Step 1

To keep up with the popularity of golf, there are thousands of golf-themed novelty items on the market. Ranging from useful and handsome to silly, X-rated and outrageous, golf gifts are popular giveaways at tournaments, gag gifts between friends and holiday presents for loved ones.

Step 4

Step 2: Browse through as many websites as you can, making sure to find the best price and best shipping options (see Resources below).

Step 5

Step 3: Visit the major sporting goods and golf stores in your area. Although you may not find a wide selection of golf novelties, you may get some ideas. PGA Tour Stop stores, for instance, feature gifts like glassware, pictures and games, as well as accessories such as apparel and course gear (see Resources below).

Step 4: Deal with an established outlet specializing in group sales if you are buying for a group event. You don't want your vendor scrounging up inventory shortly before your event.
