Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 10 (PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway): Full Year of 12 DOZEN New 2022 Bridgestone Golf Tour B Golf Balls

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.

Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 9 (PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway): Cobra Golf RADSPEED Driver

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.

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.

Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 2 (PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway): Srixon ZX5 or ZX7 Driver

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.
