Hi feeblecat - I think a voucher too. All my boys play golf and like to play with equipment etc that is right for them. My eldest son (20) is also club champion this year and plays off 3 so I know that the equipment is expensive and also a matter of choice. At our golf club when you win a competition you get credit with the club shop that you can save up to get what you want. So it might be an idea to get a voucher from his own club shop as he may have credit already so can buy something more expensive. What a lovely Mother in Law you are to try and get a thoughtful gift. Good luck sue

Yes, that's exactly what happens - he gets credit for the club shop. Come to think of it I dont think he's had it yet - I think the award ceremony thingy is in November - i better find out, i'll be babysitting!

Agree with the couple that have said avoid specific golf gifts. AS a low handicapper he almost certainly won't use stuff that he doesn't regularly use.

I also absolutely agree with either a golf shop voucher as his club or one of the large golf shops if you have nearby.

Depending on how much you wish to be paying I would forget the top name clubs like Wentworth for a round as you will be looking at several hundred pounds a round.

probably more realistic is maybe Golfbreak.com vouchers which he can use towards a golf break with friends?

His fellow club members all started using sun glasses because his irons were so bright and his balls so white. £19.99.

Sounds like the perfect wedding anniversary present, the strategically positioned sun glasses on the bedside cabinet.

My OH is a keen golfer. My most successful presents have been a handwritten voucher from me, offering the sum of £x towards a good putter that I knew he wanted. Another was a hand made voucher for £x for / towards a round of golf at a famous course nearby that he couldn't otherwise afford to play. Like my OH, he'll have credit building up at his golf club pro shop from winning competitions, and he'd use this for the boring stuff like replacing leaking golf shoes but it may not be enough for a new bag or the Sat Nav equivalent for golf courses, and you could top this up. My OH never used the golf lesson vouchers, has millions of hats and finds more golf balls than he loses (they get washed in the dishwasher, bagged up in 6s by name nike, callaway etc, and get sold for charity in the ladies locker room).
