Every December the same problem comes back. He already has the rangefinder, the good balls, the travel bag and a drawer full of logo caps from courses he played once. Anything you can buy in a pro shop, he either owns or would rather choose himself.
What he does not have is a gift about his golf. Not golf in general: the course he actually plays, the round he still brings up, the name on the bag. That is the one thing no catalogue can pre-stock, and it is where a good gift for the golfer who has everything lives.
Start with the one question
You only need one piece of information: where does he play most? If you don't know, ask him where he played last weekend. That is almost always the answer, and it is a question he will not find suspicious.
With a course name and the city, we can draw his course hole by hole from its real scorecard. Everything below is built on that.
Eight gifts he can't already own
1. A map of his home course, framed
The Framed Home Course Print is all eighteen holes of his course, set out in order with his name, the date of a round and the score underneath. It arrives framed in white wood, ready to hang, from $99. If you would rather pick the frame yourself, the print on its own is $39.
2. The ornament for his tree
The Home Course Ornament puts his course on one side and his name and the year on the other, printed on aluminium that will not chip. At $24 it is the easiest way to make a stocking feel planned.
3. A calendar that walks through his course
The Home Course Calendar 2027 gives one hole of his course a page each month, in order of difficulty, with par and yardage under each drawing. It is a gift he uses for twelve months, from $34.
4. Something for the bag
A towel goes on every round. The Personalized Golf Towel carries his name ($34); The Full Course Towel carries every hole of his course across 16 × 24 inches ($39). You will find both, plus a funnier third, in our personalized golf towels.
5. A hat with his name in real thread
The Embroidered Trucker Hat ($42) and The Golf Rope Cap ($42) are embroidered, not printed, with up to ten characters: a name, initials or a short course name. One size, adjustable, so there is nothing to guess.
6. His best round, on the mug he uses every morning
The Scorecard Mug prints the round he still talks about hole by hole, with the course, the date and the total. $24.
7. His course under his keyboard
For the golfer who spends the week at a desk, The Home Course Desk Mat ($49) puts all eighteen holes in front of him all day. Pair it with the journal and it becomes The Desk Set ($72).
8. The whole set, chosen for you
If you would rather not assemble anything, our four gift sets combine pieces that work together: from the print and mug of The Starter Set ($55) to the print, towel, hat and mug of The Clubhouse Set ($139).
Christmas dates
Everything is printed or embroidered to order in the United States after you buy it, so the calendar matters more than usual:
- Order by December 10 for delivery by Christmas Eve in the contiguous United States.
- Order by December 7 for Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the territories and APO/FPO addresses.
- If you tick the box to see a proof before production, add a day or two.
Plan on 6 to 11 business days from order to doorstep. Shipping is free on every order, and a gift of several pieces may arrive in more than one parcel. The full detail is on our production and shipping page.
What to put on it
The course and his name are the core. A date and a score turn a nice print into a specific memory: his first round under 90, the day he played with his father, the course where he proposed. If you are stuck, our guide to what to write on a personalized golf gift has examples for every piece.
