2012 Holiday Golf Gifts: Be Prepared this Holiday Season

Is someone you love is obsessed with a sport you know nothing about?  This holiday season surprise that person with one of the hottest holiday golf gifts for 2012 and don’t stress about “what you think they may like or may need”.  Here is our list of the top 3 must haves for the average golfer.

1. Garmin Approach® S3         

Retail Price: $349.99

Every golfer needs to know the distance from to the next green or hazard that lies ahead, so why not treat your favorite golfer to one of the hottest “must-haves” out there.  The Garmin Approach ® S3 GPS Watch is a waterproof device that holds over 28,000 courses worldwide.

The device will let you manually position pins and get distance markers to doglegs, layups, and hazards.  On top of that, it will even keep your score for you.  Know the true distance to the front, middle, pin, and back of the green and never be a club short or long.

There is nothing wrong with the S1 version for $249.99, but it won’t have all the bells and whistles as the S3.

2.  Golf Digest Subscription      

Retail Price: 12 issues and iPad® version $17.00  

Other then the great golf tips and equipment reviews that Golficity brings to the average golfer; a subscription to a great golf magazine like Golf Digest is the type of gift that keeps on giving (for 12 months anyway) and makes a great stocking stuffer.

Other then the tips and equipment reviews, Golf Digest is full of everything from PGA Tour News to virtual swing training videos through their new iPad subscription format.  The magazine comes in hard copy and is available on iPad®, Kindle Fire and NOOK Color/Tablet^TM.

Golf Digest is currently holding a promotion so if you order now you can accompany the subscription with a FREE Golf Bag Umbrella and an edition of the 2012 HOT LIST.  A great gift for a little more then a dollar per month.

3. The Wunderbrush

Retail Price: $24.99

Losing strokes due to lack of spin from dirty clubs?  The latest stroke saving invention to hit the fairways of the golf world is the Wunderbrush.

Designed by avid golfer and Golficity member Joe Bardzilowski, the Wunderbrush takes groove cleaning and makes it so easy you’ll be driven to try it after every shot.  It easily fits onto the existing wheel of just about every brand of push-cart or trolley sold on the market.  The hub connects quickly to either wheel of the cart and doesn’t come off until you remove it.  The brush twists on and off easily by hand or by using a tee placed through the loop at the end of the brush.

The spiral design of the bronze bristles on the Wunderbrush allow for the quick and complete removal of any debris accumulated right after you take a shot to remove the chance for dirt or dry mud to “cake” in the grooves.  The process is very simple: You hit your shot, you start walking to your next shot but before you put your club back in your bag you simply hold the club head against the brush and the scrub hub does the work for you!  In the few seconds you spend walking to your ball, your grooves will be as clean as they were when you started your round.  Brilliant!

To make the Wunderbrush even more useful you can use it to clean the dirt out of your cleats while you are waiting to hit your next shot.  In fact, the brush actually gets better as you break it in from cleaning your shoes and your clubs.

Leave it to a golfer to figure out how to make life on the course as easy as possible.
