  Do the rest of the world get a free dove + golf balls regardless of nationality?

  Does seem a little unfair that only american users can receive it... We got dove mencare products over here in the U.K. you know!!

  Watched the vid, played the game... then tried to complete prize draw form...lol might aswell have stuck a tee up my ***....

  Hi mate !

  let me tell you what I had to do.....I always use Firefox but could not get the balls with that browser for some reason.....so do this

  1st ---Use INTERNET EXPLORER ONLY....before you sign in TURN OFF YOUR POP--UP BLOCKER  on Explorer

  2nd---THEN sign in and go to the screen and watch the vid and it will give you the ball......took me 3 days to figure it out.....still can't figure out why I couldn't use Firefox.....but this was is always working for me now.

  ps----keep it on the short stuff too

  I use Google Chrome and have no trouble getting the free ball.

  The biggest issue seems to be that people don't understand where the ball is given.  On the second screen, where you go to play a game, a pop up appears, once a day only, and gives you the chance to watch a 30 second video.  After watching it you click on continue and the ball is put into your bag.  There is a tournament going on as well, that lets you attempt to hit a shot close to the hole and enter a competetion for prizes.  This is also run by Dove but doesn't get you the free balls.

  There is a limit of one ball a day and I believe that after you get the one, the free ball advertisement goes away until the next day.  Thanks to Dove for giving the balls to the WGT members, hopefully more sponsors will do this, I think it is a win / win for all the parties involved.

  Cheers for that TNP, 

  I have tried the above it doesn't seemed to have worked however, maybe that pop up was already blocked earlier with firefox so I'll try again tomorrow..

  I also downloaded chrome.... which is defo better for WGT...

  I'll report back if and when I get my hands on those dove balls

  Mutts...

  Reporting back with unfortunate news...

   

  We are not worthy of Dove golf balls in Europe...

  This wouldn't happen in the Ryder cup would it...

  Boo!
