I'm starting to wonder about my prize.

Anyone else got theirs?  Just thought I should check in.

Have not received anything yet.  Either something is amiss or they shipped using the slowest method possible.

As of this past Monday, their Facebook page mentioned they were still shipping.  Guess we should be more patient since it ended on the 14th and they said 3-5 days to ship.

Always changing:

 

Driver: Cobra S2/Nike VR Pro 10.5º

Irons: Callaway X-20 Tour 4-9i

Hybrid: Titleist 910H 19º & 21º

Wood: TaylorMade R11 3w

Putter: Odyssey White Hot

Wedges: Titleist Vokeys - 48º, 54º, 62º

 

First round: February 2011

Hey guys/gals. It took a bit longer than we would have liked due to the shear amount of stuff we had to coordinate (from boxes, to postcards to sole straggler prizes showing up)....but none the lest some shipped yesterday and some will ship today. Tracking number should be out be EOD. Thanks Matt

To be clear, I was referring to the giveaway Shotly had on the site for over 1000 dollars in prizes.

I'm with Paradox. I'm curious about the winners and not the grab bag. The grab bag offer thread says the same thing about tracking numbers and shipping yesterday and today. I'm wondering if anyone got the price they won yet. I have not. Hoping to get it soon. Very happy to have won...

Still nothing as of today.  If I ever get anything, even a note saying why they didn't ship a prize, I'll be amazed.  Come on, Shotly, amaze me!

My guess is they are still overwhelmed by the Grab bag and have left the sweepstakes prizes wait since they were prizes and not paid for items.  If you don't hear anything by end of next week I'd be more concerned.

No prizes for the sweepstakes winners after nine weeks (seven since winners were announced). No reply to my PM's.

Fulfilling the prizes in a timely manner is not optional. There are rules and laws and States Attorneys who love this stuff. It seems silly that such a small drawing, started with good intentions, could become a legal mess. But Shotly, and her officers, do not not have the option to just do nothing in hopes that it will go away. That kind of thing destroys the integrity of all sweepstakes that follow the rules, manage them professionally, and yet people think they are a scam -- because they have heard of this sort of thing happening. I will not let this die without making a stink.

Just send the prizes.

Good, I hope you really do stir the pot on this topic.  Based on how Shotly has managed the sweepstakes and Grab Bag debacles, I am betting they are operating so far in the red that they are having to finance current commitments with future offers.  Truly unbelievable how poor of business sense the Shotly group appears to have.  They're amateurs in every imaginable facet.

I left a response on their facebook page but it is still unanswered.

I keep coming to the thread to see if anyone has gotten their winnings yet.  I see that I'm not alone in confirming that the answer is a resounding "NO".


Posted

I saw an "Apology" letter of sorts on another post.  They said that they will be open only three days a month and that their site would be by "Invitation Only".  Someone who bought the grab bag got the invitation.  I haven't seen mine yet.

Has anyone who won a prize in the first Shotly contest gotten their prize or an invitation to participate in their new "deals of the month"?


Posted

I am going out on a limb here and saying that the drawing prizes are as good as forgotten.  They may have never even intended to send out prizes...only draw interest to their new business.  At this point(after seeing prizes I was told I won sent out as grab bag prizes later on) I really don't want the prize.  I thought it was very cool that a company would offer up prizes for doing such a simple thing..but I guess theres always a catch :)

Wow, about a week ago I had put a comment on Shotly's facebook page about the prizes...with no answer.  Now today, I see that I'm no longer a "fan" of their page and my comment has been deleted.  True class.  THe post wasn't even spiteful, just asked for information about the contest prizes.

    • Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.  
    • Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down. 
    • I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.   
    • Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.  
    • Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
