I like it, fun idea. Goes nicely with all of the long hitters they've added to their staff. Callaway should give one or two with each X Hot driver they sell.

However, looking at Two Gloves' bag, at the third tournament of the year, I think 325 yards to earn a patch might be little low His bag is already covered up pretty good.

Maybe that's the point... fill up all the staffers bags with patches to the point where they are falling off everywhere... people will pick them up on the course, at the clubhouse, on the street and be curious about #XHotBomb... world domination is next. Okay, maybe not.

I would think you would also qualify for one if you get hit by one of Phil's drives.

I love the idea. Great work Callaway. Now I want some patches to sell! Of course only to the customers that hit it passed 325yds on a launch monitor

lol... I think this might be the worse promotions ever... And 325? Thats not even that long anymore

Face painting is the worst promotion ever.

LOL!!

Actually it would be funny seeing TM staffers running around a tour event wearing face paint. They seem to be running out of Ad space on players, maybe TM should try it out.

Monkeynaut and FairwayGolfUSA.com, those are both EXCELLENT ideas. I'll talk to Harry about it.

If you meant Moneynaut's tighty whitey idea, then please at least make options available for those who favor boxer briefs or those hanging loose in boxers. Just sayin...

Very shrewd marketing campaign. Whether purists here acknowledge it or not, 99% of consumers are only interested in more distance so any promotion that brings the focus on distance will attract alot of attention in the marketplace. You need to remember that the majority of recreational golfers hit it around 200 so any perceived gain in distance would catch their eye.

Patches please!

Make 'em work for it or it won't be worth a damn. Have a pro sign for it or get a screenshot of a GPS and let them mail that in. Don't let liars spoil a good idea.

Nope, they actually just gave them to my two boys that were with me. I would not been able to hit a drive that long to "earn" them. Going to put them on my 7 and 4 year olds bags

I got a sticker last week in addition to a pretty neat ball marker / coin which I am putting into my rotation.

That's cool!

[JB lefty]

Those x bomb patches and ball markers are top shelf. I was at Callaway HQ in Oz yesterday and they did not have these and I asked a few times. If anyone can help me out and grab me a couple or a ball marker I would be grateful and would be happy to do some sort of swap or reimburse costs etc.

I'd like some as well but but I have no clue who to talk to.

[Bobalu]

Ebay sellers.

[PutterHo]

^ yup .... ebay is correct.  Had to snag a couple myself.

[wundej]

I've got a few. They had a bunch at the local golf galaxy. I asked if I could grab a few and he said to take as many as I wanted, they had a ton.
If someone wants to pay for postage I'll ship one out to the first 3 people that want one. The rest are going to some friends locally. I can't believe they are selling these on ebay.(nevermind, yes I can).
They are kinda a fabric patch but seems like sticker adhesive under the peel-off paper backing.
