i think thats a lie, who would give that away

 

[cjskier]

That's pretty vague...

 

[cmcolomb]

It's not a lie - DGA does this every year... looks like they have thrown in more requirements - must like them on facebook and write an essay.. Might have to get myself a facebook now...

 

[gcr_russell]

Yeah they did this the last two years too. Im definitely getting in on this.

 

[jhgonzo]

I am now $25 poorer. Time to polish my essay-writing skills.

 

[ejvogie]

I bought the disc last year, that was all that was required to enter. This time there's an essay? Eff that, I hated comp.

DGA.

It will take more than nine baskets to build my dream course

 

[jclepa]

Some of you need to read the fine print again... they are giving away 2 9-hole courses (like last year). One will be based on a written essay, but the other will be a straight raffle draw (like last year).

Or you could just not enter at all and give me a better chance...

Stupid DGA. Have to be 18 stinkin' years old.

Blame their lawyers. I'm sure most disc companies would allow all ages to enter these types of contests, but, you know, legal stuff and all...:|

 

[smyith]

dont blame lawyers, blame the **** **** *** *** ******** **** who started suing people over ridiculous things. thats why you have to be 18.

also, dont you have to be present at worlds to win the raffle?

also, dont you have to be present at worlds to win the raffle?

I'll do this if they do my homework.

 

[jhgonzo]

This is better than the "scratch-off ticket" type of giveaway, since apparently they will pick the best entrant...you can't just buy the required entry disc, send in your name, and expect that you have even a remote chance of winning. I love that this contest will reward writing skills, especially creativity, and I'm positive that someone on the DGCR boards can win this based on what I've read on these forums over the last few years!

I thought your essay would be on facebook or some other site and you had to get your friends to vote and the top 5 or 10 or something would then be voted on.

Either way at minimum I will buy a disc or two. I might write an essay too.

 

[NoTwoToFours]

Has anyone entered the contest, or wrote an essay yet that we can vote for?

I plan to for sure! The best part is that the Hurricane just earned itself a spot in my bag, I'm going to need a few backups of that one, I got one in my players pack at bg ams, and it flies beautifully.
