal-themed headcover. The brand sells multiple animal heads, but we’re partial to this adorable giraffe. It fits most 460cc drivers and is durable to survive being jostled around in the bag.

Best for the One Who Burns

58. Oars + Alps Everyday SPF 35

Amazon

  • What We Like: UV protection, natural, reef compliant
  • What We Don't Like: can leave white cast
  • Return Policy: 90 days

Let’s not forget the gift of skin protection. This mineral sunscreen is made of natural ingredients and is sweat- and water-resistant for 80 minutes. They’ll be happy to have it when they’re stuck at the beach (a.k.a. in a sand trap).

Best for the Walker

59. Clicgear 4.0 Golf Push Cart

Golf Galazy

  • What We Like: easy to push, cup holder, storage hammock
  • What We Don't Like: thick bags won’t fit
  • Return Policy: 30 days

Golf is essentially just a power walk with some swings in between, which is much easier to do if you're pushing a bag instead of lugging it over your shoulder. This one from Clicgear is ergonomic for a comfortable experience and has a cup holder, umbrella mount and little hammock to store balls and tees. It’s the perfect way to be a little more active when golfing.

Best for the Gamer

60. Meta Quest 2

amazon

  • What We Like: fun, interactive, no clubs required
  • What We Don't Like: not real golf
  • Return Policy: 90 days

The Meta virtual reality headset isn't just equipped with fun games and workouts, you can golf, too. Whether you play nine or 18 holes or utilize the driving range powered by Top Golf, there are a ton of golfing options to download.

Best Virtual Reality Accessory

61. DeadEyeVR Golf Club Handle Accessory

amazon

  • What We Like: good practice, useful, better than swinging clubs indoors
  • What We Don't Like: not real golf
  • Return Policy: 90 days

Speaking of the Meta Quest, this attachment allows the player to feel like they have an actual golf club in their hands instead of pretending. This will help with practicing their swing instead of just throwing their hands through the air. Hopefully they can apply it IRL on the course, as well.

What Are Good Gifts for Golfers?

If you have a golfer in your life, you know they show their love for their game whether they're on the green with their shiny new putter or sipping from their favorite golf mug before teeing off. So, whether he's a beginner and needs to work on his short game (with this nifty putting mat perhaps?) or she's super competitive with her foursome (how 'bout a waterproof notebook to keep score?), we've found the best gifts for the golfer in your life.

Where to Buy Gifts for Golfers

You can buy personalized items on Etsy or accessories on Amazon, but when it comes to golf equipment, it's best to shop at sports-specific stores. Think: Dick's Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy and the PGA Tour Superstore. You can also buy directly from specific brands they love like Callaway, Ghost and Sunday Golf.
