PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas JingleBAM DAY 6 Golf Giveaway: Vessel Golf VLS Stand Bag Review

What can I tell you about Vessel Golf bags that I haven't already told you?  They're sophisticated, and luxurious.  They're a pure delight to carry, brimming with nostalgia that takes you back to a time when golf in its purest form was enjoying the walk.

I've carried and reviewed the Vessel Player II and Player III bags.  The VLS, VLX, VLX Lux, and Lux cart bags as well.  What they all have in common is a meticulous character of elaborate detail and uncommonly superb workmanship.  And in my DAY 6 JingleBAM giveaway one of you is going to wind up with your very own Vessel Golf VLS Stand Bag (Grey) where old school design meets modern enrichment.

FootJoy ThermoSeries Layering Apparel Review: 2022 PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway DAY 6

If you can't escape the winter chill, FootJoy wants you to at least be able to neutralize it.  So say hello to the new 2022 FootJoy ThermoSeries apparel layering system.  Well actually, say hello to it again.  I already reviewed every piece in this cold weather line for you earlier this year.  And now one of you is going to win your own ThermoSeries 3-piece outfit.

PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas JingleBAM DAY 5 Golf Giveaway: Motocaddy M7 Remote Electric Caddy Review

The Motocaddy M7 Remote Electric Caddy was one of the most fun things I reviewed all year.  I showed you how to use it - short answer: simple.  What it does - short answer: just about everything.  And how it performs uphill and downhill - short answer: chef's kiss.

And now in my JingleBAM Day 5 one of you is going to win your very own Motocaddy M7 along with an accessories package that includes a drink holder, an umbrella holder, a device cradle and more!  This baby truly does everything and does everything well.  I absolutely love my M7 Remote Electric Caddy.

Evnroll V-Series Putter Review: 2022 PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway DAY 5

I've tested and played three different Evnroll V-Series milled putters over the past year.  And with each putter my immediate impressions were exactly the same.  I can see V-Series as the kind of putters someone uses just one time and then doesn't even consider trying anything else afterwards.  They're really that good.

The ER2v wide flange mallet, ER5v winged mallet, and ER11vx full-size mallet are all extremely forgiving across the entire face, deliver a deliciously soft click at impact, and are responsive with consistency of results even when your putts are not perfect.  And one of you will be able to choose any of the six different putters in the V-Series line.  You can choose any putter, any length, and any of six different hosels (more on this in a bit) and see all the putters here.

PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas JingleBAM DAY 4 Golf Giveaway: Fujikura Ventus TR Shaft Review

Fujikura Golf had one hell of a year.  Their shafts were used by 23 PGA Tour champions including Major Championships, international titles, and the Tour Championship.  And Fujikura's new line of Ventus TR shafts were in both the drivers and woods for the top three players in the world.

I was fit multiple times this year for many different drivers this year, and the Fujikura Ventus TR Blue seemed to always be the shaft that was one of the best for me.  I have it in a handful of drivers and woods.  And for JingleBAM DAY 4 one of you will win any Ventus TR shaft you want.  Choose from Blue, Red, or Black, any weight, any flex.  I'll even see what I can do to get it cut and gripped at the length you want with whatever driver you want to use it in.  You can read about the Ventus TR Blue, Red, and Black specs and technology here.

Edel Golf SMS Forged Wedge Review: 2022 PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway DAY 4

From players on professional Tours to weekend warriors the short game is your most important tool.  And Edel Golf has designed a groundbreaking wedge with removable weight technology that will help anyone hit the ball closer to those hard to reach pins and spin the ball like it was attached to a yoyo.

Edel's new SMS wedges allow you to move around three different weights that ultimately fit the wedge to your unique swing and game.  And one of you will win a custom set of three (3) Edel SMS wedges.  You can choose any loft (between 48 and 60 degrees), any of four fantastic grinds, and any flex.  I'll help the winner figure out what combination might be best for their game.

PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas JingleBAM DAY 3 Golf Giveaway: Bridgestone Golf 12 Dozen (Year Supply) of Tour B Golf Balls

Don't know if you heard but some dude named Tiger is playing tonight?  Grin... yeah it's an exhibition match, but tonight's Capital One The Match pitting Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy against Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas has all the feels of something that could put exhibition golf back on the map.

Tiger recently switched from the Bridgestone Golf Tour B XS to the Tour B X, and I believe tonight is the first time he'll be using it competitively.  And so it seems a perfect day to have my JingleBAM DAY 3 giveaway.  A full year's supply, 12 dozen 2022 Bridgestone Golf Tour B balls.  The winner can choose from any of the Tour B X, Tour B XS, Tour B RX, or Tour B RXS.

Full Set (4-PW) of Cobra Golf 2023 T-Rail Irons or 2022 LTDx Irons: PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway DAY 3

I asked you about a month ago if you'd like to see a full set of Cobra Golf 2022 LTDx irons or Cobra Golf 2023 T-Rail irons in my 12 Days of Christmas this year.  Both models were strong performers for me and two of the easiest to hit Cobra irons I've ever played.

And the results were split.  About half of you wanted to see the new T-Rail, and the other half wanted to see LTDx.  So I'm letting you decide for DAY 3!  The winner can choose whichever set they want, T-Rail or LTDx, any flex, RH or LH.  Sets include 7 irons, and the T-Rail have a dedicated 4H hybrid as well.

Callaway Rogue ST MAX Driver Review: 2022 PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway DAY 2

Ask some golfers and they'll tell you they'd rather be longer off the tee even if it means being less accurate.  Others will say being in the fairway with driver makes the game easier and they're willing to sacrifice some distance to keep drives in play.

To all these players Callaway says with their new Rogue ST MAX driver you can have the whole pie, distance and accuracy.  And one of you is going to win a new Rogue ST MAX driver of your own.  Choose either 9 or 10.5 degree loft, regular, stiff, or extra stiff flex, and RH or LH.

Garsen Putter Grips Captures 60th Tour Win

Zack shot a final round 68 to finish at 18 under securing a 1 shot victory while using his custom Garsen Quad Tour putter grip. The champion now claims a spot in next year’s Open Championship. Adding to the recent PGA Tour Houston Open and LPGA Tour Championship victories, this now totals 60 tour wins for Garsen.

With a spine down the center of the grip, the Max is Garsen’s most non-traditional grip. This design makes the front of the grip sit at two 45 degree angles to the target line instead of a flat parallel surface.
