+TourSpecGolfer Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I got some great gear to give away, what type of contest and rules would you like to see? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bk24bk Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Two ideas... 1) give it to the people who have spent the most money with you over the past year or two or three (that won't be me) 2) list what you have and then solicit responses for why someone needs that club. Why that particular club is the missing link between where their game is now and where they want to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck4golf Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Contest - 1) Favorite club and why (not just why JDM, but your fav current club in your bag now so that people review clubs, increase community knowledge) 2) Why you are into quality golf equipment - eg, plenty of people with money don't buy JDM. But we do. Why? A look into what makes this love tick? 3) How you would rationalize free golf clubs into an excuse to buy more JDM golf clubs?

Perhaps you could link #2 to a WITB post (that thing has been a bit dead lately) , because that forum can be very informative, particularly when you see bags played by people who have similar games and specs to you.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted August 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Do you guys really have the time or desire to take pics of your bags and post them? Forum members are a rare breed especially for high end gear as it's made up of professionals who are often well off and very busy. Cleaning your clubs, taking photos, uploading them online seems like a lot to ask...? input appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too much too ask at all, as I'd guess that the majority on here keep their clubs in pristine condition. I'm just waiting for some Tourstage irons to get through customs before posting an up to date witb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staxxx Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) I'm up for a WITB, accompanied by three to eight lines of verse (n some form of Waka, perhaps bowdlerized Haiku) as a homage in praise of your clubs! :)) Edited August 27, 2016 by Staxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supo Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Most top end JDM bags , if not all , are painfully well looked after so it wud be a simple case of snap a shot at the course or range.... that cant take more than 2 seconds to do. the camera on phones are unreal now and in normal sun they wil come out very well. so that's easy and a damn good idea. ALSO how about making it available to contributors on the forum site ONLY rather than blow in "opportunistic" bottom feeders THAT use this place to source ideas and gear then go and use everyone knowledge and money and buy it elsewhere to save 12 cents. that way the guys that support you. get supported back!!!

+TourSpecGolfer Posted August 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 I think 2 contests are in order. Just throwing out some thoughts. 1. Best WITB contest - JDM bags only ( at least irons and driver are JDM ) for posters with 100 posts or more. Two judging ways to win: (2 Prizes) 1. Best photos 2. Best bag & Description 2. As bk24bk mentioned - I list a great prize and solicit responses for why someone needs that club. Why that particular club is the missing link between where their game is now and where they want to be ( 2 prizes as well ) ** Must have at least 100 forum posts ** Any tweaks to these or particular rules?

Best WITB photos might include pics of home course/ favourite hole. Don't mind seeing a link between gear used and type of course/ turf/ greens played on.
