Personalization makes everything a little extra special, so we picked out our favorite customizable golf gifts for dad, from balls to headcovers to bags and more. Check it out.
Titleist ProV1 personalized golf balls
If you've read any of the gift guides I've written before, you'll know what I'm about to say: golf balls are an excellent gift for any occasion. They are something every golfer will definitely use and will never complain about receiving. But if you're looking to make them a little extra special for dad, you can personalize them. The Titleist ProV1 has long stood as the highest-regarded golf ball on the market, boasting the best combination of feel, speed and spin. PGA Tour Superstore will print your own customized message on each ball, whether it be dad's name, motto or perhaps a funny inside joke.
Seamus Golf Hand Forged ball marker
The Seamus Golf Hand Forged personalized ball marker is probably the coolest and most unique item on this list. A blacksmith in Oregon meticulously heats, shapes and crafts each one by hand, meaning no two are the same. They come in three different metal options — copper, bronze or steel — and to make them even more one-of-a-kind, you can add a personalized stamp up to five characters long for no extra charge. Stamp dad's initials or maybe his favorite acronym, and he'll see it as he lines up every putt.
Mark & Graham Leather Cigar Case
If your dad is the type of golfer who loves to enjoy a cigar out on the course, then we have the perfect gift for you. The Mark & Graham Leather Cigar Case will keep two cigars secure while providing a luxury look and feel thanks to its premium leather shell, durable steel construction and wooden veneer lining. It also comes with a stainless steel cigar cutter, and to make it special for your dad, you can add a laser-engraved monogram at no extra charge.
Callaway Supersoft personalized golf balls
If you're looking for some custom golf balls that are a little more wallet-friendly, the Callaway Supersoft are a great option. They have a HyperElastic core that helps bolster speed and distance off the tee without sacrificing soft feel around the greens, and if you buy them from GolfBalls.com, you'll have more extensive personalization options, from text to logos or even a photo of your dad's face.
Seamus Golf County Antrim headcover
Another entry from Seamus Golf here, the County Antrim personalized headcover is sure to draw some compliments from dad's golf buddies next time he hits the links. An ode to golf's Scottish roots, this headcover is made from plaid tartan cloth that will provide a unique look to his golf bag while ensuring his driver stays protected. To make it special, Seamus Golf will add a personalized leather label to the bottom with a message of your choice.
Stitch Golf MIY SL2 custom golf bag
If you're looking to really refresh dad's golf bag, you might consider getting him an entirely new, custom one. If so, check out Stitch Golf's MIY SL2 bag. This bag is super-lightweight (that's where the "SL" comes from) and decked out with all the best features, including a comfort strap, durable bag stand, exceptional storage space and a magnetic ball pocket. MIY stands for "make it yours," meaning you can choose a different color or pattern for all three parts of the bag: the chassis, the saddle and the strap.
Holderness & Bourne Rutledge Shoe Bag
A shoe bag is one of those items that golfers don't realize they need until they have one. If your dad is one who takes pride in taking care of his golf gear, the Rutledge Shoe Bag from Holderness & Bourne is the ideal gift. Made from durable ballistic fabric, this bag promises to keep his shoes looking fresh and new, protecting them from scuffs and damage that may come while traveling to and from the course. Make it special by adding his initials embroidered on the front pocket.
Personalized Premium Lever Divot Tool Gift Set
Every golfer needs a good divot tool, and you can gift that to dad with this custom 2-for-1 divot and ball marker gift set from GolfBalls.com. The lever-style divot tool is made from high-quality metal to help him fix his pitch marks from all those great shots into the green. Plus, you can add an image, an icon or text to the ball marker that comes in the color of your choosing.
