FATHER’S DAY: The ULTIMATE Golf Gift Ideas for the All Dads

Disclaimer:  Order now, some of these items may take time to get in to you due to COVID-19 shipping delays!

Getting the right golf gift on Father’s Day this year comes with added pressure. Indeed, while social distancing requirements vastly vary as you go from state to state, it is all but guaranteed that things are not “back to normal” for anyone just yet.

As a result, here are some Father’s Day gifts that allow golfers to enjoy the most of their game, despite COVID-related restrictions and/or frustration.

Good Walk Coffee Company

It’s been approximately 6 weeks since most of us started “Working” From Home. While it’s certainly a nice change to go to the “office” in pajamas, the biggest drawback is that I’ve quickly realized how bad my morning, instant-brew coffee tastes. Adding insult to injury is that most of us are drinking more coffee than normal, and there’s nowhere to go and get a quality cup.

Good Walk Coffee Company allows every golfer to enjoy a quality cup of coffee, whether they’re rushing to an early morning tee time or just trying to start their day. Available in Whole Bean or Ground, Good Walk utilizes fair trade beans to prepare their various roast options at their award-winning facilities in Seattle, WA and Oakland, CA, which includes their best-seller Breakfast Ball Colombia Medium Roast, Clubhouse South America Dark Roast and Dew Sweeper Organic French Roast Blend.

And for coffee addicts (or caffeine dependent), Good Walk offers a 5 lb “Staff Bag” option or a 3 Month Subscription Gift Pack. And because each bag receives a final nitrogen flush before being packed and sealed, your coffee will remain fresh until you’re ready for it.

The Clover Whiskey

For when your dad needs something stronger than Good Walk, there’s always whiskey.

The Clover Whiskey Collection features three distinct single-barrel, straight whiskeys distilled with excellence and integrity in honor of the late great Bobby Jones. While the collection was originally allocated only to the finest clubs and resorts, such as Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club and Lodge, East Lake Golf Club and Pinehurst Resort, The Clover has now opened its distribution across the country so golfers across the country can enjoy its three expressions:

• Single Barrel Straight Bourbon – Aged 4 years, the Straight Bourbon features a full-bodied and well-balanced flavor that presents a subtle aroma of vanilla and oak and a taste of deep caramel, vanilla and a hint of citrus orange with a soft lingering finish of caramel, vanilla and light oak.
• Single-Barrel Straight Tennessee Bourbon – Aged 10 years, the Tennessee Bourbon treats consumers to an exceptionally rich flavor and incredibly smooth finish. With an aroma of toasted oak and a taste of caramel, forward vanilla and a slight char. However, most noteworthy about the Tennessee Bourbon is the Lincoln County Process, where the whiskey is steeped in maple sugar-infused charcoal chips before it enters the cask. The final result is a complex aroma and slight char, and the process beautifully mellows the whiskey.
• Single Barrel Straight Rye – Aged 4 years, the Straight Rye’s aroma delivers hints of spice and subtle oak, with flavor notes of pepper spice and rye balanced with warm lingering caramel and a hint of cherry in the finish.

Regardless if dad’s a “whiskey drinker” or not, the golfer in him will appreciate the quality craftsmanship and nod to the only golfer to achieve the original grand slam: Bobby Jones

Titleist Gloves and Balls

Due to COVID requirements, there’s a strong possibility that your local Golf Galaxy and PGA TOUR Superstore has been closed and is running low on inventory. So while courses are finally opening back up, there’s also a high likelihood that dad needs to restock on the golf perishables: golf gloves, balls and tees.

Fortunately, you can stock up on these things for dad and replace that crusty glove (the one with holes in the thumb and palm) and random, shag balls with a new, fresh Players glove and a dozen ProV1s.

And if you purchase three dozen Pro V1, Pro V1x or AVX golf balls (so maybe 2 for dad and 1 for you) before May 17th, you’ll receive a free fourth dozen of the same golf ball.

STITCH Golf

Buying clubs is always a dangerous game to play. Instead, help breath a little life into dad’s bag by ditching the played out OEM headcovers and getting something unique:

No matter if dad likes leather or knits, plays a blade or mallet style putter, or needs to shield his alignment sticks, STITCH has a plethora or premium options that have found their ways into the bags of more than 90 PGA TOUR pros, including Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas and Justin Rose.

And if dad’s bag is already outfitted with his lucky headcovers, STITCH also has a collection of golf gear—premium, lightweight carry bags, caddie towels, flasks and shoe bags—apparel and travel bags to help ensure dad has everything he could need for that next golf trip, whether it’s to the local, favorite or the international trip with the boys.

Rapsodo Golf Mobile Launch Monitor

If your dad happens to be a range rat and is looking for any edge that he can get on his playing partners, then knowing the distances for all of his clubs can be the difference between breaking 80 and paying out bets to everybody else. You seen Mike and Frank have fun with the Rapsodo MLM out on the course quite often:

THE ENTIRE FAIRWAY IS AN ISLAND

No Description

The Rapsodo Mobile Launch Monitor (MLM) transforms your smartphone into a portable launch monitor that records your swing and provides data metrics like distance, ball speed, club head speed, smash factor, launch angle and launch direction.

No more spending boring hours on the range bashing balls or arguing with your group about who hit their drive the furthest. With the MLM, even dad can pair his smartphone within 30 seconds and be provided with quality data that can give focus to a practice session and end the long drive debate.

Use code ‘golficityMLM’ at checkout to get unlimited shot storage data, which is a $100 value.

Walker Trolleys

While most states have decided to open up their golf courses, many have decided that they will not allow golfers to use carts (except under limited circumstances). While walking the course is certainly great exercise, the experience can be soured by carrying a heavy bag up and down some hills.

Walker Trolleys is the perfect blend of traditional and modern styling, with ample supplemental storage space. Indeed, the leather and anodized aluminum construction results in a durable foundation that sits atop three, air-filled tires that seamlessly roll with minimum disturbance.

Additionally, the dual, waxed canvas storage spaces, located at the handlebars and underneath the cart between the three legs, provide plenty of space for your GPS, rangefinder, smartphone, scorecard, spare tees and balls and, perhaps most relevant right now, water bottles, snacks and, on those colder days, a bottle of Clover Whiskey.

And the pièce de résistance: the Walker Trolley has also been designed to fold up and compactly fit in your trunk alongside your golf bag.

FlightScope Mevo / Mevo+ Launch Monitors

Arguably the second hottest golf product right now, behind push carts, is the affordable golf simulator system. While systems like Trackman, Foresight and TruGolf command prices that rival the cost of a brand new Mini Cooper, FlightScope’s Mevo and Mevo+ systems both costs less than 10% of that.

For those unfamiliar with the FlightScope Mevo products, both are doppler radar launch monitors that are capable of capturing invaluable data indoors and outdoors.

The original, smaller Mevo is relatively the same size as a smartphone, albeit thicker, but is capable of carry distance, club head speed, smash factor, apex height, flight time, ball speed, spin rate and vertical launch angle.

Meanwhile, the larger Mevo+ is approximately the same size as small e-reader, but includes a camera to record swing video and is capable of collecting the same data points as the Mevo, in addition to horizontal launch angle, lateral landing, angle of attack, total distance, roll distance, spin axis, spin loft and shot shope.

Furthermore, the enhanced capability of the Mevo+ allows golfers to play a simulated round of golf on 5 E6 Connect golf courses—Aviara, Stone Canyon, Wade Hampton, Sanctuary and Belfry—and 17 practice ranges.

As a result, both the Mevo and Mevo+ will allow dad to keep his game in top form, if not help advance it, on days he can’t secure a round or the weather isn’t cooperating.

Ok, time to get shopping, and again be sure you hurry up and order anything during these times in order to have in in house for Father’s Day!
