Last Minute Christmas Gifts? Golf Course Pictures for All Golf Fans

Has Christmas crept up on you again, leaving you short one or two gifts? If you’ve got golf fans on your list of gift recipients, there’s still time to order custom-framed golf course pictures to hang over the bar or in the office.
Why Choose Golf Art For Your Favorite Golfers?
There are a number of excellent reasons to choose a gift of golf art for your favorite golfing fans. Whether they like to play or just enjoy standing on the sidelines to watch, the subjects of most golf pictures are familiar ones to those who love the game of kings.
Meaning and Sentiment
Aside from the fact that many of the best golf scenes are absolutely stunning landscapes, golf course art also has meaning for those who love the sport. Most golfing fans will recognize a Linda Hartough painting of Augusta #12, the Golden Bell hole at Augusta National, the home of the Masters Tournament, or a photo of the Swilcan Bridge at the Old Course at St. Andrews. There’s a heritage and a history behind those photos and paintings that makes them mean so much more than just a pretty picture.
Value
You can choose from beautiful paintings and signed prints by a golf artist like Linda Hartough, Marci Rule and other famous golf artists. These signed, numbered prints have an intrinsic value and are likely to increase in value over the years. Golf autographs and golf memorabilia also carry their own intrinsic value and are likely to increase in value. Autographed photos of legends of golf like Robert “Bobby” Jones are fairly rare and quite valuable, but golf autographs of such golfers as Arnold Palmer, Phil Mickelson, Jack Nicklaus and Adam Scott, 2013 Masters Champion, are more plentiful and affordable.
Golf Photography
Few golf photographers have acquired the name recognition enjoyed by Joann Dost, whose photographs have graced the pages of GOLF magazine and the walls of the USGA museum and the World Golf Hall of Fame. Her stunning golf landscape photos have redefined the world of golf course art. Another golf photographer of note is Steve Heit, who has photographed golf courses and great moments in golf for more than 25 years. A retrospective of his work would make an imaginative and very special gift for any golf lover.
