My dad is a golf nut and he's in good shape for his age, but he doesn't always have the motivation to go golfing on a cold day. My mother gets a bit sick of him moping around so we decided to treat him to this on a recent shopping trip.

The talking aspect of it is irritating at best, but Dad likes the product and he has enjoyed practicing his strokes with this. It's cheap and cheerful and should go down nicely with grumpy old men.
