Here comes the new year, and if you’re still looking for a few post-holiday deals on gadgets, I’ve got a few more ideas that I’ll post each day until New Year’s Eve!
A Golden Gift: Hit the Tees at Home
One of the biggest video game hits of the past 15 years has been Golden Tee, with the standup projector style gaming units drawing competitive players at bars, restaurants and various other locations around the country. For those who love the game, but would rather stay at home, the Golden Tee 2013 Home Edition is a hole-in-one of a gift.
The standup system is the real thing, not a console-based game with a puny little trackball. It includes a 39-inch high cabinet that connects to an HDTV, plus has every Golden Tee course ever created, along with contests like closest-to-the-pin.
Users can customize their golfers with various clothing and equipment. When the round is over, it can easily slide out of the way.
