GolfSpy Barbajo Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 What is the absolute worst golf-related Christmas present you ever received? Did you get some "exploding" golf balls? That on-the-toilet putting green? A dozen Top-Flites from a well meaning but clueless Aunt? Share! 'Tis the season, after all....

BIG STU Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 The 2,000 tees that I got a few years ago with my name on them. I think there are still 1,999 of them in my basement gathering dust. LOL that one you used you must have used it here and lost it. Just kidding I find lots of tees. This is funny. last Christmas my insurance agent (who owns the agency) sent a little pack of 5 tees For me being a customer ever since he opened up. Now he plays golf with me and he knows I have many coffee cans full of tees. I gave him some crap over it of course. A member of his staff just really done her job and sent to all his customers. I asked him what about the ones who don't play golf? I will admit they are in the minority here. No it was not the worse I ever got I thought it was funny though. Actually really thinking about it I do not recall ever getting a bad golf related Christmas gift Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.

GolfSpy Barbajo Posted December 24, 2015 Author Share Posted December 24, 2015 Another thread reminded me of the Christmas my brother and I each had the same bright idea and got each other the Jan Stephenson calendar.

PlaidJacket Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I've just about gotten everybody to not give me anymore golf stuff. So much crap and I feel sorry that they spent their money on me that way. They are all well meaning though. This year I got a Golf Storage Locker thing. Maybe I'll go put it together and see.

My golf storage locker is the back seat of my car.

PlaidJacket Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I assembled my metal golf locker-stand thing yesterday and I have to say.... I kind of like it. For years I've always kept my bag, shoes, and various other clubs and stuff in my laundry room. Many other items stashed over in a corner and shoes scattered about. So yesterday I reorganized and I like what I see. I have my Wilson bag and my Ping moon-lite practice on the rack along with 3 pair of shoes a few dozen balls and a hat. There was also room to stash an umbrella and two other clubs. Not bad. Now if I'd just get out in my garage and get it better organized I'd be all set.
