Member Equipment Review Awards sponsored by RockBottomGolf

 

* First make sure to register to become a MGS forum member: CLICK HERE

 

One of the key parts of what gets us forum members excited are equipment reviews. It's actually one of reasons a lot of us originally found this place – it certainly was for me. New equipment, gems from last season, absolute clunkers, whatever it is – we are better off for having solid, honest reviews. We want to know what works well for you and what doesn't. We want to recognize solid proactive member equipment reviews, and encourage you guys to write more of them. 

 

Consumer equipment reviews are also a big part of the shopping experience at RockBottomGolf.com so when we approached Scratch the Caveman and his crew at RockBottomGolf they were stoked to be able to partner with us in recognizing your efforts! We will be awarding a $75 RockBottomGolf voucher code for the best forum member equipment review each month!

 

What we want to see is solid, honest member reviews. You guys already do a good job, but we put together a few tips – things that really make equipment reviews pop. You can find the thread HERE or pinned to the top of the Member Review section in the forums.

 

So how does this work you ask… well, it's pretty simple really:

We will be kicking this off immediately, so any reviews posted in April will be considered for the first monthly award!

 

Thanks again to Scratch and the RockBottomGolf crew for their support in making this possible.

hi guys, just a plug to get cracking on member reviews if you want to be considered for the monthly review prize - $75 voucher courtesy of our good friend Scratch! We will be selecting a winner at the end of the month so you only have a few more days to get in there!

hahaha - short answer is no. Longer answer is that we want to encourage proactive member content and this is one way we hope to do that - its also a really good way to stand out from the crowd for further member testing opportunities so jump on it!

And NOT "feed my inner Ho?" - lol

 

Too late for this month, and the weather is too nice right now.  This would have to be a rainy day project, but I can do that! ;)
