Golf is a game in which you hit a small ball into a small hole, fail, and then spend the rest of the afternoon explaining why. It is also, conveniently, the most accessorized sport on earth.
So for the golfer in your life, here is everything they do not need to play better. None of it will lower their handicap. All of it will raise their standing at the club.
