    Buy Pro Golf Lessons for Dad. Help him improve that swing. You can adjust to your budget by buying just one lesson from a Pro Shop or chip in with other family members and buy 3 months worth of lessons. If a series of lessons is impossible consider buying a video instructional series focusing on his skill level. When buying videos buy at local store, so that Dad can exchange it if video needs exchange.

  2. Step 2
    Golf Clubs

    If price is no object, then you should consider buying a CUSTOM golf club. You can have your dad's swing analyzed professionally and a club made just for him. Check out the Pro Shops. You can buy Pro Ship Certificates for gifts. This is any golf lover's dream!

  3. Step 3
    Set up a course

    Set up a miniature, putt putt, golf course in your back yard. Buy a course as shown in resources or use tin cups. Borrow from friends or buy secondhand several cheap putters.

    You will need to be creative for setting up. Have a tournament and a prize trophy. Throw steaks on the BBQ and rent the movie TIN CUP with Kevin Costner. That will be day of fun for all.
