I love Jennifer Mario, and would love to have her pick out holiday gifts for me. I feel the need to suplement her list, though, with one of my own. I call it, warmly, holiday shopping for golfers on the edge. Traditionalist that I am, I will ennumerate with Roman characters.

I. New Golf Bag–Ogio. Dudes make skate and snow board stuff, as well as BMX and Motocross gear. Enough said. Check out the Grom bag, the lime green one.

II. Wedges–Bad Ass Golf. Beside their hard-hitting name is a tricked-out website that borders on the risque. All right, it is risque, especially the girl on the hog. When it comes to scoring clubs, you might try some BadAss wedges.

III. Shoes–Bite Shoes. Sandal golf shoes, hiker golf shoes, sneaker golf shoes, bowling golf shoes. You name it, they make it, with panache and style.

IV. Clothing-Copley Apparel. I like these guys as much as j.lindeberg. David Branshaw, the guy who won the Nationwide Tour Championship this year, wears Copley. Thought he looked good in it at Rochester, before I knew what he was wearing.

V. Hats–VillageHatShop–All right, I wholesaled this one. It’s hard to find hat makers. As we know, the best golf hats are always borrowed from other sports, or are flat-out goofy ones.
