Contest Giveaway – Win a Set of Nike Golf Balls

Other posts by MudslideMama

Welcome to the next Winning Wednesday! Almost everybody likes to win things, and we TravelingMamas like to help you try. What can we say? We’re givers.

This giveaway week reflects on MudslideMama’s trip to La Quinta Resort & Club in Palm Springs, CA. A little goodie picked up there is this slick set of 6 golf balls from the SilverRock Golf Course. Emblazoned with the SilverRock logo and made by Nike, these golf balls look like they could lower anyone’s handicap.

Win a Set of Golf BallsPalm Springs California is a golfer’s paradise, and is often referred to as PGA West. SilverRock Golf Course in La Quinta is pretty new, and will be one of the four golf courses for next year’s PGA Bob Hope Chrysler Classic Games. Want to know more? Golf Magazine just named the Arnold Palmer Classic Course at SilverRock one of the Top 10 New Courses That You Can Play. In other words, if golf balls can have a a relative degree of luxe-ness associated with them, these balls got it, baby!

Now, MudslideMama’s family had a great vacation at La Quinta Resort & Club, even though none of us play golf. Hence, a somewhat ironic contest giveaway. Rather than dwell on this, though, just enter to win – in a message below, tell us what your favorite thing to do at a luxury resort is (or would be). Is it the spas? The fine dining? Or even – golf? Don’t be shy; I can tell you I have a hard time saying no to mixed drinks by the pool, myself.

We’ll take comments until midnight (EST), Tuesday February 12, and put all the entrants’ names in a hat to draw one on Winning Wednesday, February 13. Check back then right here to see who won. Drawing open to U.S. residents only; family members of any TravelingMama blogger shouldn’t apply.
