Callaway to hook up Iowa high schooler who lost his golf clubs in tornado
Iowa high schooler Bradley Gebbie lost everything when his house was destroyed by tornadoes that ripped through the Greenville, Iowa area on Tuesday. And all the poor kid wants is some new golf clubs.
Gebbie was interviewed by WHO-13 in Des Moines about the destruction of his home. The youngster’s jovial disposition and focus on replacing his golf clubs resulted in a video clip from his interview going viral.
“I lost a lot, including my golf clubs,” Gebbie said. “I had like three grand into that. I’d like to shoutout Taylor Made and Titleist and Callaway. I really need a new set. I lost it, and I just love golf.”
Hey @Titleist @TaylorMadeGolf @CallawayGolf, which one of you wants to help this young man who lost his home in a tornado? Have a listen please.

Gebbie came with a game plan and executed to perfection. Plus, his plea worked.
WHO reporter Keith Murphy says Callaway Golf will provide Gebbie with new clubs and gear.
I’m happy to report @CallawayGolf is in touch with Bradley, who just graduated Nodaway High School Sunday, and Callaway says it will provide a full upgrade of clubs and gear.
Bradley was on the Wolverines’ golf team and his sense of humor at a tough time is inspiring.

That’s a pretty nice haul for Gebbie, who golfed for Nodaway Valley High School and just graduated on Sunday. He may have lost everything, but he has some new clubs coming his way.
Five people died and at least 35 were injured by the vicious tornadoes that caused massive destruction in Greenville and other cities. The tornadoes destroyed homes, cars and trees, among other things.
