UPDATE !!!!

Gang ... Here is a link to my Cally Booth Broadcast .. You can click on Follow now and when it goes live - BOOM


ALSO ... The service I am using is capturing all of the video I stream and will available online as well ater - dont know details - but on my control panel I have a "store" function ...

I am going to see if easyyy is cool with keeping this thread open for comments & requests - and I will start my LIVE thead with videos & pics & this link as well ... The Cally guys will be there watching with me and I will MAKE THEM answer ..

SO keep that link ... It's works perfectly !!

******* ROBO INVADES THE CALLAWAY PGA SHOW BOOTH  *********

What is up gang !!!!

OK !!!

After EXTENSIVE contract negotiations   Callaway has invited me to be a part of their booth experience for the PGA Merchandise Show ... with a twist

Here's what we're gonna do .. I will be in the Cally booth Thursday & Friday - but I am basically going to be the Boots on the Ground / Anderson Cooper reporter for Callaway & GolfWRX

I am going to be taking pics video - and updating a thread that I will start on Thursday early am - and updating HOURLY ... I will posting anything & everything ... I will be taking requests - NO promises that I get to them all - so feel free on this thread to make ANY requests you want to see from Callaway

Keep in mind - per Cally themselves - I will have access to EVERYTHING !!!! - and they are setting me up with a little workspace area with internet and power - so I will be uploading from the booth itself. But I have been told by them .. ROBO ... GO FOR IT ... The booth is yours !!! ...

******************** AND *****************

I am doing a final test tonight ... but .... The plan is ... I WILL BE STREAMING LIVE VIDEO THE ENTIRE TIME !!! ... or at least for as much as possible

I am 99% sure as now I can make it work ... Doing all I can with my crew to finalize it

GolfWRX & Callaway are going to have LIVE ROBOCAM !!!! .. I have a couple techies working on it today - to bascially use a small JVC Wifi Cam - We are working on attaching it to a visor or something like that .. and I will be stream as much live video as is possible ... I am sure power constraints might limit it a tad .. but I will do as much as as I can.

My plan is to be live / taking pics / shooting video & streaming live video for at least 40-45 minutes of every hour - and then take occasional stops to post pics and video links / recharge etc (and get a freaking stiff drink ... wheeew)

I'll do the best I can .. It might get messy - but it should be cool ... and I'll do everything I can to make you guys feel like your there with me ... I've never done anything like this .. but I'll give it my all no matter what ...

So ...

Feel free to ask anything CALLWAY on this thread... I will do all I can to get to all of them ... I am going to take 348364378563785563875563456 pics ... We are going to leave this thread open until EARLY Thursday AM - and then we will lock it & I will begin my live thread.

I talked to easyyy - and of course the full WRX crew are still gonna roll thru the Callaway Booth anyway - and they will be there for the Demo Day - I will not. So WRX is still doing EVERYTHING they normally do - this is just gonna be an added bonus. I can't wait to finally meet easyyy anyway

I think Cally - THINK - Is also gonna carry the live link on their site - not 100% sure on that

SO .. There it is ... ROBO LIVE AT CALLY ... Bare with me if I stumble out of the gate - but I'm trying hard -bare with me . Check back Thursay early am for my "Live at Cally Thread" .. I can't wait !!! .. But you guys & gals will be there right with me .. Or I will at least do all I can to make you feel like you are there regardless

AND PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!! .. if you are going to be there - Please say Hi to me .. I will need all the encouragement I can get .. I am sure I will be a train wreck for a while. I'm already nervous.

I MIGHT !!!!!!! have Wrx PokerChips too .. easyyy mentioned it - but no promises on that yet ... but I'm working on it

ASK AWAY Cally fans ... ANYTHING you can think of .. I have access to everything & EVERYONE ( wink wink) ... I'll do all I can ..

See ya soon !!!!!!

Can you find out if they have plans to offer the Project X PXi as an upcharge or non upcharge option in the X-Hot Pro Irons.  I hit them this week, and not only do the look great but they feel great as well.  I just got along with the PXi better the Project X 95.  i can't wait to do the shoot out between the Rocketballz tour fairway and the X-Hot this week as well.  I look forward to all your coverage.

[lvmike]

Thanks Robo and Callaway!!  What a great way to start my Tuesday (I'm on the west coast...)!!

Get some info on the rumored new wedges that Callaway is releasing this year...I heard Harry was saying that they're going through Tour testing right now...since you have access to EVERYONE (how cool is that!!), go find Roger and get the scoop!

[station2station]

Good - can't wait to see what you look like - and if you have a smooth or wiry coat...

[scratchswinger]

This is a really cool idea, great job!

Get the booth girls to walk in front of the live cam like Miss America and we can vote off that rather than photos. I like to see how they move before I cast my vote.

[knudson81]

Oh man, does Callaway know what they are getting themselves into?!!!! Should be awesome ROBO, I know you will make it another thread to remember!

I want a Harry vs. Chad putting match and the loser has to sport a Solaire bag with their name and "cupcake" on it all year!

[OUZO Power]

Pic Request: LH X Utility.

Thanks Robo.

[ladahl]

I want ROBOcam POV at cocktail hour

+1 (times a thousand )

[Chopshop23]

This sounds great !!

More info on the new HX golf ball would be great.

[MadGolfer76]

Hey ROBO, can you get the low-down on the new wedges?

I'm going to vote "No."  They don't know what they've done.

Yes!  It's my last part of my dream purchase!  LOL

[tbowles411]

Honestly, wedges, and close up pics of the X-Hot hybrids and Pro hybrids.  Ball lowdown (yellow) and maybe some shoe action.    And someone tell me if a 20 can handle a X utility proto iron!

[timbo08]

Wow seriously awesome!  Please get the info on the new wedge line, and if they have a book/chart somewhere upload all the clubs that come in lefty.  Yes I realize the website probably has this but they are somewhat difficult to navigate and I think if it just were in one simple chart of all 2013 clubs that'd be better.  Thanks and have fun Robo!

[J13]

Robo my brotha!!!  Callaway just unleashed a hurricane in the middle of the PGA Merch show.  Can't wait for the live coverage and dont worry any mistakes will make it that much better.  ANd don't forget to interview some pretty ladies ;-)

We're all about the ladies!  Unless you're not...  never mind.  

[Imp]

ROBO! Don't forget to shut it off this time when you hit the head (bathroom)!!!  

My 1st and probably only request: Info on the putter fitting tool/method for the new Versa Putters. (Or is that only with Odyessy?)

THANK!

OK, that's just crazy talk!

[tbowles411]

Is it just me, or am I the only one coming back here every 10 minutes hoping there's something to look at???

Me too.

[jokerusn]

ROBO, can you get all the coverage on the White Hot Pros - every model weight, etc.?  Also, since you're going to have access to everyone and everything, maybe get Harry and the gang to spill the beans on the deep faced fw for the tee.  (and then send me one in Rh.  )

You're going to do great!  Just be you.

Pretty cool ROBO !! Can't wait !!

[gr8blueheronbird]

ROBO,  ask them to reconsider and release the #7 Versa putter with a center shaft in the good old USA. Many other folks would like that as well.
