In the freak chance that your dad already has everything we suggested in our 2021 Father’s Day Gift Guide, we have a few, last minute ideas that could help make sure you don’t show up empty handed and, instead, blow away your siblings.

Virtual Golf Fitness Training with Par4Success

If anything has become crystal clear in golf over the past 20 years, it’s that physical fitness can be the difference between fighting for 1st place and fighting just to stay on the TOUR. Indeed, the days of Ben Hogan & Arnold Palmer smoking in between shots are long, long gone. Instead, everybody—from up & coming Will Zalatoris, to TOUR veteran (and defending PGA Champion) Phil Mickelson—is making fitness a priority.

So why not help dad shed that COVID weight and take his game to the next level with virtual golf fitness training with Par4Success.

I’ve been using Par4Success for nearly a year now, and I’ve never felt in better shape: I feel stronger and more energized during my rounds, and significantly less sore and beat up afterwards. And that’s largely because Par4Success’ virtual training is tailored for my fitness needs and goals. Once a month I have a call with my coach Tyler, where we discuss how the workouts are going—which Tyler has programmed around the weights and equipment I have in my home or local gym. Additionally, Tyler intermittently tests my progress to make sure I’m responding well to the programming and times the focus from off-season to in-season to make sure I’m not overtaxing myself before my weekend rounds.

Help dad sign up for a free strategy call and make sure to mention that Golficity sent you over when you reach out to Chris, Tyler, and the rest of the team at Par4Success!

WHOOP

While talking about fitness, it would be a huge mistake to not mention WHOOP.

In the event you haven’t heard WHOOP, it can be simply described as the ultimate fitness tracker, which explains why you’ve probably seen it on the wrist of the top PGA TOUR and LPGA Tour, including Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Jessica & Nelly Korda, Hideki Matsuyama, Will Zalatoris, along with amateur golfers also looking to unlock their potential.

The WHOOP Strap 3.0 is a leading fitness wearables that collects physiological data 24/7 to provide the most accurate and granular understanding of your body. WHOOP evaluates your sleep and daily performance and then provides users with personalized insight and coaching so they can make measurable, data-based improvements to their lifestyle habits and reach their body’s full potential.

Because WHOOP can track a variety of fitness activities, including golf, users can understand their body’s performance during a round of 18 holes or driving range session. As a result, WHOOP is the perfect piece of technology to help Dad improve his health and wellness, both on and off the course.

Walker Trolley Push Cart

COVID helped take golf to the moon. Rounds played are way up and equipment sales have improved over recent record highs. In addition, many players took it upon themselves to enjoy golf in a healthier, more authentic manner and chose to walk.

Unfortunately, walking 18 with a bag on your back (especially during peak, mid-summer heat) gets old really fast. Fortunately, there’s a lot of great push cart options out there. But Walker Trolleys takes push carts to a whole different level.

Simply put, the Walker Trolley ‘Cape’ Model 1.5 blows everything else away on the market with its lightweight, anodized aluminum construction, air filled rubber tires, and waxed canvas fabric storage pockets.

Walker Trolley touts that orders ship within 24 to 48 hours, Monday through Friday, so if you place an order now you won’t only get FREE shipping, but also have your Cape Trolley ready to give him before his weekend round.

Golf Vacation

This gift may require a few siblings and even mom to get involved, but it’ll also be a Father’s Day gift that dad will never forget about (and will brag about for the rest of his lives).

Among the countless golf resorts across the country, Pinehurst, Rumbling Bald, and Horseshoe Bay offer some incredible great golf packages.

If you’ve been watching the Golficity Pinehurst Series, it’s probably made you very interested in making a trip to the famed golf resort. And the Donald Ross Package is an ideal way to play Coore and Crenshaw’s restoration of No. 2, Gil Hanse’s reimagined No. 4 or any one of its nine legendary layouts (plus the sporty, par-3 Cradle short course).

The popular stay-and-play includes a two-night stay, three rounds of golf, breakfast buffet and three-course dinner, daily. A Pro Tip from Pinehurst Resort Reservationists: you’re mostly likely to find lodging and tee time availability booking Sunday-Tuesday or Monday-Wednesday.

A post shared by Rumbling Bald on Lake Lure (@rumblingbald)


The image of dad and his buddies blazing a trail into Western North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains for a totally unplugged, off the grid golf trip is a visceral one. Rumbling Bald, a 36-hole golf retreat at the northern end of Lake Lure, delivers this experience via its Hole-in-One and Ryder Cup Packages.

Starting at $345 per person, the popular “Hole-in-One” package features a two-night stay, two rounds of golf on the Apple Valley and Bald Mountain courses, breakfast both days and complimentary, unlimited range balls. Lodging options abound, including the recently updated Apple Valley Studios and two- and four-bedroom Fairway Villas.

Paying homage to the upcoming 2021 Ryder Cup at famed Whistling Straits, Rumbling Bald is offering a limited availability “Ryder Cup Package.” Expert golf vacation planners are available to design an exciting, Ryder Cup team formatted event for golf groups in search of an unforgettable experience.

The Ryder Cup Package starts at $589 per person and includes: three nights lodging; three rounds of golf scored and handicapped; complimentary replays on either course; a team shirt and hat; private, one-hour opening reception with wine, beer and hors d’oeuvres and unlimited use of the practice facilities.

A post shared by Horseshoe Bay Resort (@hsbresort)


Nothing can replicate Southern comfort and hospitality like Texas BBQ. And to help compliment the incredible food and cold drinks, Horseshoe Bay Resort offers four unique courses and a world-class playing experience for golfers at every skill level. Home to three, world-class courses designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. and a Jack Nicklaus Signature, it’s no surprise that Horseshoe Bay was ranked a 2021 Best Golf Resorts in the Southwest by Golf Digest.

So to help make sure you maximize your stay, Horseshoe Bay offers some great packages, such as the Unlimited Golf Package, which includes unlimited rounds on the Robert Trent Jones courses and 1 complimentary round on the Whitewater Putting Course for every night you stay, and Stay, Play & Learn Golf Package, which includes a 1 hour lesson and 9-hole playing lesson for two with Director of Instruction, Bobby Steiner.

After Golficity Travel had the opportunity to visit Horseshoe Bay a few weeks ago during The Masters, there’s no doubt we’ll be making a return trip in the very near future to take advantage of everything Horseshoe Bay has to offer, including its recently opened Cap Rock Clubhouse near the Ram Rock and Apple Rock golf courses and featuring upscale and casual dining options, alongside  an inviting, finely-appointed pool cabana with ample amenities for swimming, lounging, sunning, dining, refreshment and socializing.

Ever since golf became a competitive outlet, nothing brings Eric more joy than a well struck 4 iron. And despite living in NYC, Eric makes it a priority to work on his game and fitness during the week, along with a round or two over the weekend. Fortunately, he’s got a very understanding fiancé who (for the time being) accepts him and his obsession. Follow Eric on IG @hozel_rocket.
