#PersonalDistance w/ THP & Wilson Golf

I got my entry in as well. I hope to get picked for this outing, but if not, I still plan on heading out to the Highlands to meet and greet those who do. Maybe even play an extra round, if someone wants to.
Good Luck to all!

I looked through their site earlier and seeing the shaft options has me interested in how I'd fit into the driver which weight would be best.

Historically events are closed to anyone not directly apart of an event. I expect the same will hold true for this one.

This appears to me to be the most underestimated event on the THP calendar. Yet, it's the most exclusive event of the season with only nine very lucky THPers getting the chance at something few can experience. I'm all in for this, whatever it takes.

I was checking out the Elgin Highland course website ... I wonder how many over-water tee shot opportunities we'll have with that new driver?! Totally pumped, I hope I get in.

Also ... just putting it out there ... since the event is a Saturday, Daa Bearsh on Sunday? (OR EVEN MNF!) ... because that would be awesome.

...ok, I need to calm down, over-using ellipses. :banana:

Look at you making an already awesome trip even better. For as bummed as I am that this one isn't in the cards for me, I equally hope you get in D.

I can't wait to see what the next contest will be!

Congrats to Brad on being the first. I hope I can join him.

It was such a busy weekend that I am finally catching up with everything. Just was going over the event details again and I am beyond pumped to see what is in store for us at this event.

Just a big thanks to Wilson Golf and THP for putting together what sounds like an incredible event. I am excited to be a part of it and can't wait to see who the other 8 THPers are! I'm ready to get my #PersonalDistance on!

Way to go B-rad! Fall golf in Chicago with THP'rs and Wilson Staff is a huge prize. Not to mention a fitting, a driver, and a Tour. Very cool.

I too am happy that Wilson Staff is opening up the Innovation Center.By the time the event tools around there may be new protos to play with.
I think versus the other rands that open their doors this will be cool because they are the underdog and they do care what you think about the brand.
Already envy those who will be chosen.

So why not enter when each contest comes out? Everybody will have a great shot of getting in and it is going to be one heck of an event.

I don't know about the rest of you ... but I'm ready for another contest to try to get into this event! :banana:

Anybody else get the message on twitter from a Wilson Staff employee about sending info to an email for the FG Tour balls but you had to click on a image, but then it said the profile was Suspended?

golfinFF · Feb 25, 2014

Yes Wilson verified she was an employee of theirs

I haven't gotten a message yet, did you just get it this morning?

I didn't get a message either. I'm sure they are doing it in batches, and will catch up eventually.

I am ready for contest #2!!!!! I really want to get in this one

manlai · Feb 25, 2014

it would be crushing to not get picked seeing as I live in the same city. I may revert to sticking my fingers in my ears and shouting "lalallalalalaalala" the whole weekend.
