Not to confuse things, but you take the words "Brandon" and "Dunes" and replace with "Augusta" and "National" and you're cooking with gas! I would then take door number 2, easy.
Would you rather win...?

The difference being the actual thread is a reality for many of the types of contests and prizes on THP whereas the other is not a prize to be given.
I would take choice #1, Love my current set up but who doesn't like new clubs plus you're still going to a great destination, there really are no bad THP destinations 
Hello, I’m a New Englander also so Brandon sounds like the new guy in my league. Don’t know anything about him.... So if choice 1 is a no name OEM then choice 2 should be a no name premier destination golf course ,resort. I am sure Brandon is nice but there are about 95 more choices in the top 100 courses that are closer than the 4927 miles I would have to travel to get there and back. That said new equipment is always nice, so it would still make me a kid in a candy store.
Dang this is pretty tough......
I love new toys and shiny equipment....
But Bandon is THE trip Ive wanted to go on (inside the US that is) since I started getting into golf......
oiy.....
Gimmie bandon.

Having experienced choice 1 last year, I would have to choose choice 2 now. Two years ago, or even a year ago, I would most likely have gone choice 1.
Option 2 for me - I love links courses

#2. It's just too high on my list (that isn't actually being achieved).

If you read the post BOTH trips were all expenses paid...

Hey... I’ll ban you.
I misread the post at first, I read it as first one paid for you to get there etc but Bandon didn’t. Either way, I stand by my answer on 1. You could get some crap weather at Bandon
#2
I love my current setup and wouldn’t change a thing

Bandon is the best resort in the US, as long as you love golf, don't mind walking, and want to play 36 holes in a day. I love all 3 of those things, so I'll take the Bandon trip. Thanks for the offer! ?
Do those clubs in #1 come with a professional fitting? I hope so. Put me down for #1.
While it's a beautiful course, Bandon Dunes can get foggy and windy.

I would take the first option particularly if it comes with a fitting and interaction with the manufacturer. I will get to Bandon someday but getting behind the scenes with a manufacturer is tougher.
Bandon Dunes. It's all about the golf, back in 2008 I won our Annual Masters Tournament there. We played in April with 15mph winds, rain coming down sideways, and hail on the first green..
We walked 36 holes a day...the best time I've ever had playing golf..my caddie's dad had shaped all the greens and bunkers so I had the Intel to win there..3/4 5 Wood shots instead of wedges which wouldn't hold the greens..creative and fun! I'm a mudder for sure..
