Happy holidays from GOLF.com, your one-stop shop when it comes to looking for gifts for the golfer in your life. (Or yourself. We won’t tell.) This year we’ve compiled the best of the best to make your shopping experience a breeze. Not only will we recommend our favorite products, we’ll tell you where to buy them. For more holiday gift ideas, visit our Best Of Everything hub, or browse GOLF’s Pro Shop.

Holiday gift-giving is all about finding that sweet spot between too much and too little. It’s an expensive time of year, and the last thing anyone wants is to feel as if they’ve been slighted in comparison to their loved ones.

Oftentimes, there’s a simple solution to this problem: price limits. Sure, setting a limit on the cost per gift eliminates the risk that you’ll receive a more expensive gift than the one you gave (or vice versa), but it doesn’t do much for quality control. In fact, it might make quality control even harder. With limits, it’s still your job to find the perfect gift, just with significantly fewer options to choose from.

If you find yourself shopping for a golfer in your life, finding gifts under a price limit can prove nearly impossible. Golf is an expensive sport, and the options under a certain price limit are scarce.

With that in mind, we’ve cultivated a list of 10 awesome golf gifts you can get for under our arbitrary price limit of $50. Happy shopping!
