    I'd definitely get 2 presents, I think all Christmas babies hate one present for both!

    What sort of budget are you on? You're well prepared anyway :D

    There must be SOME budget. What's the maximum you can spend?
    Maybe book him an overnight trip to a fancy golf course with a golf buddy.

    If he's mad into golf, maybe a new set of golf clubs or green fees for an exclusive club.

    If he's mad into cars...you could hire a fancy car for a day and let him drive it off to a fancy hotel you booked....look at this website www.heritagesportscars.com

    No budget, nice ....lucky man

    That is the safest option!

    You could always bring him into a golf pro shop and let pick out a new set of golf clubs

    Maybe a voucher for some golf lessons from the golf club - if he's a member. If not a member the nearest club to him.

    He should not look on it as a hint that he needs lessons. Anyone worth their salt will be glad to get lessons to improve their game.

    GAA sell season tickets now for each county and, afaik, for the championship games in Croker. Maybe buy 2 and you can go with him if you're interested or, if not, he can bring a pal.

    Motoring - open an account with, say, €200, in a local filling station and let him use it to fill up until it runs out (in a week or 2!).
