Best/worst (golfing) Christmas presents?

[MarkT]

In time honoured-fashion let’s have your best and worst. Didn’t get anything ‘goofy’ this year though I did get this which has blown my mind on various levels, and none in a good way..

I only received a couple of golf related presents....some bags of tees, which always come in useful and a nice set of Craftsman Golf headcovers...

these are great! Is this a football-related colour scheme?

I got a sleeve of 3 golf balls from my daughter (some guidance clearly given via my wife as to brand etc...). Now I normally use fairly subtle markings, a couple of dots by the number.

Said daughter has used her sharpies and coloured them in to look like Friesian Cows!!! Although I suppose there’s no way I’ll be confusing them with my playing partners balls ??

Over the years I've had west ham headcovers for the driver . 3 wood and hybrid.

Last year got world's greatest dad for the other hybrid as the matching one is an X not a number so means can tell apart

This year was a scorecard holder

Foot joy water proof top and trousers for me, along with some puma trousers. Very happy overall

wife got me a foot massager, which on first thought was ..WTF, but its pretty good on reflection, esp after you have played a round

Joint best was a copper My Spider X - no sight lines and a lime green carbon base / 2 bottles of imported Jacobsen brown ale.
Worst was from the in laws, a joint gift of a tea set - WTF?

Only one golf related present this year. An UA top, cerise body, black padded arms. It feels like wetsuit material, it isn't but that's the nearest I can describe it as. I wasn't sure when I saw it but it fits very nicely, not at all restrictive, and it will certainly be eye catching out on the course ?.

Very happy. I am hoping that the days of terrible golf related presents are over.

Didn't get anything golf related from anyone else. I did get myself a Garmin S60 though. And the boy got a set of Volvik Marvel Balls, which are far too expensive for him to lose. It would be much more appropriate for me to lose them instead.

I've just ordered an UA Storm golf hoodie.

Exceptionally brave Ian, referring to the wife as old on a public forum...

Was he the greenkeeper who’s greens he damaged?

A couple of Under Armour golf shirts and a couple of gloves, all the right size but it was all irrelevant when seeing the faces of the grandchildren opening their pressies .

 

[HampshireHog]

The hilarious American Golf assorted sport golf balls ?

A nice leather scorecard holder.

A new club woolly hat.
