My papa’s birthday is coming up soon, and since he plays golf regularly, I’m thinking of getting him a practical golf-related gift that won’t feel like a burden.

Papa supporters who play golf usually already have everything they need for it. And since there’s generally a reason they like the things they use, they probably only stick with items they’re particular about—especially the better players. Golf balls in particular come down to personal preference. So if you find out which ball he uses and give him a box of those, I’m sure he’d be thrilled. As for something stylish that won’t affect his game, a ball marker might be a good choice. You could even have his initials added, which might make it feel extra special. Marika I just read the other answer and realized mine is almost exactly the same as Zuiki’s! Since I’m here, nice to meet you, and I look forward to chatting with everyone.

Hello everyone, nice to meet you. This is my first time answering. I’m Zuiki, a new male member answering questions. I look forward to connecting with you all. To the person planning a gift for her papa (a male supporter): that’s lovely. I used to play golf myself, so I’d be very happy to receive a golf-related gift. That said, choosing a gift might be a little difficult depending on your papa’s skill level. Skilled golfers can be particular about their golf balls—some will only use a specific brand and model. So my recommendation is a golf ball marker. You know, the little thing you gently place on the green when you pick up your ball. It isn’t consumable, but it is practical. There are all kinds available, from functional designs to gag gifts, including ones that can be personalized with a name. If you choose one based on your own taste, he might really appreciate it. A quick search should bring up plenty of options! I hope he has a wonderful birthday. Just my personal opinion. [P.S.] Marika, I was a little nervous about giving my first answer, but I was relieved to see that we had similar opinions. Thank you. Likewise—I look forward to getting along with you.

Golf balls, gloves, towels, socks, keychains, belts, scarves, hats, sunscreen, hair wax, complete nutrition meals, anti-dark-spot cream, polo shirts, extra-warm Heattech, wallets, shoes, and so on. It also depends on the timing, so only you, who are close to him, would know.

Golf balls with the questioner’s name on them. I feel guilty when I hit one out of bounds, so they seem a little less disposable. Since I also take better care of them, they help improve my score.

No matter how you look at it, that’s clearly a miss—but is that really okay? lol I feel like you should reconsider the search criteria. Taro
