1. TaylorMade SLDR Golf Driver (click here to view) – If your dad has not yet tried out the new SLDR driver from TaylorMade, he will love it!

Being that it is Father’s Day on Sunday, I have listed a few golf-related gift ideas for all dads!
1. Golf Lessons: Many golf facilities offer lessons from professional instructors. Contact your local golf course and ask about their lesson offerings and rates. If your dad is a novice golfer, sign him up for a beginner’s class. If he is more experienced, he may benefit from individual lessons to help fix his swing or another area of his game.
2. New set of clubs: A good set of irons can go a long way in improving a golfer’s game. You don’t have to go out and buy the most expensive clubs on the market; there are many affordable sets that will help improve his scores. When selecting a new set of irons, choose the correct length, flex and grip size to suit your dad’s needs. Check with your local pro shop to ensure you make the right selection.
3. Round of golf: If you are looking for an inexpensive gift idea, why not purchase your dad a round of golf at his favourite course? This is bound to be one gift he will use!
4. Gift certificate: If you are still unsure what to get
Father’s Day is this Sunday and I have compiled a list of golf gift ideas for you to give your Dad. Golf is a great sport and what better way to celebrate Father’s Day than with something golf-related! Here are my 5 golf gift ideas for Dad:
Golf Lessons: This will improve his game, which will likely improve his mood. Who doesn’t want a happier dad?
Golf Clubs: A new set of golf clubs would be a nice gift for Dad if he needs them. If he does not need them, then you have a couple of options. First, you could get him a full set with the driver, fairway woods, irons and wedges that he normally uses. Second, you could get him an iron set that is one level above what he normally plays. For example, if he plays regular flex irons then buy him stiff flex irons. The goal here is to prevent him from hitting the ball even further! Third, you could buy him new putter and/or wedges.
Golf Balls: You can never have enough golf balls so these are always good to buy as gifts. There are tons of different brands out there with different types of balls designed for different players
1. Golf Balls – If you’re looking to save a little money, try purchasing a set of golf balls. You can easily get a dozen Wilson Ultra or Titleist DT Solo golf balls for under $20.00!
2. Golf Towels – The beauty of golf towels is that you can never have too many; and there are so many styles available that you are sure to find one that your dad will like to use on the course! Don’t forget to personalize it by having his name embroidered on the towel. Prices start at about $20.00, depending on where you shop and which style/brand you choose.
3. Golf Umbrellas – Another must-have for any golfer’s bag is an umbrella! Any golfer knows that the weather can change in a moment, so an umbrella is essential for those rainy days on the course. There are many different types available, including those with your favorite team logo or even popular brands such as Titleist, Callaway, etc.
4. Personalized Scorecard Holder – This is a gift that will be used every time your dad plays golf! It is also very affordable, at only $15-$20 each (depending on which style and retailer
1. If your dad is anything like mine, he loves to go out and play golf with friends and family. How about treating him to a round of golf? It’s the perfect gift for someone who loves golf as much as my father. A couple of gift certificates from the Evergreen Golf Course in Hayesville would be a perfect treat for anyone!
2. For those dads who participate in golf clubs or lessons for his children, what about getting him some new clubs or a bag to hold them? The Clubhouse Pro Shop in Murphy would have plenty of options for you.
3. If you don’t have time to take your dad out on Sunday, no worries! You can always surprise him with a brand new golf shirt or hat that he can wear while playing the game he loves so much! As I mentioned earlier, The Clubhouse Pro Shop has tons of options available for you.
4. If your dad travels for work occasionally, a fold-up travel case for his clubs would be a perfect gift idea! Again, The Clubhouse Pro Shop has an array of fold-up travel cases to choose from as well as some great golf bags!
5. Lastly, if your dad already has all of the above items, how
Basketball, baseball and soccer are all great sports for kids but there is no denying that golf is a sport for life. Here at the Evergreen Golf Centre, we offer junior golf programs for kids of all ages and abilities. Whether your child is just starting out or has extensive experience on the links, there is always room to improve their game.
Here are 5 golf tips to help your junior get better:
1. Grip
Getting the perfect grip can be challenging but with professional help, it can make a big difference in their game. The most important thing to remember while gripping the golf club is that the “V” between their thumb and forefinger needs to point towards their right shoulder (left handed players) on each hand. This will make it easier for them to swing through the ball properly and keep it in the air longer.
2. Posture
Posture can also be a challenge for some juniors but with time and patience, it gets easier! It is important that they stand tall with their knees slightly bent when swinging through the ball as this will help them maintain balance as well as increase power from their core.
3. Take Lessons
A lot of juniors want to quit golf because they find it too difficult or boring so
