JP McManus Pro-Am will finally be held in 2022.
The resort collaborated with TaylorMade to create a limited edition wedge. This unique 60-degree gun metal wedge is decorated with a gorgeous laser-etched image of Adele Estate and the golden JP McManus Pro-Am logo. Milled Grind (MG) wedges draw inspiration from the best golfers in the world and use advanced surface milling technology to ensure precise bottom geometry, leading edges and score lines. The result is precise grinding on each wedge, resulting in optimal turf interaction and consistent performance.
It costs 195 Euros, which is indeed a very special gift. There are several other gifts to choose from in the Pro-Am 2022 series, including headgear, shirt, towel, shoe bag, leather wallet/wallet and so on.
Never forget to visit the local golf club specialty store for gift ideas. Face-to-face conversation means you can get advice on what to buy, and you are also supporting an important "local business".
Seve: Life through his lens
Most of the gift ideas on this list are available in Ireland, but this one is not. However, this is a book about Seve, written by the legendary photographer David Cannon (David Cannon), so Seve fans everywhere want this book.
In collaboration with R&A and the European Tour, this book shows Cannon’s most beautiful photos of one of the world’s greatest and certainly the most gorgeous players. 42.95 euros and 16.95 euros for shipping.
This is the third book in Tom Coyne's "A Course Called..." series. After his adventures in Ireland and Scotland, he returned to his hometown to dig deep into the golf culture of American golf.

Specialty store/driving range coupons
I can't think of how many golfers don't welcome coupons from specialty stores or driving ranges.

It may be for full range, short shots or frustrating, inconsistent, and incredible lack of proper putts. I know which one I need!

Every year, a new invention is produced or an existing product is updated. However, sometimes it is better to stick to the old favorites. This is a mixture of the two.
