Golfweek’s 2022 Holiday Gift Guide: David Dusek’s favorite golf technology this holiday season

This holiday season, Golfweek can help you find the perfect electronic gift for every golfer on your holiday list.

[parone_video_player hide-title=”true” hide-logo=”true” hide-description=”true” autoplay=”true” content-key=”kT1ba3RP” campaign=”kT1ba3RP” defaultlang=”en-US” feed=”20-gift-guides”/]

All you need to play golf is a ball, a set of clubs and a bag, but as any golfer knows, modern accessories can make the game much easier and a lot more fun.

When Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus were winning majors, figuring out how far your ball was from the hole involved finding a marked sprinkler head, counting your steps from it to your ball and then doing some math with a hole location sheet.

Today, we have laser rangefinders that can instantly give you a yardage and GPS systems that can reveal how far you are from hazards, and how far you need to hit the ball to get over them. Instead of having an instructor standing by your side on the range, you can get helpful feedback and information from launch monitors.

Any golfer would be thrilled to get one of these electronic devices this holiday season.

Best golf simulators for 2022

Get better this winter without ever having to step foot on the golf course.

As the weather turns and the sun begins to set earlier each and every day, it’s time to begin making preparations to keep your golf game in prime form.

Although they seem pricey, having an at-home simulator is an investment that can pay for itself.

With the ability to hit the practice range, wedge range and even get a full 18 holes in no matter the temperature, an at-home golf simulator is a great investment for casual and serious golfers alike.

For more home-practice training aids to help keep your form without hitting the range, check out our list of at-home practice equipment from earlier this season.

Chris Gotterup, who transferred to Oklahoma from Rutgers for his final year of college golf, had a standout senior season that saw him rise from No. 136 to No. 1 of the rankings, an impressive 99.26 percent improvement. The New Jersey native won the Haskins Award and was named Golfweek’s Men’s Player of the Year thanks to a pair of victories at the East Lake Cup and Puerto Rico Classic as well as top-five finishes in six events, including a second place showing at the Big 12 Championship and T-5 at the NCAA Championship.

Best golf training aids: Swing speed training

We’ve got the need, the need for speed training aids.

Face it, seeing the professionals bomb their drives every single Sunday has all of us wanting to hit it farther.

While the vast majority of us won’t be hitting 300-yard drives, or even 280-yard drives, everyone has the ability to get longer. Yes, even you.

Managing expectations is a big part of golf. The same goes for gaining speed. It won’t happen overnight, but with a plan, it’s something achievable for all.

Whether it be a lack of speed, poor putting, the dreaded short game yips and shanks or whatever ails your game, Golfweek is looking out for you. We’ve curated some of the best products to get your game headed in the right direction.

College Performers of the Week powered by Rapsodo: Thomas Hutchison, UC Davis

Hutchison finished as the lone player to shoot all three rounds in the 60s at the Big West Championship.

Nobody was better than Thomas Hutchison at the Big West Championship.

The UC Davis senior claimed player of the week honors for his performance at the recent conference championship, where he earned medalist honors by four shots at 13 under and helped lead the Aggies to the team title, as well. Hutchison shot rounds of 67-68-68 to finish as the lone player to shoot all three rounds in the 60s at La Quinta Country Club in La Quinta, California.

“What he brings to our team is that he loves Davis, he loves our guys, he really cares about our guys,” said head coach Cy Williams. “It’s not all about Tom with Tom, it’s about the team and it’s about his friends, he’s very excited that the team’s coming along with him to regionals, for sure.”
