The last Letter from Santa of this year's 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. And Santa knows how to finish strong. Really strong.
We have 12 PAIRS of Adidas ZG21 Golf Shoes for 12 Winners! Absolutely insane! 12 of you will each receive a new pair of Adidas ZG21 golf shoes, you know the shoes. Same ones Collin Morikawa wears and has worn all year as he smashed all kinds of records.
The Christmas party has started for me and the fam here, so will keep this one short. Santa's letter was delivered by Dasher tonight, and looks like he was right to wonder about Buddy. Coincidentally I'm wearing some of what Santa wants to give to you this time around.
We have a TravisMathew and Cuater FULL 7-piece golf apparel OUTFIT that TWO of you are going to win. You'll get a jacket, polo, pants, belt, golf shoes, socks, and cap. ALL of it. Just head over to the TravisMathew/Cuater website, and pick out whatever you want.
This morning Santa reminded me of something I did a few months back that was, well... let's call it confident in the face of almost certain disaster.
I'm talking about the Bridgestone Tour B Cup back in September. I asked Adam from Bridgestone to hit a flop shot over my head to prove how much I trust the new 2022 Tour B golf balls. From 6 feet away. I still have all my teeth, and Santa thought it went so well he wants to give one of you a FULL YEAR supply of 12 DOZEN new Bridgestone Tour B Golf balls. You can choose any model you want, the X, XS, RX, or RXS.
I traveled a lot this year, playing and reviewing some great courses, new courses, and everything in between. But have to be honest. I've never wanted to be somewhere as much as I do right now. And that's at The North Pole.
Santa was absolutely tearing it up something crazy at the Happy Moose Bar & Grille tonight. Really best to let Santa tell you all about it. I can say however it has something to do with the Cobra RADSPEED driver, and one of you will win your very own. You can choose 9.0 or 10.5 degrees, any flex you want, and RH or LH.
Santa is taking over my 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway from here on through Christmas Day. He told me we're having two Letters from Santa giveaways today at 12:45 and 7:45, two more on Christmas Eve at the same times, and then one final Letter from Santa giveaway on Christmas Day about 4:45.
And Santa's not messing around. Up for grabs today is any SIK Golf putter you want. Seriously, ANY PUTTER. Pro, DW, Flo, whatever you want. You probably want to check out SIK Golf's webs site to get a feel for all the different models and heads and options. And I'll certainly help with any questions you might have.
Apparently Santa wants my 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway to get even crazier. And when Santa tells me something, you know I'm gonna listen.
The gift up for grabs in my Letters from Santa Giveaway 7 is a limited edition CRU Golf "Declaration" leather driver headcover. Actually three of them, one each for three of you. Words from the Declaration of Independence are stamped into the headcovers. The red, white, and blue colors are popping. And the leather is luxuriously soft as you'd expect from CRU.
My favorite FootJoy shoes of all time. I really can't give any higher praise. The Premiere Series, every one of them. The Tarlow, the Flint, the Packard. All with exquisite details, hypnotizing beauty, and unrestrained performance. And absolute proof golf shoes really can make your mouth water.
I already reviewed all of these shoes for you this season, but will highlight a few points here again and touch on some differences between them since one of you will win your very own pair of brand new FJ Premiere Series shoes. Choose any style, any color, any size you want. Go crazy.
Santa's talking miniature horses, Matrix Resurrections, and golden pixie dust in his latest letter. Just when you think you know everything about someone, they go and blow your mind.
And speaking of mind-blowing, the gift up for grabs in my Letters from Santa Giveaway 6 is a brand new Vessel Player III golf stand bag. You can choose any of the seven available colors, in a 6-way or 14-way top. Whatever you want. I'll let Santa fill you in on all the details.
Bombination. In a word, that's how to describe the new Mizuno ST-G 220 driver. A damn beast to be honest. And with all-out adjustability (featuring two movable weights and three movable weight tracks) the ST-G 220 will also be wildly effective and incredibly versatile for a wide range of players and skills. Mizuno is making that holy grail of added distance with more forgiveness a legit reality with the ST-G 220.
And one of you will win your very own ST-G 220 driver in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. You can choose whatever stock shaft you want, whatever flex you want. And you can see all the options here.
This one is insanely awesome. Not gonna lie, it's pure magic. And for extra crazy? I don't really know what exactly will be in this gift package from Santa!
The big man in red is a huge fan of Inverness Club and loves that Inverness is an anchor site for my Play With Pete Invitational. And so one of you is going to win an amazing Inverness Club $500 Apparel and Accessories Golf Shop Gift Package! I'll let Santa give you all the details in his latest letter.
Tiger is back. He has a new golf ball. Santa is pumped.
I'll just let Santa explain it all. But the gist is he wants TWO of you to EACH win TWO DOZEN new 2022 Bridgestone Golf Tour B XS "TIGER" stamped Proto Balls.
More and more of us are opting to play hybrids in our bags rather than long irons, and the new Tour Edge Exotics C721 hybrid is one of the best you'll ever hit.
And TWO (2) of you will win your very own C721 hybrid in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. You can choose any loft (2/17 degrees, 3/19 degrees, 4/22 degrees, or 5/24 degrees), shaft, flex, and even custom length and grip size you want. You can see all the options here.
If you think wedge spin is sexy, the new Callaway JAWS MD5 and JAWS Full Toe wedges might just be the Sexiest Wedges Alive. Callaway always designs absolute spin machines, and the MD5 and Full Toe are their finest to date.
We've reviewed the JAWS MD5 and Full Toe earlier in the year, but will hit on few key points here again because one of you is going to win a Full Set of three (3) MD5 and Full Toe Wedges in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. We'll have a 52 degree MD5 gap wedge, 56 degree MD5 sand wedge, and a 60 degree Full Toe lob wedge wedge up for grabs. And yup, RH or LH available for you to choose.
You guys already know that Santa and I are buds. But even the best of friends don't know every detail about the other's life. And gonna be honest, I did not know Santa had a few sets of Aerotech Golf SteelFiber shafts in his irons. And I definitely didn't know he has dreams of turning professional.
SteelFiber shafts have more PGA Tour wins than any graphite iron shaft in history, and I guess you can add Santa's name to the list of players who use them, including World No. 1 Nelly Korda. Now one of you will also win a Full Set (11) of Aerotech SteelFiber Private Reserve graphite shafts in my Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 3 in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway.
It's a crazy weather day here today. High wind advisory with wind gusts up to 60 mph. Thunderstorms all over the area. So figured it's also a perfect day to give away a new FootJoy HydroKnit rain jacket for DAY 3 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. You know, when the weather outside is frightful, HydroKnit is so delighful!
Like we'll do all 12 Days, I'm just going to touch on some key points on what makes HydroKnit such a great jacket since we've already gone into all the details earlier in the year. Check out the jacket here on the Footjoy site to see the colors and sizes you can choose from.
When Santa told me he was interested in the new Srixon ZX drivers it honestly didn't surprise me. The ZX7 I reviewed for you guys this year has been the best Srixon driver I've ever played.
What did surprise me however was Santa's decision between the ZX5 and ZX7. I'll let him explain in his own words. But suffice to say in my Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 2 in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, you'll be able to choose a brand new ZX5 or ZX7 driver, LH or RH, whatever flex you want.
It's won countless major championships. It's the most popular model in their line-up. And more than 80-percent of players on Tour use this brand, and aren't even under contract or endorsed to do so.
Of course I'm talking about Golf Pride grips and their Tour Velvet model. These are grips that are exceptionally comfortable and perform dependably in both dry and wet conditions. And one of you is going to win a Full Set of 13 Tour Velvet Align grips. And we're also going to give one of you a Full Set of 13 Tour Wrap MicroSuede grips in DAY 2 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway.
So you guys already know this year's PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway is going to be bigger and wilder than ever. Last year we had Santa Claus helping me out and recommending gifts to give you. And happy to report the big man in red is back this year.
Santa and I have known each other a long time now, and he absolutely digs the 12 Days. He had a great time following along and giving me suggestions on what to include last year. And this year he's let me know to expect daily "Letters from Santa" to take all the fun up another level. And Nick, I appreciate you being cool with me showing everyone your letters.

I won't go into all the details about Solarthon again here, but since three of you are each getting a brand new pair in DAY 1 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, I thought I'd touch again on some of the key features that make these one of the best walking shoes out there.

The United States Golf Association (USGA) today announced the U.S. Adaptive Open Championship, a new national championship that will showcase the world’s best golfers with disabilities. The inaugural competition will be conducted on Course No. 6 at historic Pinehurst Resort & Country Club on July 18-20, 2022. The 2nd U.S. Adaptive Open will also be held on Pinehurst No. 6, and will be conducted from July 17-19, 2023.
The U.S. Adaptive Open Championship will serve as the association’s 15th national championship, joining such iconic events as the U.S. Open, U.S. Women’s Open, U.S. Amateur and U.S. Women’s Amateur. Champions of this new event will see their names recorded in the annals of golf history alongside many of the game’s storied figures.
Golf’s governing bodies have made available a Model Local Rule (MLR) to further limit the use of Green-Reading Materials.
MLR G-11 enables a committee to limit players to using only the yardage book that it has approved for use in the competition.
The USGA Nominating Committee has released its proposed slate of 2022 Executive Committee members and officers. The Executive Committee will again be led by Stu Francis of Hillsborough, Calif., who will be serving the final year of his three-year term as USGA president, and by Fred Perpall of Dallas, Texas, who has been nominated to serve as president-elect.
In addition, Sinclair Eaddy Jr., of Baltimore, Md., and Kevin Hammer of Boynton Beach, Fla., have each been nominated to serve a three-year term on the USGA Executive Committee, a volunteer group of 15 people that provides strategic and financial oversight as the Association’s policy-making and governance board.
