Putting Cups
Don’t let all the putting improvement you made this season disappear. These at-home putting tools will turn any room into a private green, and these products are ultra-portable, so they don’t have to compete with the Christmas tree for floor space. For a luxe putting experience, the Seamus Hand Forged Putting Cup is made from a forged mild steel and is designed to replicate the sound of your ball dropping to the bottom of the cup. If your budget's lower, the $12 SKLZ Putt Pocket Accuracy Trainer is a solid gift option that can be used at home or fitted over a standard golf hole to help you train to make putts on the high side.
SKLZ Putt Pocket Putting Accuracy Trainer
Sinking breaking putts is all about visualizing the right line. The Putt Pocket's unique horseshoe shape forces players to hit to the high side of the hole, it and also can be used as an extra practice cup. The product helps players improve the accuracy of their line and speed on putts of all lengths. It fits in a standard golf hole, and has a 2.75 inch opening that forces the player to make putts in the high side. The small hole opening makes real holes appear larger once the player is out on the course. It's perfect target for practicing at home or office. You can use it as a practice hole (on the turf) on a crowded practice green.

Available in a variety of colors, these cozy kicks have a textured sole that provides enough traction to handle wet or icy conditions.
