Callaway $1,000,000 Fanbeat Challenge

[bumpandrun 32]

If you are retired or work 3rd shift and can start watching golf at 4:30 ET on Thurs and Fri you might want to join the Callaway Fanbeat Challenge...LOL  You can still earn smaller prizes if you don't watch from the beginning but your chances of winning the big prize are probably pretty slim since you have to answer every question correctly and they are timed.

Anyone been playing this? I've been participating as much as I can, but haven't gotten lucky enough to win yet.

[GolfJunkie302 2,232]

Yep, but I just don't have the time really. I only answer about 15% of the questions. But, I do get most of those right. Haven't won anything yet .

This showed up in my inbox, and I've been playing along as well.  Fun at times; annoying when you're away from the phone and you miss a question that you actually knew the answer to, however.

Ended up with 5030 pts today, which didn't seem bad when all I had to go by was the leaderboard on PGATour.com

Played today, got about 1/2 of them correct... 3761 points, which was good for nothing.

I'm really only hoping to win the “instant” drawing. Realize I have little to no chance to win on points, unless I guess the right answer by accident a couple times.

Ha! I missed like the first question coming home from work, but guessed on a couple more, and voila! won a wedge!!

Hard to beat that. Good work!

I liked playing this game, but the double down option must be heavily in play.  I checked 1 day after about 4 questions, i hadn't missed any,  and the leading score was over 1000 pts more than I had

Thought Callaway would send me an email to order a wedge, as that was what I had supposedly won. Instead, I got an email with a redemption code for $150 on Callaway.com! So, now deciding what to spend my money on. I bet it will add up to more than $150.

Haha I would almost prefer the wedge. That gift card would hurt my wallet

So... I finally decided to pull the trigger with this gift card. Callaway has just introduced Mack Daddy 4 RAW wedges, right? Too cool! Let's build one at Callaway.com. KBS shafts are available, but anything beyond Tour V125 is a $15-$30 upcharge. Same with Nippon ($35) or ProjectX ($25-35). Many grip options available. Most are included, but also a lot you may want are an additional $6. Really?!? They're going to put a grip on the thing that I can buy online for $7, and they're going to charge me $6 on a new club? Sorry for the rant (should be in the RANT thread) but I think it's robbery.

Needless to say, didn't order a wedge...

Ouch, that's a shade on the disappointing side.  $150 in Chrome Softs wouldn't be a bad consolation.

Ouch, yeah that is no bueno. Would have been a lot cooler if they would have just gave you a voucher and let you customize your own wedge and then get that for free.

 

What are you going to do with it now?

I just bought a bunch of stuff I'll need for the summer anyways. New gloves, umbrella, and a cool retro headcover that was on clearance. I'll have a BIG box of new toys to open!!
