You don't have to be a pro to choose pertinent gifts for golfers. Their basic needs are simple: A place to play, balls to hit, clubs with which to hit them, something in which to haul the lot, comfortable apparel, and ongoing instruction for shaving strokes off their games. These needs suggest a profusion of gifts. Here are just a few. |

Perfect) Give tickets to a professional golf tournament (in Hawaii, perhaps). See www.pgatour.com on the Internet for tour schedules. Country club memberships or greens fees make great gifts! Just ask any golfer. Give lessons from the pros. Arrange for golf instruction at a country club. Or give the latest instructional video, available from the golf course pro shop, the video store, or through a golf catalog. Give a hand-held interactive virtual golf game that is made to simulate the feel and swing of a real golf club. Built-in sensors register swing velocity. On-screen indicators let players know which hole is being played and where the ball is located. The game also emits sound effects which include a cheering crowd. Available through Hammacher Schlemmer (Phone: 800/543-3366. Internet: www.hammacher.com) and others. A floating practice green will transform any swimming pool into a golf water hazard. Also available through Hammacher Schlemmer (see above listing) and others. If you will be giving golf gifts on a regular basis, get a copy of Austad's Golf Catalog. Phone: 800/759-4653. Internet: www.austads.com. Give a gift membership in the United States Golf Association. Benefits include a year's subscription to the USGA's Golf Journal, the Rules of Golf, and a personalized USGA bag tag and ID card. Phone: 800/223-0041. Internet: www.usga.org.
