Top 5 Promotional Products for the perfect Golf Day

Golf is an awesome corporate opportunity, providing companies a full day to entertain customers, prospects, suppliers and other VIPs and what better way to welcome and remind your guests of the perfect golf day than with providing some awesome Printed Promotional Golf Day Products.

A round of golf typically taking 4 hours allows for informal networking and bonding in an informal environment where many deals and friendships are created while fighting to get a little white ball in 18 different holes in as few shots as possible!

For those looking for a more in-depth guide to setting up & running a golf day then we have a more detailed post which you can find here.

If you have just been tasked with sorting the promotional merchandise for your company’s golf day, or merchandise for your executives to share when playing golf as part of the business' networking activities then we have our Top 5 Promotional Products for the perfect golf day which our team of experts will be happy to help you get exactly right for your company.

Golf balls can be a bit emotive, everyone has their favourite brand, so how do you decide on the right ball as a giveaway. 

Price is always a good indicator, while all golf balls look the same there is a lot of technology that goes into a golf ball, so avoiding the cheapest as a giveaway is a good start.

At the high end, you can be sure that if a golf pro thought a Titleist over a Nike ball was going to mean the difference of winning a Major Tournament, they would choose that brand….in fact on the professional circuit there are many different brands & model of ball used so there is no right/wrong answer.

That said amongst the amateur community, Titleist Pro V1 is probably one of the best known, mostly due to massive marketing but while expensive, you’ll have many happy customers if this is your giveaway on the day! Chances are the golfers amongst your company will give you plenty of advice, but sticking with the Titleist brand and the ball your budget affords and you won’t go too far wrong!

Ask your LSi Promotional Merchandise Expert about the LSi bespoke golf ball packaging options for that extra special touch.

While we can all keep or fingers crossed for a glorious British summer, chances are rain may affect your golf day. Now any golfer should have a Golf Umbrella packed in the golf bag, but if you are wishing to give your clients and VIPs a gift on the day then a really good quality golf umbrella can be a fantastic business gift.

Like golf balls, the promotional golf umbrella is a very good example of “you get what you pay for.”

The priority is to go for a “storm proof frame” which is one that when the wind blows and it blows inside out it won’t break! Really important as a gift because golfers do go out in all weathers!

Golf umbrellas allow all manner of bespoke options, they can be made to order in the UK which means almost any combination of colours can be used for the 8 panels. All 8 in one corporate colour, 2 alternating colours, or a personal favourite 7 panel colours in one colour and just one panel a different colour….it’s just different!

The LSi design team can help you with visuals to see how the panel colours you need to work with can be made to work. If one of the standard 50+ panel colours don’t work, or your Pantone colour is a very specific shade then the option exists to Pantone Match.

Next of course is over-printing. Now some really amazing things can be done with full canopy, full colour prints creating a picture across all 8 panels, but of course this is quite an investment, albeit when done well that umbrella will be the only umbrella used by the recipient for years to come and therefore will deliver a Return on Investment but it is not for everyone.

Printed golf balls and company logo umbrellas are two premium go-to gifts for any golf day.

If budgets don’t stretch to umbrellas, or maybe umbrellas work as prizes but your numbers are too many for every attendee then an Embroidered Golf Towel is a really nice gift option.

Golf Towels are needed by players for cleaning clubs that get wet or muddy depending on conditions and also covered in sand for bunker shots. They come in all sorts of colours to match your brand, and with an embroidered logo will communicate your brand and the golf day for many years to come.

We all know the importance of hydration and certainly on a warm summer’s day, walking and playing golf for 4 hours hydration is an important consideration for health but also performance.

What a fantastic gift to send your golfers out with a thermal promotional water bottle pre-filled with ice cool water. A great gift for the day but one that you know will be used for many days that follow.

Our best selling Colour Works Thermal Water Bottles come in a wide range of colours and are available with prints or engraving, and using LSi’s individual personalisation service can include your guests’ names for that extra special personal touch as well as to stop people walking off with the wrong bottle!

Lastly, product number 5 for your perfect golf day….don’t forget the signage!

From directional signage to your private room at the venue, to welcoming banners and even banners across the golf course if required.

Printed Roller banners are a low cost but very effective way to transform your venue into YOUR venue for the day by making sure your brand is prominent and visible to your guests while helping them find their way around the facilities you have been provided from car park, to the changing rooms, your room and out to the golf course.

Organising a golf day can be a daunting task, especially for anyone unfamiliar with golf and its idiosyncrasies, there are many within the LSi Team that are mad golfers and will be happy to share their knowledge and advice to help you choose and decorate the right promotional products for your golf day.
