Golf accessory gift guide that is not another sleeve of balls

Golfers are picky about clubs and less picky about the small stuff — until they get a glove in the wrong size. Use this guide, confirm a size when a product is sized, and you will look thoughtful instead of generic.

Under $30

Bamboo tees, a marker trio, impact tape, or a valuables pouch. These are stocking-scale and still get used.

Under $100

The First-Round Starter Kit is the cleanest gift for a beginner. For someone established, a tour towel plus a cabretta glove (size required) or a mallet cover if you know the putter shape.

The splurge

A slope rangefinder is the accessory people keep for years. Include a note about the tournament switch so they are not surprised at league night.
