Christmas Gifts for Golfers: The 2026 Gift Guide
7 August 2026
Golfers are hard to buy for — they already own the gear and they're fussy about it. Personalised golf balls get around both problems: every golfer uses them, and a name, photo or in-joke on the ball turns a consumable into a present they'll remember every time they tee up.
Every price below is the all-in price for a printed dozen — the ball plus full-colour personalisation — so there's no printing charge added later. Shipping is a flat $9.90, or free on orders over $100.
Under $50: Secret Santa and stocking fillers
- TaylorMade Distance Plus — $41.99. Our cheapest ball to personalise — add a name or a cheeky message.
- Srixon Soft Feel — $45.00. Soft and forgiving, a safe bet for any golfer.
- Callaway Warbird — $45.99.
- TaylorMade Speed Soft — $48.99. Soft and easy to hit.

What to print
- A photo — kids, grandkids, the dog. Crop tight to faces; the print area is about 22 mm across. See how to put a photo on a golf ball.
- A name or initials — classic, and it stops their balls being "borrowed" at the club.
- A message — "Merry Christmas Dad 2026", a nickname, or the running joke from last year's golf trip.
- A club crest or company logo — for staff and client gifts; see corporate Christmas gifts. Branded balls for clients are generally deductible — see are custom golf balls tax deductible?
You can print on one side or both, and you'll see a free digital proof before anything is printed.
When to order for Christmas
Every dozen is printed to order in Australia and dispatched within 3–5 business days of approving your proof, then travels by Australia Post. December is Australia Post's busiest month, so for Christmas 2026 order by Thursday 10 December 2026 for standard delivery, or Tuesday 15 December 2026 with Express Post — earlier still for WA, the NT and regional addresses. All the dates are on our Christmas golf balls page; see shipping & turnaround for the details. Buying for clients or staff rather than family? See our guide to Christmas gifts for clients who golf.
