Golfers are typically the type to treat themselves to the things they want, which can be challenging for gift givers around the holiday gift-giving season. It’s not easy to find gifts for golfers who have everything. Many default to wrapping up gift cards, tacky golf club-themed desk decor or the dreaded generic sleeve of golf balls, but why not dig a little deeper this year and give something unexpected. With this list, we’ll help you find something for anybody, and things you’ll actually enjoy. All products featured on Golf Digest are independently selected by our editors.
