Even great golfers always need new golf balls.

If he's into sports like golf, tennis or fishing, for example, consider presenting him with a sporty gift. Most golfers enjoy getting golf balls. If you don't know what brand he uses, ask the salesperson what brand is popular with men. If he's a hockey, baseball or football fan, he might enjoy a team jersey, baseball cap or other team paraphernalia. If he enjoys working out, perhaps a new sports bag to take to the gym would be appropriate. Look for one that has several zipper compartments for storing keys, wallet or other things that could easily be misplaced. An environmentally friendly reusable water bottle would make a useful gift for many men and even if he already has one, extras are nice to have.
