Bonus: there are some fire deals, so you can save a little while you score big.

If Dad wants to bring the range home, this is the net. The SwingNet Pro stands out with its sturdy 7’ x 7’ frame, lightning-fast 5-minute setup, and gentle ball return that makes it easy to get into a rhythm. Indoors or outdoors, it’s built for year-round reps—and it’s one of our personal favorites. We tested it ourselves and can confidently say: this is a top-tier practice net.

It's a premium sim experience, wrapped up and ready to go—Dad’s going to love it.

If Dad’s a cold one on the course type, the Frost Buddy is about to become his new go-to. This insulated can cooler isn’t just clever—it’s crazy effective. It fits virtually every 12 oz can and bottle (no more guessing if it’ll work), and keeps drinks chilled for up to 24 hours

This isn’t just a tumbler—it’s a game-day companion. The Golf Tally Tumbler keeps water or electrolyte drinks cold all round long, and helps Dad track his game in real time. With dials to track strokes, greens in regulation, and putts per hole, it replaces that mini pencil (and the inevitable scorecard smudging)

Prices starting at $35.99

Golf gear prices can be rough—but Next Round makes it easier to upgrade without maxing out your credit card. They offer pre-owned clubs from top brands like TaylorMade, Callaway, and PING, with everything quality-inspected before it hits the site.

Drivers under $300? Yep. Full iron sets without the retail markup? Absolutely. It’s a great option if you want to help Dad upgrade his bag while getting more bang for your buck.

If Dad’s idea of a perfect round is a quick 9 with just the essentials, the Bag Boy Loop Lite was made for him. It’s a true Sunday bag—lightweight at just 2.5 lbs, but surprisingly feature-packed. It has a 2-way top divider that holds up to 14 clubs, a heavily padded single strap, and enough storage for balls, snacks, water bottles, and a Bluetooth speaker.
