Tournament Gifts

[JDP]

What's the best / coolest / most unique tournament gift you have ever received and why!?

[Chuckster]

Playing a tournament in a few weeks and getting a leather glove keeper and a pair of FootJoy premier golf shoes.  Nicest gifts I've ever gotten at a tourney for sure.

[Titleist87]

Dozen TP black balls and choice of a TM putter or hybrid. This was 2008 or so.

My Dad & I played in the Father / Son tournament in Myrtle Beach for about 10 years and they had some really good swag years.  One year shoes and a shoe bag, another year a nice leather duffle bag, always a shirt and hat, dozen balls & $ credit at PGA SS (which we always overspent )  & lots of smaller stuff.  You walked through a big room at the host / registration club and filled your bag at the different hand out stations.  Those were pretty well run tournaments and was a great way to spend a week together.  The winners got some great prizes but we were never in the running for those!  They did have a good steak barbeque dinner the last day too as they handed out the prizes.  I still get promo emails from them.

I was focused on the best single item I've gotten as a tee gift when I mentioned the Callaway Irons/Woods.

But perhaps the best overall swag bag, is each year at the Team Titleist Invitational.   It's a Titleist duffel bag stuffed with  Footjoy pullovers or polos, Titleist hats, at least a dozen Pro V's and several items that aren't available anywhere except these events, like the coveted TT Bag Tags, or Coffee or travel mugs.  Some pretty cool Scotty Cameron divot tools.  It is almost always several hundred dollars in value

This was from the TT Invitational at TPC Sawgrass

I've been to this one outing a few times where you get "points" to go shopping prior to the round.  

Year 1 - 2016 Taylormade M2 Driver, TM M2 FW, TM M2 Rescue, TM Spider Putter

Year 2 - Two 2017 Taylormade M2 Driver, TM M1 Rescue

Year 3 - Titliest TS3 Driver, TS3 3W, Scotty Cameron Phantom X 5.5 putter

[Tom the Golf Nut]

For a give away, other than the usual leather duffle bag, golf shirt, jacket, balls and such. The best thing I got was a Flight Scope MEVO. Valued at $500.00 when they came out was a big deal for me.

I have played in a few nice tournaments that have great swag...usually member/guest tournaments.  I just recently (in the fall) played in one and got a Titleist hybrid golf bag with the course logo on the ball pocket.  Now I think the best gift of all was many years ago I played in a celebrity tournament and I was paired with Johnny Unitas.  At the time, I had a sporting goods store and he signed a ton of memorabilia for me so I could hang it in the store.  So did I get a gift from the tournament...not necessarily, but all the celebs took pictures and signed autographs so I'm going to count that.

Not really a tournament, but one of the last year's I caddied. Once a year they would throw us a caddy day at the club. The caddy master would grill for us on the patio and we'd all go play 18 on a Monday. The course was always open to us on a Monday so that wasn't the cool part.

This year they were clearing out the old stock of demos and merch they couldn't move Being a 20 year old and getting handed a free Titleist driver, a couple hats with the club logo and a few sleeves of balls was pretty awesome.

My uncle does a marine tournament every year (all military welcome) and he always had good grab bags. Just cool military decor. Nothing crazy just was good for me (3/4 sleeve rain jackets. Themed golf balls/tees etc) and always good gifts.

best tournament win though was my 9* titleist TS2 for longest drive. Good win. Also won a Patrice Bergeron/brad Marchand signed picture in a raffle same tournament.

Full set of irons is pretty unreal, v that's a serious tourny budget!

Putter is interesting bc that's so personal, I haven't changed my putter in 20 years almost and I know alotta guys like me - but anytime you're getting a new club is a great gift

Love that because it's a full story, they got you covered from all angles with Truly exclusive stuff. Butt it helps bring the biggest OEM in the game for sure!
