With 2022 coming to a close, there are innumerable options available for the golfer in your life. Clubs, shoes, clothes, hats and books. It’s all a bit overwhelming.
We’re going to highlight a few intriguing options for this year’s holiday season through the new year. Some are appropriate based on the season, while others are just a bunch of fun.
Let’s take a look at some of the products available as 2022 moves into 2023.
Holderness & Bourne Ward sweater ($175 | Holderness & Bourne): This is my favorite sweater Holderness and Bourne makes. It’s incredibly versatile — I wore it to a wedding last weekend but have worn it on the golf course as well — as well as extraordinarily comfortable. Full send on pretty much all H&B sweaters (full disclosure: author is outfitted by Holderness & Bourne).

Prime Putt putting mat ($299 | Prime Putt): There are two things I love about this putting mat. The first is the quality of the turf. Prime Putt calls it “Tour-grade turf” and that’s the right way to describe it. Even when you put it on carpet, the ball rolls so well. The other is how easy it is to roll up and store. I’ve tried other putting mats that were a nightmare to keep in the home, and this one is the opposite of that. My kids cannot stop putting on it.

Ralph Lauren cashmere hooded sweater ($330 | Ralph Lauren): This is one of the more expensive products I’ve ever included in this gift guide, but I also cannot stop wearing this hoodie. It’s as comfortable as material gets and looks great in any and all environments. Light but warm, sharp but casual, the Ralph Lauren cashmere hooded sweater is a tremendous golf product.

TRUE All Day Ripstop ($220 | TRUE): I have yet to try a TRUE product I didn’t enjoy. These golf shoes are no different. They were “crafted to keep you moving comfortably when you opt outside while simultaneously leaving a light footprint on the planet,” and I think TRUE accomplished that goal here. Again, my favorite thing about TRUE is how versatile its products are. The shoes don’t look out of place when you wear them off the golf course and into a cofee shop or on a date. One shoe to rule them all, and TRUE is making a run at that.
TRUE
Swiftwick Flite XT Zero Tab socks ($20 | Swiftwick): I’m always in need of better socks, and these Swiftwicks are a really solid product. They’re light but not too light (I don’t want to feel like I don’t have any socks on at all), and it’s easy to envision them lasting years and years. Swiftwick says they are good for fitness, running, golf and racket sports, and I’m sure that’s true but I enjoy them just as much for lounging around the house.
Swiftwick
Seamus yardage book cover ($95 | Seamus): The Seamus products are all of the highest quality, and this yardage book cover is no different. Though Seamus makes a variety of yardage book and scorecard holders, the leather versions are certainly my favorite.
