3 dozen taylormade penta 5 balls
Nike golf shoes
Ping pick em up belly putter
Winter golf gloves
Almost golf practice balls
Tees
Gift cards to dicks- need a 3 wood, not sure where I'm going with that yet.
Off all week, temp is high of 39 and 30mph winds the next 3 days.
Manfrotto camera bag, going to come in handy this year and looks more "professional" than a backpack. Also some golf clothes including a couple argyl sweaters.
It's 1.5 dozen because my 11yr old used 2 sleeves to make a desk decoration for me - she had my father in law screw/glue them into a pyramid and mount them on a wood base, then wrote "#1 Dad" on the balls. Probably my favorite of the gifts!
Bushnell Medalist range finder - best gift of the year, but that's not saying much. My family has a fairly well established tradition that the adults don't do gift exchanges outside of spouses and children. So other than a couple of cards, that's really the only gift I received. But it was also the only one I wanted, so that's perfectly fine with me.
Return that one. Don't let the stink contaminate the rest of your clubs! (I have no room to talk - Big Blue looked more like Big Blech against the Ravens)
LOL, I'm a Mets fan too so I am used to the pain and abuse related to cheering and having season tickets (Jets) to a losing team.

Not a whole lot of golf related stuff for me... just a pair of shoes, but I love 'em. I got the TRUE Linkswear True phx in white/red/black.
That makes 6 pairs of TRUEs for me (two paris of the 2011 tours, 2011 stealths, 2 pairs of the sensei, and these) although one pair of the tours (my white ones) are "retired."

Welcome to the club, lifetime Detroit Lions fan here .
Back on topic: I got a Scotty Newport 2 Select Putter from my wife, a golf organizer for your the trunk of your car (basically a briefcase for golf shoes, shorts, gloves, tees etc.) and a club cleaning tool from my sister-in-law.
Rarely get any golf related stuff for Christmas- The wife gave up on that a long time ago. She doesn't like the game AT ALL after being FORCED to play it in Ireland as a child. But she doesn't begrudge me for playing because it was my choice. Other relatives know that I'm kinda picky about them buying "golf stuff" just because I'm a golfer, and to not buy the stuff hanging on the racks at Sports Authority or Walmart. Just don't want them to waste their money for something like a "glove hanger" that I probably won't use, or practice balls when I live in an apartment 4 stories up. My golf buddies and I will occasionally exchange small silly stuff that may or may not be golf related. This year they got a set of "those naked lady golf tees". Which, by the way, can be used as ball mark repair tools.
If I want or need "golf stuff", I get it myself or use gift cards for that purpose. I prefer things this way because I put it to stuff that I actually will use or need.
edit- however, saying that- the one real good golf related gift in the last few years was a good quality putting mat. helped me work on my stroke over the winter of 2010- came out in 2011 with a better stroke and sank a lot more putts with MUCH fewer 3 putts. Still use it every other week or so just to keep and eye in.
