Okay, So, I googled up Golf Novelty Gifts.

One of the things that "came up" excuse the pun, was this: 

Who on Earth would want this putter? 

This has to be one of the worst golf novelty gifts out there. What's the worst golf novelty gift you've ever seen?

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

The potty putter is up there, I'm sure.

That answers my question of who would actually buy one of these.

If anyone gets this from their spouse, I think you know that divorce is next.

I’ve gotten the little desk and potty putter type gifts in the past (all from non-golfers).  The thought was nice, them knowing I like golf… but the gifts wound up in the garbage really quick.

Got one of those from coworker - I use the “hole” that came with it to putt down the hallways at work. It wasn’t a complete waste

Okay, this is (in my opinion) kind of a cool novelty item. I saw it. I wanted on, but then I saw the price. .... Uh, too expensive. 


If you own your own business or have a boss who shares your love of golf, why not combine your two passions by having your own customised golf ball chair at work. Order your golf ball chair online today!

    • I agree with @pganapathy about removing some clubs. I would recommend removing the 2, 3, 4 and 5 irons for now. Play with Driver 3W 5W 3H 5H 6 iron 7 iron 8 iron 9 iron PW ( you don’t have listed) 52 56 Putter Th 60 wedge can be difficult for new players, but you could keep that If your 3H is adjustable, increased the loft to be more like a 4H. Play with these on course and see if you can get a feel of the actual yardages for each club and especially the gaps between them. It may take 10 or more rounds. A par 3 course is helpful for determining the gaps in the irons and some woods too. A device like a Shot Scope H4 can really help give you your actual yardage on course.

    • Day 12: Same as last couple days, but focus was on recentering aspect of flow. When I recenter earlier I make decent contact most swings but if I recenter late or not at all it’s a roll of the dice. 
    • A couple of things.  Some of the clubs in your bag should be dropped immediately.  A 2-iron for example with what obviously seems to be a lower swing speed or possibly not great swing yet is a definite no-no.  To be hitting that 120-140 yards, which I assume includes run, is a sign that you are not getting the ball airborne at the correct angle to maximise distance.  The reason your 3 and 5 hybrid are going the same distance is that your launch angle is better with the 5.  Loft is your friend. Ideally I would suggest going to a golf or sporting store where you can hit golf balls on a simulator without being disturbed to understand your club carry distances and hopefully swing speed.  With that information we can definitely guide you better.
    • Let us be clear, unless you have proof of cheating, you just sound like a case of sour grapes.  In our club we have a guy who won club titles for many years.  Yes, he was a low single digit handicapper, but there have been quite a few others who played at his level.  Yet his mental strength and experience helped him win in many years when he shouldn't have.  Did he sandbag.  DEFINITELY NOT.  Did he just minimize his mistakes and pull out shots as and when needed.  Definitely.
