Introducing the GolfN Store and its first sweepstakes

Big news, GolfN members: we know you’ve been caching your GolfN collectible sets for several months now and banking your XP. With the holidays upon us, we are pleased to reveal the first experience where you can use them to win awesome prizes.

Introducing The GolfN Store

The GolfN Store is a digital storefront in the caching portal. You can use your XP to enter auctions or sweepstakes, mint special edition collectibles, and win exclusive products and experiences. These prizes include new clubs, memorabilia, golf trips, and pretty much any rare or coveted item a golfer would crave that we can get our hands on. We’ve already got a locker full of awesome prizes to put up. Win one of these sweepstakes, and 2025 will be an epic year indeed.

The kicker? These store items will be listed as digital collectibles that are tradable. So you could win a trip or product with your XP and resell it on the open market or gift it to a friend.

The more XP you have earned, the more entries you can enter into the sweepstakes at the Store. So be sure to keep caching sets, and signing up for the app waitlist.

And when the GolfN app goes live in 2025, there will be even more ways to earn and use XP.

The store has been conveniently added as a new tab to the existing caching portal, so you’ll always be able to check in on new items and experiences to bid on.

GolfN Store kickoff event: Pappy Van Winkle 20-Year Family Reserve sweepstakes

Winter nights are always better with a dram by the fire. So we’ve partnered with Baxus, a new marketplace using the Solana blockchain to store and trade rare and fine spirit bottles via NFTs, to bring you the first GolfN Store Sweepstakes item: A Pappy Van Winkle 20-year Family Reserve 750ml bourbon from Kentucky. This premium spirit has been selling on Baxus for $3,969.

The distiller describes it as “The #1 rated Bourbon Whiskey in the world with a 99 out of 100 rating by the World Spirits Championship. This bourbon is aged 20 years and bottled at 90.4 proof for a wonderfully smooth and rich profile. Pappy Van Winkle was a true character, and like its namesake, this bourbon whiskey is full of character – quite a remarkable whiskey.”

The Pappy Van Winkle sweepstakes is now live through December 30.

How to enter the Pappy Van Winkle GolfN sweepstakes

This initial Pappy Van Winkle sweepstakes is open to all GolfN cardholders with cached sets and a points balance in the portal. Here's how to enter:

1. Visit the GolfN caching portal's new "Store" tab and connect your wallet. Your XP balance will show.

2. Enter the amount of XP you’d like to enter into the sweepstakes. Each XP = 1 entry. You can enter as much XP as you’d like and enter or add XP anytime until December 30. Your XP will be deducted from your portal balance.

3. A winner will be randomly drawn and announced at the conclusion of the sweepstakes (December 30). The winner must create a Baxus account and redeem the NFT there to enter shipping details and receive the physical bottle of Pappy Van Winkle.
