Tech Golf Gift List

Father’s day is nearing, and you forgot to get Dad or the husband a gift. It's likely that the golfer in your life typically just asks for, “5 hours to play a round”. However, let’s go ahead this year and add a little something in addition to that request as a special thank you for all that they do.

In this second iteration of golf gifts for dad (see part 1 - golf gifts for dad) we wanted to get a little bit more “techy” with gift ideas. However, feel free to look back at the original suggestions.

Let’s explore 3 new gifts with a tech spin that will make the men in your life happy, and maybe even better at golf (which is the same thing actually!)

1. Arcos Golf Sensors

2. Garmin Approach

3. ProCheck Compression Ball Tester

When it comes to improving your golf game, having the right tools can make all the difference. From tracking your shots to analyzing your ball, these three must-have golf tools are essential for any serious golfer. In this section, we will take a closer look at each tool works and why it’s a fantastic tech gift for any golfer.

1. Arcos Sensors

Arcos sensors are small devices that attach to the grip end of each club in your bag. These sensors use advanced technology to track your shots in real-time and provide detailed data on every aspect of your swing. With Arcos sensors, one can get insights into club speed, face angle, tempo, distance, and more. 

One of the most significant advantages of using Arcos sensors is their accuracy. Unlike traditional shot trackers that rely on GPS or manual input, these sensors use ultrasonic technology to capture data directly from the club itself. This means you can trust that the information you receive is precise and reliable.

In addition to providing valuable feedback on your swings, Arcos also offers a virtual caddie feature that uses AI technology to recommend clubs based on past performance and course conditions. It's like having a personal caddie with you at all times. This is such a thoughtful and useful golf gift for dad.

2. Garmin Approach Watch

A high-quality GPS watch is an indispensable golf gift for any golfer to improve their game. The Garmin Approach series offers some of the best options on the market with features specifically designed for golfers. Not to mention they look really, really, cool.

With a Garmin watch strapped to your wrist, you'll have access to over 41,000 preloaded courses worldwide with detailed maps and hazards displayed right on the watch face. You'll also be able to track distances from tee-to-green accurately and record scores for up to four players.

But what sets Garmin watches apart from other golf gift GPS devices is its ability to track your performance stats, such as greens in regulation, putts per round, and fairways hit. This information can help you identify areas for improvement and make strategic decisions on the course. 

3. ProCheck Golf Ball Tester

Yes, it sounds odd, but the golfer in your life is very particular about how his balls feel (stop it). The type of ball can change shot trajectory, spin, distance, and most importantly the feel. Balls can be expensive, so it’s important to know you’re getting what you pay for especially if you’re buying used balls.

The ProCheck Compression tester is a handheld device that measures the compression of the golf ball. This allows the golfer to know if that golf ball is playable, if the numbers are fitting for what he prefers, and gives the golfer one less element to think about in an already complicated game. This is a rare golf gift so if the men in your life likely already have one or both of the afformentioned gifts, they would love this golf gift to round out their tools.

Well, that is it. Short and sweet. No need to out-think the room here, just buy one of these three and you can thank us later.

These three must-have tools make the perfect gift for a birtdhay, anniversary, or Father’s Day golf gift. Arcos Sensors, Garmin Approach Watch, and ProCheck Compression Tester – all offer valuable insights into anyone's golf game and can help Dad take his skills to the next level. Any of these gifts would be a hole in one Father’s Day gift for a golf dad. For other options check out our popular gift ideas generator!
