The straightest and most stable shaft I played all year was the Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Orange. In fact, it quickly became my favorite Tensi shaft of the many I've played over the years.
Consistent and tight dispersion without much deviation in distance and direction even on mishits. Tensei AV Raw Orange is pretty much the driver whisperer on all kinds of mediocre shots. It's really that good.
Santa came strong with this Letters from Santa giveaway in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. One of you will receive a COMPLETE OUTFIT that includes a Travis Mathew jacket, polo, pants, hat, AND Cuater golf shoes, socks, and belt year.
Yup. Seven total pieces. And you get to pick whatever Travis Mathew jacket, shirt, pants, hat, and Cuater golf shoes, belt, and socks that 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 also the new PRO ONLY Cord putter grip in DAY 4 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway.
FootJoy clearly never rests until their better is best, and refined changes to the Pro SL line of shoes in 2020 resulted in two different models that delivered big on performance and comfort.
I've reviewed the Pro SL and Pro SL Carbon for you guys here and on twitter and Instagram this year. And like we've been doing for all these 12 Days, I'm going to hit on some review highlights to help you choose between the two. You'll be able to choose either shoe in whatever color you want (that's in stock).
I told you guys this year's PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway was going to be wilder than ever. And here's one of the big reasons why. The Man in Red himself, Santa Claus is helping me out and recommending gifts to give you this year.
Santa and I have known each other a long time now, and he really digs the 12 Days. This crazy idea all started last year when I was hanging out with SC at his house on Pebble Beach. After my round there he asked me, "Pete, what do you think about making your 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway even bigger?" He's Santa, so of course I listened.
In 2020 Mizuno introduced their new M-Craft putters to their line-up of golf clubs, and to say Mizuno nailed it with M Craft would be a ridiculous understatement. They are some of the best putters you'll find anywhere on the market, and even some of the best clubs in any club category.
I've reviewed a few M-Craft putters for you guys here and on twitter and Instagram this year. And the M Craft III (mid-mallet) in White Satin finish is up for grabs in DAY 2 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. Like we'll do for all these 12 Days I'm going to hit on some review highlights, but suffice to say M-Craft is as trustworthy as it is lustworthy.
Pro V1 and Pro V1x are the sexy names in Titleist's ball line-up, but the AVX is every bit as much a ball without compromise designed to lower your scores.
I've reviewed all three balls for you guys here and on twitter and Instagram this year, but since one of you is getting two dozen of these in DAY 1 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, I thought I'd help you choose by hitting some of the key differences among them.
I have to be honest with you guys. As much as you love my annual PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, I think I might love it even more. Getting everything ready for you and planning it all so it's wildly fun and exciting for everyone puts me on a 12 day adrenaline rush that pretty much leaves me running on fumes by end of year.
Everything we're giving away this year you've heard me talk about and review as tops for 2020 (and even into 2021), and includes gear and equipment from Adidas, Aldila, Bridgestone, Callaway, Cleveland, Cobra, CRU, Cuater, Duca del Cosma, FootJoy, Galvin Green, Golf Pride, Mitsubishi, Mizuno, Titleist, Tour Edge, Travis Mathew, Wilson, and more.

Golfers have come to love the Cleveland CBX 2 wedge for its combination of spin, control and forgiveness. There’s even more to love with the addition of the stylish, all-new Black Satin finish. The Cleveland CBX 2 Black Satin officially launches in North America on December 18, 2020.
The Cleveland CBX 2 changed the golf industry’s approach to wedge design. For far too long, wedges have been designed for the world’s best players at the expense of the everyday golfers who define the sport. That’s why the Cleveland CBX 2 is a forgiving, cavity back wedge built with the everyday player in mind. It features tour wedge technologies that you would expect from Cleveland Golf, but it is loaded with forgiveness so everyone can take advantage of those developments in design. With the addition of the Black Satin finish, players can upgrade their style points on the course as well.
SRIXON®, a global leader in golf equipment innovation, announces the launch of the all-new ZX Woods, tour-validated woods suited for the needs of golf’s best players. Srixon’s ZX Woods officially launch in North America on January 15, 2021.
