Last minute golf accessories and golf gifts for Christmas

Last minute holiday shoppers with golfers on their gift list have no fear: you can still buy great golf accessories and gifts before Christmas!

Here are a few notable golf gifts ranging from kitchy to cool!


Axis1 golf putter 1. Axis1 Eagle golf putter:

The Axis1 Eagle golf putter was created by Industrial Designer Luis Pedraza to be perfectly balanced so that it resists being pulled open when twisted in your hands.
A lighter grip and perfect balance = less stress and fewer off-line putts.

With a long list of accolades including BusinessWeek's Design Excellence Award and 2009 PGA Show winner "Best in Show", the Axis1 Eagle golf putter will make your significant other want to get out and practice putting on the green, even in the cold of a New York winter...brrr.
Still available for Christmas by heading over to either TGW.com, Edwin Watts Golf or to the Axis1Golf.com website.
Listen to this great interview with Luis Pedraza and Phil Long about the Axis1 putter on the Golf Club Radio Show with Danielle Tucker.



2. Golf jewelry for the lady with almost everything:
From beginner golfers to those players with more than a few years under their belt, there still is the outside chance of unwittingly omitting a stroke or two after a snowman hits your scorecard.


Golf scoring beadsCombining beauty with functionality, the golf score counter, a bracelet from GlamorousGolfer.com, is handcrafted with love (and crystals) by individuals with mental and physical difficulties. You will not only look great but feel good helping others at this time of year!




3. Adidas Golf aG Strike stand bag:

Adidas Golf aG Strike stand bagAdidas has created one of the most lightweight and durable golf stand bags on the market with its new aG Strike. Colorful and stylish for both men and women, this golf bag will not disappoint! There are plenty of pockets, insulated water bottle area and the new FAS-TEK system which allows a golfer to attach everything from GPS to cell phone right onto the bag.

The Adidas aG Strike stand bag will not break your budget and will give your golfer the biggest golf gift under the Christmas tree!




4. Kodak Playsport Camera:

Kodak Playsport CameraI originally wrote about this tiny Kodak PLAYSPORT Camera not only because its really cute, lightweight and waterproof but also because it can help a golfer to analyze the golf swing at close range. Yes, there are hundreds of cameras on the market to choose from but the little Kodak is created with the golfer in mind. Playback on an HDTV or upload your golf swing onto Youtube.com for the whole world to watch and rate!


5. For those with unlimited funds, how about the Porsche of Luxury golf carts? Costing about $50K, the Garia Soleil de Minuit will make an impression on the golfer who has everything but wants more!


Don't know what to get and don't have much money to spend? A gift card can be impersonal but on the flip side, the golfer can buy anything they want.


If presents are more fun for your family during the holiday season, why not put together a package of golf balls, golf gloves (remembering to check for the correct golf hand), golf ball markers (with swarovski crystals for the ladies?) and divot repair tool from G-Clip?

Adidas Golf Strike aG Stand Bag first impressions

Adidas Golf aG Strike Stand Bag
Adidas Golf aG Strike Stand Bag
Here are a few first impressions after opening the box which contained my new Adidas Golf Strike aG Stand Bag.

The Adidas Strike aG Stand bag is very light (4.3 lbs) and easily lifted out of the box with the help of the rubber-fingered grip positioned on the rim of the golf club holder. This grip should come in handy as I lift the stand bag in and out of my car.

For left-handed people like me, the Strike aG golf Stand Bag comes with the dual-carry strap set up for right-handed golfers (the majority of players) so be prepared for a quick switch-over which took me all of three minutes.

I don't think that this picture does the Adidas Golf Strike aG Stand Bag justice! The bright red color coupled with gray and black are a great combination for both men and women golfers.

The Adidas Golf Bag comes equipped with Fast Action Snap Technology which basically means that I can connect all of my golf accessories, from smart phone to GPS in a matter of seconds. I see (from the attachment on the Bag) that these accessories can be purchased at a later date but the idea intrigues me as pocket space is dwindling on my khakis!

More of a review to follow as I'm switching over my golf clubs to my new Adidas Golf aG Strike Stand Bag later today. I'll be taking my new golf bag to the course this week if the weather holds out. I need to see that this golf bag isn't just another 'pretty face' but also combines functionality and durability on the golf course!

Note: The new 2011 Adidas aG Strike Stand Bag is one in a series of five golf bags in their collection (four stand bags and a cart bag) designed to enhance the golfer's experience on the golf course.

Thank you to Adidas Golf for sending me your latest (and perhaps lightest?) stand bag!
