As you read through this best golf gift guide, remember to consider the skill level and current collection of the golfer you are purchasing for. We give you some hints and directions on this below, but this should be a significant consideration when making your final picks.
SF1 (Slice Fix Driver)
If you’re not a golfer, you may not know the dread of the slice. However, if the golfer you’re shopping for has ever mentioned struggling with their ball hitting off course, the SF1 (Slice Fix Driver) is the perfect holiday gift. The SF1 has incredible driver technology that can help with practice and on-course play.
How does this club work?
The SF1 features Square Face Technology, which essentially makes it easier to square the clubface up at impact, hitting a straighter shot.
With the technology incorporated into the SF1 it’s a great fit for golfers on the mid to high handicap scale that struggle mostly with this left to right ball flight. The SF1 driver is a unique gift that will help make golf fun again for the struggling player.
Features:
- Fixes the dreaded slice easily
- It can legally be used on the course (not just as a training aid)
- Perfect for a newer player
Sunday Golf Camino Bag
Most golfers have a golf bag that they rely on for day-to-day play. The problem with these cart or stand bags is that they can get heavy and cumbersome to deal with. If you want to get the golfer in your life a really unique and functional gift, the Sunday Golf Camino Bag is a great choice.
This Sunday golf bag is much smaller and more lightweight (3.9 pounds), and it still features a 4-way divider to protect golf clubs.
With a Sunday Bag like this, you can run out to the course for 9 holes, head to the driving range, or even go play a short or executive-style golf course. The Sunday Golf El Camino may not be something a golfer would buy for themselves but after they have one, they will wonder what they did without it!

Any serious golfer knows that this is a great and practical gift to get they’ll actually use.

EZ3 Fairway Wood
It can be hard to buy golf clubs for players without knowing their specifics. However, we aimed to make that easier with the EZ3 Fairway Wood. The EZ3 is the world’s first 3-wood powered by Easy Strike Technology.
Your golfing friend or family member will get the results they are looking for as soon as they put this club into play. The EZ3 produces a higher launch, controlled golf shots, and a center strike regardless of the lie.
Traditionally, 3 woods can be difficult to hit because of their lower loft. However, with the Pure Strike Leading Edge and Precision Launch Loft, the EZ3 makes it fun to try and go for the green in two.
Features include:
- Available in Stiff, Regular, Senior, Senior Plus & Ladies Flex
- Works well for beginners, mid and high handicappers
