A Golf Gift For A Terrible Golfer.

I am one of the worlds worst golfers. I love it, but I can't play. I lose ball after ball. Luckily my dad gave me a bucket of them a while back, and I'm fast getting through the bucket of golf balls.

So when I came across this golf gift I just had to write about it here, because it's a golf item I need. And if I do then I'm sure plenty of others do too. This has to rank right up there for amazing and unique golf gifts.

Golf ball finding glasses. Now if you play golf you'll know how difficult it is to find a golf ball when it's in the rough. Even just some long grass and those balls just seem to hide themselves. For some reason a golf ball becomes invisible when it doesn't want to be found.

So any gift that helps him to find his golf balls when he loses them has to be worthwhile. The perfect golf Christmas gift or birthday gift.

Apparently the way the glasses find those pesky lost golf balls is by blocking out the long wavelength light. The long wavelength light is the light from dark colors like brown and green, the things that golf balls like to hide in.

And they allow short wavelength light through. Short wavelength light is light from light colors, like white. Golf ball color. So you you can see the white golf balls hiding in amongst the grass and shrubs.

Cool eh? Think that he'd like a gift that helped him find his ball fast so he doesn't waste his time trudging around in the rough? And for that matter impress his golf friends with his golf ball finding ability. And probably find their balls for them, and maybe a few other balls at the same time to fill his golf bag with.

Not to forget the penalty strokes that me misses out on because he's not losing balls like he used to.

They were developed by 2 Canadian nuclear engineers who were terrible golfers and who got tired of losing balls, and it took them 6 years of development to get them right.

It's not the sort of gift that you'd give a man who is a whizz at golf, after all they don't need them because they never lose a golf ball. But for hackers like me a pair of golf ball finding glasses is just the ticket.

The perfect golf groomsmen gift. Give a pair to each of the groomsmen, they probably play golf together anyway. So whether it's a Christmas golf gift for your man, or maybe for his birthday, or even golf gifts for groomsmen at the wedding, it's a great idea for any man who loves his golf but isn't the best player on the course.

And if he's a tournament player who needs a helping hand they make a great [tag-tec]golf tournament gift.[/tag-tec]
