If you are stuck for ideas for a suitable gift for Father’s Day, then why not bring your dad or granddad along to the British Golf Museum. The Museum is running a special offer, for one day only, on Sunday, 16th June, Father’s Day. Simply bring your dad or your granddad along with you to the Museum, and we’ll spoil him to free admission. For every full paying child admission, we will treat your dad or granddad to a special day out.

The Museum has many fascinating displays to appeal to all interests.
Newly opened this year is the 18th Hole. This hands-on gallery explores golfing equipment. The central focus is a mini putting green which allows visitors to putt using replica feathery, gutty or rubber-core balls and, for example, a Philp putter, a Sunday stick or Bobby Jones’ Calamity Jane putter.

Alternatively, the new temporary exhibition, A Royal Game: Golf from 1952 to 2002 may appeal. Celebrating the Golden Jubilee year, this exhibition explores golfing events through photographs from the last 50 years. Images rarely seen before, such as Fidel Castro playing golf in Cuba can be seen alongside more well known images such as Arnold Palmer on the Swilcan Bridge at the 1995 Open Championship.

If your dad or granddad likes golf, he will love a visit to the British Golf Museum.
