weather Gear
prepare dad for the outdoor elements
One of the great things about golf is that it allows you to get outdoors for an extended period of time.
But, spending four-plus hours in the hot sun can take its toll on dear ol' dad's body. Worldwide Golf Shops
has summer weather gear featuring everything from hats and sunscreen to solar sleeves and all the ap-
parel a father needs to face golf course conditions. You can also keep his temperature down on hot days
with items such as the misty mate Cool towel, which stays cold for hours, or the misty mate 3 personal
mister, which will deliver an instant cooling sensation with the push of a button.

traininG aids
sweeten up his swinG
If dad is the type who is always working on improv-
ing his game and tinkering with his swing, there
are plenty of gift options that will help him either
at home or at the driving range. Hitting mats and
nets are a great option for the golfer who might
not have time to spend at the golf course but can
get out in the backyard or garage to take a few swings
and keep his game fresh. And putting mats are great for
home use or to take to the office for a little stress relief
between meetings. Some of the best-selling training
products are those from world-renowned instructor
dave pelz – not only mats and nets but putting tracks,
alignment aids and mats to help with foot and ball posi-
tions for the various types of short-game shots. Tully said
the orange whip swing trainer is also a popular seller.
"We're doing a lot with our blog trying to pair training
aids with videos so people can get some more help-
ful tips on how to use them," he said.
