3 Key Requirements for a Successful Million Dollar Shootout

So you’ve already received the necessary paperwork for your Million Dollar Shootout quote, right? Excellent! Then you only have a few things left to worry about – the “3 key requirements!”

  • Be sure to make your payment prior to the date of your event. Visa, MasterCard and American Express are all accepted methods of payment. You can even write us a check, so long as it’s postmarked by the U.S. Post Office at least one day prior to the event. Please note that we will not accept any checks that are postmarked the day of the event or after.
  • Because of the high value of the prize, you will need to provide two (2) witnesses over the age of 21, not participating in the event, one of which is a certified PGA Professional. You will also need to provide a continuous, unedited video tape from behind the green of all shots taken.
  • The yardage of the hole must be measured from the hitting area on the tee box to the hole cut on the green. Be sure this figure is not lower than what you have written on your application and that it meets our minimum requirement of 135 yards.

If you’re unsure about any rules or regulations, shoot us an email or go ahead and give us a call at 800-827-2249. One of our Customer Service Representatives would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Golfer Lands $1K for 50-ft Putt

Bottineau, N.D. – Proving you don’t need to be Tiger Woods or Jordan Speith to sink a 50-foot putt, Bruce Henderson recently won $1,000, courtesy of the Bottineau Country Club and paid for by Hole In One International, after he successfully sank an impressive 50-foot putt during the Bottineau Country Club’s Annual Bash For Cash Golf Tournament.

To get a chance to play in the putting contest, tournament participants paid $5. Before Saturday’s shotgun start, five lucky tournament participants were selected and given the chance to make the 50-footer.

Henderson was the 4th to putt and sank the 50-footer with ease. And, thanks to the fact that the tournament organizers had all the contestants turn their backs to the green so no one would have the advantage of reading the green, Henderson’s shot was that much more amazing.

Watch Henderson’s impressive putt … then give us a call, or swing by our website, to get started planning your 2022 event!
