2025 PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway

My annual PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway kicks off tomorrow, Wednesday December 10th.  And somehow?  Kringle just keeps getting BIGGER!

Each year 12 Days is wilder and more fun than even the year before.  And this year?  More Gifts.  More Prizes.  AND more winners than ever before baby!  And the prizes this year are INSANE.  That's a Kringle Promise.  Hold on to your hats, strap in your chairs.  And get ready for another 288+ straight hours of KingleMania!

All the prizes are things you've heard me talk about and review all year long.  That's always a theme of my 12 Days... product, gear, swag that stood out for me as tops for 2025 (and even into 2026).

And this year we have gear and equipment from Adidas, Aerotech, Bridgestone, Bushnell, Callaway Apparel, Callaway Golf, Club Champion, Cobra, Duca del Cosma, Evnroll, FlightScope, FootJoy, Fujikura, Golf Galaxy, Graphite Design, Iliac Golf, LA Golf, Nikon, Odyssey, Original Penguin, PRG Golf, PXG, Shot Scope, Srixon, Stitch Golf, SWAG, Tour Edge, Travis Mathew, Turtleson, Vessel, Wilson Staff, and More!

My 12 Days of Christmas is always an insane, non-stop, adrenaline rush for me.  I'm as big a Christmas dork as you'll ever know.  And being able wrap up the year like this with all of you... it's more than a Christmas giveaway, it's really a chaotic 12 day long Christmas party that takes on a life of its own.

You are always the reason I do what I do with all things golf, and why I always give my absolute best with it all.  The equipment reviews, the course reviews, the big Tour event coverage, the giveaways, the conversations and interactions every single day throughout the year.  You're the driving force for me.  I hope that comes through unequivocally.

So to quickly recap the year like we always do before starting my 12 Days, it all kicked off in January with new equipment reviews, and they flowed fast and furious.  The entire year really was a whirlwind.  Or maybe better said, and you know what I'm going to say... All Gas and No Brakes!

The golf course is basically my second office, maybe even my main office really.  And we reviewed more gear in 2025 than any year before.  And again the common theme was you.  We talked gear and equipment in direct messages, we talked on X/Twitter and Instagram posts, in emails all the time and all hours of the day.  And the more we did the more I felt compelled to go even stronger.

The Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort hosted Play With Pete Invitational for the first time and we held it right before the Tour came in for the Valspar Championship.  The players were literally the last group on the course before it closed for the Championship and it exceeded all expectations.  All players received custom fit new Callaway Elyte Drivers, new Chrome Tour balls (with those PGAPappas logos you all loved), shoes from Duca del Cosma, and for the first time ever... PGAPappas logo apparel from Galvin Green.  It was a wildly fun day for everyone playing and all of you following along.

I've already told you on social we have four Play With Pete Invitationals lined up for 2026.  And honestly even more courses are ready to host as well.  We're probably set for PWPI for the next five years.  Courses and sponsors interest keeps growing and growing.  And of course that's because of the main stars of Play With Pete Invitational, you.

I covered some absolutely great events this year and interviewed players at the U.S. Open and The Open Championship.  We even got a few more podcasts out there this year.  I know you guys want more of these and for them to even be regular segments and I'll work on that for 2026!

And like that the year sped by and it's time again for my 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway.  Like it has been every year, this giveaway is open to everyone worldwide.  Beginning Wednesday December 10th, each day we'll have new giveaways (yes, that's plural).  And like every year it will run for 12 straight days.

There will be giveaways at 12:45 in the afternoon, 4:45 in the late afternoon, and 7:45 in the evening each day (some days will start a little later as you know I read and reply to all your comments here, on X/Twitter, and on Instagram and there are always thousands and thousands).

Some days we'll even have FOUR or maybe FIVE new giveaways, and they can drop at any time.  You might already know some of these like the #JingleBAMBigger, #KringleGonnaKringle, and #SantaSaidDoIt giveaways.  And this year we have a new giveaway, #RunItBackKringle!

Run It Back Kringle giveaways will be related to things you've seen early in the 12 Days.  And we're going to run them back for more.  It might be the same things, similar things, or a greater number of things.  And it is all going to be up to you.  Companies have given me the discretion to AMP UP Kringle this year.  So if a giveaway looks particularly popular, if some of your comments are particularly festive or entertaining, well... Kringle's gonna Run It Back baby!  I foresee doing this at least once during the 12 Days, but you might make this happen a lot more than that!  

Letters from Santa gifts return throughout these 12 Days and will be more fun than ever.  Santa's been watching all the 12 Days prep and he's never been more excited.

With so much going on in this 12 Days I will announce winners at the same time when the 12 Days are finished, like a big unwrapping of all the winners (the same way we did it the last few years).  And you can enter all the giveaways anytime during the 12 Days.

So the draw and announcement of winners will be on New Years Eve.  All the days winners will be posted on X/Twitter, Instagram, and here on my blog.  And it will literally take all day around the clock to announce all winners this year.

You can enter my 12 Days of Christmas giveaway as always three unique and different ways, and at least one winner will come from each of these entries to spread around the holiday cheer.

On X/Twitter, when you see my Giveaway, Letters from Santa, Jingle BAM, Jingle BAM Bigger, Run It Back Kringle, or Kringle Gonna Kringle post, be sure you're following me and the company who made the gear/equipment I'm giving away, and just retweet the announcement.

On Instagram, when you see my Giveaway, Letters from Santa, Jingle BAM, Jingle BAM Bigger, Run It Back Kringle, or Kringle Gonna Kringle post, be sure you're following me and the company who made the gear/equipment I'm giving away, and then Repost or Mention in Your Story, and like the post.

And finally here on my blog, you can enter by leaving a comment in the particular days Giveaway, Letters from Santa, Jingle BAM, Jingle BAM Bigger, Run It Back Kringle, and Kringle Gonna Kringle articles and you're good to go.  You'll get some details and specifics about what made them and what makes them the best around in my opinion... and Santa's.

I'm not going to reveal specifics on the gifts you'll win just yet (you'll have to wait for the actual day to see what that days gifts are).  But you know the companies I already mentioned, and will tell you we'll have drivers, iron sets, putters, balls, shoes, clothes, shafts, bags, accessories, and pretty much everything any golfer is going to ever need.  And what you see in that video just below?  There's even more but couldn't fit everything under the trees.  Again... Buckle up, #KringlePalooza is coming.

The Kringle engine has been revvin' here for weeks now and I see all of you are already pumped and ready to go as well.  Your comments, gifs, replies, and interactions during 12 Days have always been awesome every year and really makes everything incredibly fun for all.  Absolutely love that and it's what Kringle is all about! 

We officially #ReleaseTheKringle and kick off 12 Days tomorrow afternoon.  I wish each and every one of you a wonderful holiday season, joyous Christmas, and absolute best in the New Year!

Cheers all,

Pete
