Tin Cup Stencils. Snap. “Give Me Another Ball.”

What do you draw on your golf ball to identify it as yours? I’ve been known to draw dots on mine, initials, or use Golf Dotz. These days, I’m using my Tin Cup martini stencil to make my ball my own. These handy little stencils will make great stocking stuffers or even a nice Christmas gift in these tough times. Of course, Tin Cup has a great sale going on with a discount running from Black Friday through Cyber Monday, and the selection just keeps growing!

What’s your favorite symbol, logo, school team or cause? Tin Cup probably has you covered. If not, they also do custom stencils! (hmm… I wonder if they can do a Golf Chick logo!)

I like my martini dry, not at the bottom of a lake. 

If you have read much on this blog or follow my twitter feed, you probably guessed I’d have the martini stencil. I’m kind of predictable in that way, I suppose. Clearly I don’t have the patience to draw them with multiple pens and make it look like an actual glass with liquid and olives and everything. Also, I figure as soon as I spend that much time drawing on a single golf ball, it’s doomed to wind up at the bottom of a lake at its very next opportunity. This thought leads me to presume the naming of the product included consideration of that famous scene at the end of the movie Tin Cup in which Roy McAvoy hits ball after ball into the lake on the last hole at the U.S. Open. Yes, I realize the product is literally a sort of tin cup, but I won’t believe there’s not more to it than that. :)

I thought the whole stencil idea was a fun one but until I tried one for myself, I had no idea how much detail they could achieve! With the fine point Sharpie pen, it’s amazing how precise the images turn out to be. I never imagined that little olive pick would turn out so sharp. You can see some more of that incredible detail in this pic of  a group of some of the other standard designs they offer.

There are several other designs I want but I think my next  one is going to be that jolly roger. Or maybe the wine glass. Or maybe the dog. Ahh, I’ll probably end up with all of them. Heehee. They also come in themed packages, and with a handy little pouch to keep it clipped on or in your golf bag.

Want a 20% discount? Get one when you purchase anything on www.tin-cup.com from black Friday through Cyber Monday. Plus, you’ll get free domestic USPS shipping on purchases of $39 or more. Have fun shopping and getting that perfect little gift for your favorite golfer. Might as well throw one in for yourself while you’re at it. Which one’s it going to be?

Photo ball markers

Photo ball marker backAbove are some of the fabulous ball markers I’ve gotten from PBM. The necklace pictured is my own magnetic necklace, not sold by PBM but they do sell some beautiful styles of their own. One thing I really like is that the back of the ball markers have that handy arrow for when you have to move your marker out of someone else’s putting line. You simply flip over your marker and point the arrow in the direction you need to move it back to your spot so you don’t forget. Always a nice feature of a ball marker, in my opinion!

If you haven’t already clicked off this page to go shopping at PBM, happy holidays and happy shopping!

Holiday Golf Gift Idea for Chicks

Looking for something special for the golf chick in your life for Christmas or another holiday? Try this!

It seems like when I’m shopping for golf chicks, it’s difficult to find something beyond the usual array of equipment, clothing and gadgets. It’s rare to come across something truly unique AND useful. Did I mention affordable? That’s right – if you’re one of the lucky ones with a large holiday gift budget, this makes a great stocking stuffer. But if you’re like a lot of people right now and are spending less this year on presents, this makes a great standalone gift!

It’s sparkly, girly, practical and fabulous, and I bet you’d be hard pressed to find a golf chick who wouldn’t enjoy receiving a Putterflys ball marker necklace. Beautiful Swarovski crystals adorn the ball marker to provide the sparkle. The marker is easy to slide off the enhanced magnetic clip (bit stays put when you don’t need it), which hangs from the necklace cord.

Some women don’t like to wear hats when they golf, and find themselves digging in a pocket or fiddling with their gloves to find a ball marker when they need it, so this provides a fashionable and functional solution for them. They come in many different designs and colors (the picture here is only a sampling) so she can get several and always have one that works well with the outfit of the day. The cords are also available in different colors.

Starting at only $21.95, these unique pieces of golf jewelry come in their own pretty little pouches – perfect for a gift! You can also get packages that come with multiple markers & necklaces. And as of now, they offer free standard shipping. How can you beat that?

She’ll look good on and off the course wearing one of these. Sparkly, girly, unique and fabulous? No surprise Christina Kim wears them on the LPGA Tour. I think those words describe her, too.

Red Envelope: Expect Good (Golf) Things

If you’ve never received a gift that came from Red Envelope, you are missing out. And if you’re reading this, you’re probably a golfer, so you’ll want to put golf gifts from Red Envelope on your wish list.

I am delighted to have recently received this gorgeous two-piece monogrammed set of golf gifts. The only way I could be happier with them is if they had my cute little golf chick logo on them. Custom embroidery isn’t an option but I love that they are personalized with my initials. If it isn’t obvious from the photo, they’re a golf shoe bag and a cooler bag. I happen to love the colors which are classy and neutral and both bags are big enough to hold plenty of stuff. The cooler bag is plenty tall to hold long necks, wine bottles (yes, of course I tried!) or a nice cold pitcher of your favorite beverage. The bottles are only sticking out in the photo for effect – I stuffed the bottom. They’re both made out of the same sturdy material with strong zippers, pockets, handles and straps. The cooler bag also has a handy clip so you can secure it to your bag, cart, basket, whatever. The shoe bag has subtle side vents to air out your shoes.

Everyone who sees me with these items wants some of their own. Bonus: I think the monogramming will help prevent theft!

Red Elvelope golf gifts

I’ve received gifts from RedEnvelope before and they’ve always been first class. This time was no exception. They have a lot of new golf items in their collection so if you haven’t seen them lately, take a peek at their website. Not that there’s a shortage of gift ideas for golfers, but many of these are unique and have available personalization to give the golfer(s) in your life -including you – something truly special.

Whenever I see a package or box from RedEnvelope, I know it’s gonna be good. I know I must be sounding like their marketing mouth but this is simply an honest assessment. If I was on their marketing team, I would make the headline of this blog post their slogan (after assuring it’s not already trademarked by someone else): “Red Envelope: Expect Good Things.”
