Royal and Awesome Contest Winners Announcement!

We had some fun photo entries over on The Golf Chick Facebook page for the Royal and Awesome golf attire contest! Thanks to all who played and voted! I also appreciate the likes, votes, emails and tweets about who should win. They may have influenced my decision, but ultimately, I just picked who I picked. I may have mentioned this was going to be an arbitrary, not mathematical, contest! :)

So, without further ado… here are the winners:

John Snider …… wins a pair of trousers! (Multiple entries that were all fun but my favorite was the cart in the muck! Don’t drink and drive, kids, don’t even putt.)

Steve Antilla ….. wins a pair of shorts! (Within inches of an ace. If we all had shorts for every one of those…!)

Fiona Payne ….. wins a cap! (Amazing 40′ putt, but to snap a photo and see the track on the green? Royally awesome!)

Congratulations to all! Email me at kristen (at) thegolfchick (dot) com and I we can sort out the fulfillment details. I hope when you receive them you’ll post pics back on the FB page or send them to me so I can share them. Thanks again for playing, and enjoy your new duds!

Contest Time – Who Wants Some Royal and Awesome Golf Attire?

Want some free golf apparel? I have some to give away to a few readers!

The London 2012 Olympics looked like a roaring success. If you follow me on the twitters, you probably know that the electricity I saw in the street interviews and the interaction from the international community on social media was lost in translation for me due to the double time delay by NBC. By the time any of the games actually aired here in Southern California, I’d seen the results as well as reactions, descriptions and commentary from the live airing and the East Coast USA airing. As a consequence, I didn’t watch much of the games even when I turned them on, and with a lack of attention, it’s hard to get caught up in the emotion and enthusiasm. Why the Olympic digression in this golf apparel contest post? Well, if you saw the men’s beach volleyball, you surely didn’t miss the US team’s loud attire! They were sponsored and dressed by Loudmouth Golf, designer of some of the most unmistakable looks you’ll find on a golf course. It used to be if you saw a bright, loud design, you’d think “oh, that’s Loudmouth!” Now, you may have to think again. 

That’s Not Loudmouth

While the United States brings us the USGA and Loudmouth Golf, Europe brings us the R&A and Royal and Awesome golf trousers. Both apparel companies’ products are available internationally. Only one sent me samples that I am now going to pass along to you! That would be…

Royal and Awesome golf trousers! “For the pars and the bars.”

R and A trews

They don’t seem to make or sell women’s styles yet but I have one of each of the above (not those exact styles) to give away. Want to win a pair of trousers, shorts or a hat?

How to enter

Let me know over on my golfchick facebook page that you want one of them by posting a picture of something wild, fun & interesting on a golf course. Can be your own outfit, a crazy face, bizarre lie, weird or funny shrubbery… you get the idea. Be sure to indicate your desire for some Royal and Awesome swag! Once I get enough to choose from, I’ll select some winners and we can discuss it further here in the comments and/or over there. This is a totally casual, loose contest, entirely subjective to however I decide to choose (I may be influenced!) so just have fun with it and be creative! Hope to see you there!

Oh, and if for some reason you don’t want to win, I still encourage you to join in and share some crazy pics! :)

UPDATE: Royal and Awesome stopped in on my FB post and let us know they’ve got women’s pieces coming out in early September! Also, as of noon today (8/15), not a single entry has been submitted to win these. That makes me sad. No one wants to win??? I will update this post if/when the prizes are gone, so unless you see it, the contest is still open!

UPDATE: Good news: the contest for the Royal & Awesome duds is still going on, and the nice people there have told me you’ll be able to pick your style & size (including new women’s line and larger men’s sizes coming out next week)! 

So keep those pics coming on TGC Facebook page. And please help me decide on winners by clicking like and commenting on others! 

There will be 3 winners, one pair of pants, one shorts or skort, and one hat!
