Holiday Golf Gifts: Robotic Golf Balls

Christmas gifts for golfers are easy for the most part; tees, gloves, shirts, something to hold a cigar or put booze in. Golfers make stocking stuffing a simple task, but this year TikTok has left golfers in awe with a video of a robotic golf ball controlled with a smartphone app.

The viral video from GolfCity showcases a product from Sphero, and get this; the ball is in stock for the holiday season on Amazon! With a price tag of $50, this could be a fantastic gag gift for any player level.  Either, I am sure that next spring, there will be a ton of videos on TikTok and Instagram with some pretty insane putts being sunk.

Their Amazon listing also breaks down the details about the ball and different features you can take advantage of.
