Gift ideas needed!
 
My dad is turning 70 on Friday. I am usually one of the best gift givers around, regardless of whether is cheap or expensive. For some reason I'm drawing a total blank, and I'm running out of time!

Chiefs fan, post office retiree, and plays golf.

No, I'm not getting him a Chiefs putter cover or golf towel or something. He already has that stuff, and I'm thinking something better with it being his 70th birthday.

Any gift ideas in the $100-200 range? Is there a super nice golf course somewhere that I could buy him a round to play with some of his buddies?

I broke down and asked him what he wanted, and he said, "To be 60 again." Since I can't do that, I've got to think of something.

Hooker

Get him a nice Benchmade or Spyderco pocket knife and have the Arrowhead logo laser engraved on the blade.

There are a bunch of nice courses in the Branson area. Some may exceed your budget.

Payne’s Valley
Ozark National
Buffalo Ridge
Top of the Rock (Par 3 course)

Looked at Top of the Rock, and it's $150 for 4 players. It's definitely being considered. :)

$100-200. You guys must have a low standard for hookers, especially if you are suggesting bourbon, too.

lawrenceRaider 10-19-2021 12:38 PM

Take him to a range that has full auto weapons. He'll feel even younger than 60 again.

You still in Springfield?

I was going to suggest a round of golf somewhere, but you already had it on your list.

Since you mentioned Top of the Rock..... me & a bunch of guys are headed to Big Cedar next year for a golf trip. There are 5 course there ranging in price, but from what I've been told, are all worth the cost to play.

Payne's Valley - $325 per person; 19 hole course
Ozark National - $250 per person; 18 hole course
Buffalo Ridge - $175 per person; 18 hole course
Top of The Rock - $150 per person; 9 hole course
Mountain Top - $95 per person; 13 hole short course

Candlesticks always make a nice gift.

Had no clue you knew a current rate for a hooker :hmmm:

FlaChief58 10-19-2021 12:58 PM

They make a very nice Chiefs golf bag with a built in cooler that has been on my wish list for a couple years. Other than that, I'd go with hookers and blow

Buy him $100 worth of lottery tickets. Then if he wins he will buy you a house and car.

Abba-Dabba 10-19-2021 01:10 PM

nothing better than a bit of money in the pocket

in a gift bag with an edible

that way you can feel like you are giving a gift.

it might make him at least feel 60 for a few hours.

Payne's Valley - $325 per person; 19 hole courseThis is Tiger's course. There is no real club house. My buddies tell me not worth the price tag. I haven't been on it yet
Ozark National - $250 per person; 18 hole courseNice Course, not worth the price tag
Buffalo Ridge - $175 per person; 18 hole courseLong Course, out of Bass Pro stable of courses, this is my favorite
Top of The Rock - $150 per person; 9 hole courseAwesome Par 3 course.
Views are incredible

Mountain Top - $95 per person; 13 hole short courseNice concept of only 13 holes. Par 3 walking course only

If you want to do Bass Pro property, this is another unique way to have some fun.

Thanks for the info on the courses as well.

Payne's Valley and Ozark National are wonderful. Buffalo Ridge is a also great just not to the level of PV or ON. Mountain Top is fun. Top of the Rock is overrated IMO. Great Driving range and first 5 holes are good with a lake view on a couple of hole, but still it is a nine hole par 3 . IMO would rather play Buffalo Ridge twice then Top of the Rock for about the same amount of $$$.

Should be a great golf trip. Side course that is fun that doesn't get the publicity that those others get is Branson Hills. Fun course (https://www.bransonhillsgolfclub.com/)

Less is More
 
I learned from my parents that material things and "Stuff" is less important as you get older. They really enjoyed when the whole family was together. I don't know if you have other siblings, but if not a special meal and spending an afternoon together is worth $$$$ more than some item.

My parents lived in a 100 year of house, drove old vehicles and passed away with several hundred thousand in the bank. It's people not shinny items that make people feel fulfilled. My parents were happier than most people I know with a million dollars.

Pretty much the way it works with my parents. If they want or need something, they go get it.

How about taking him out for a high end dinner???

Fish 10-19-2021 08:52 PM

Technically, if you took him to the center of the milky way galaxy near enough to the massive gravity of the black hole located there, you could position him at a distance that would take 10yrs off his life compared to everyone else back on Earth. He could return and be 10yrs younger than everyone else. But you have a ~$200 limit, so....

X-Factor was never on his like/dislike-meter until he stopped at our tailgate and handed two children at our tailgate trading cards....of himself. Needless to say, he's not a fan...lol.

Yeah. I think this is my problem. He's no millionaire, but he's definitely not hurting. If he wants/needs something, he usually just goes and gets it.

I may message his siblings and see if they might want to get together this weekend. Maybe for dinner after the Chiefs game Sunday.

listopencil 10-20-2021 09:11 AM

Print up and mail to him a fake coupon/certificate good for a round of golf with a Chief player that's only good on his birthday, and then when it arrives too late to redeem it just blame the Post Office.
