OK, so maybe it's not that easy. But if you take the time to head over to the National Golf Foundation's American Golf Census, you could be teeing it up at Pebble Beach, Pinehurst or any number of courses in Scotland and Ireland.
The American Golf Census is an effort by the NGF to quantify the amount and frequency of golf being played in the U.S., taken directly from the golfers themselves. The information gathered will be used to demonstrate to policymakers the game's effect on the country as a whole.
So to encourage participation, the NGF has instituted a sweepstakes in conjunction with the census. Running through election day, Nov. 2, participants in the census will be entered in drawings for one of six grand prizes, which include the previously mentioned vacations to Pebble Beach or Pinehurst, instruction at the Annika Academy in Orlando and a "tournament weekend in Augusta, Ga" (hmmmm ... I wonder what tournament they're talking about?). Also on the line will be golf equipment from Callaway, Nike and TaylorMade.
For more information, visit the American Golf Census website or the online home of the National Golf Foundation.
