Okay now that the dust - or should that be snow for most of us? - has settled on Christmas 2009, what was the worst golfing pressie that the big bloke in red brought you?

I painstakingly leave anything to do with golf well off my wish list, but sadly that doesn't stop the odd item slipping through the elves' net.

So to kick things off, I got two golf games - one the 'Really Nasty Golf Game' from the in-laws, which, to be fair, isn't too bad and provided some light entertainment with my son, and another minature golf tiddly winks game from Past Times which remains firmly in its cellophane wrapper...
 
I escaped fairly lightly, a box of 3 Titleist PTS Roll balls (wanted ProV1's but shop sold out apparently). I was polite and smiled anyway. :mad:, I prefer a nice heavy old coin.
At least someone remebered the Toblerone! Good stuff! :)
 
A pack of Liverpool Tees......when i'm a United SEason ticket holder!!!!!! Grandparents have no idea sometimes!!! I know its the thought that counts and all...

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I can send you a "I saw Beckford score" T shirt to go with it if you want!

Golf ball monogrammer thingy was my worst so not too bad.

Last year the inlaws got me some "joke" golf balls but they thought they were proper ones!
 
Golf mug with Tee time on it.

I don't drink tea. Or coffee.

Stella doesn't taste right in a mug.


Other than that, some NXT extremes, which I guess could have been worse.
 
My family know better than to buy that sort of rubbish.

However I will expect plenty of golfing tat when my daughter is old enough to buy Daddy a present for Christmas. It will be the best pressie in the world then! :)
 
IAlso given a packet of 12 plastic ball markers with the little peg - I hate them :mad:,

I had two of those! One from my parents and the other from the inlaws. Also had a big plastic score counter to keep my score on each hole I play - How bad do they think I am that I lose count! :D
 
A golf mug with golf ball chocolates in :( haha funny though :D

this the one with the 'golf club' handle? and I can't stand milk chocolate.

and to go with the Potty Putter game I got last year was a mini travel game

- all still in their boxes

- and you have to smile and say 'thank you'
 
A Lewis Tartan Golf Towel me and my son got them from my mother ,HID pissed herelf laughing and said that'll look nice on your Titliest bag, booby prize for Machrahanish me thinks.
 
A Homer Simpson golf ball retriever....I am perfectly capable to ben down and pick the ball up out of the hole...on the plus side I got a Taylormade 3 wood and Odyssey putter - is also my birthday at xmas
 
Can't decide which was worse:
1) A watch to hang on my bag which does'nt even keep the right time.
or
2) A PGA golf ball retreiver.

I liked the 56deg x forge wedge and the Powakaddy brolly i got though.

A quality wind up!!! We've got a mad Spurs fan in our office - we're clubbing together to get him a signed Arsenal shirt for his birthday.......
 
All I wanted was a golf ball monogrammer, a sticker for the car that reads "I'm a golfer with a stiff shaft" and a nice golf mug and the Wife buys me a Titleist Vokey wedge, a new StaSoft glove and six pro V1s!!! What's the matter with the woman??? Doesn't she know that I've got no taste???
