GolfWRX forums exist so golfers have access to the latest equipment releases, hottest discussions, real equipment reviews, best instruction, new technologies and everything golf you can imagine. So if you love golf, the GolfWRX forums are your sanctuary.

In the From the Forums weekly feature, we bring you the hottest, most buzz-worthy topics from our forums for your convenience. I’ll be your trusty tour guide to navigate the latest buzz. Here’s a peek behind the curtain into golf’s sanctuary.

My favorite club ever is worth 97 cents…

Depreciating more rapidly than your Mercedes Benz C300, golf equipment isn’t know for maintaining its value—unless of course you’re talking about Circle T Camerons. We’ve had discussions in the past about the Titleist PTs of the world: Outdated clubs that golfers cling to out of a both a contentedness with performance and sentimental attachments. Along these lines, user Jslane57 writes of the results of his PGA Value Guide mining: “My whole bag was about $100.00 and the club I built it all around (a mid 1980’s TaylorMade TPA V) was worth a whole ninety seven cents!”

Anyone have similar experiences? Attached to club you could buy with the change in your dashboard console? See the thread.

What will be in Tiger’s bag when he wins his next major?

Premise No. 1 in this fire-takes-aplenty thread: Tiger Woods will win another major championship. And the second premise: No. 15 will come some time in relatively short order. And whether you agree with either premise, you’ve got to check out this thread. And count the “Tiger’s Nike irons were forged by Miura” conspiracy theorists while you’re at it.

See the thread.

What putter did you using during your best putting stretch?

Simple question equals great thread in this one: During your best putting stretch, which putter were you using? And as a follow-up, I’d add: Why the heck did you switch to a different flatstick?

Check out the thread.

Most overrated course in the major rotation?

Not to throw shade, but some recurrent major venues are, let’s say, unduly lathered with the fluffy foam of unconditional positive regard. JD3, who begs the question in this thread, offers up Whistling Straits as a venue unworthy of widespread acclaim.

Want to defend Pete Dye’s Sheboygan effort? What venues are undeservedly “major”? Join the discussion.

From the Classifieds…

A bounty of world-beating equipment for sale in the For Sale forum, as per usual.

Here’s one particular mouthful: “Mannkrafted Notched Brassie, 34″, 355 grams, face-balanced, head cover, Hot Stix 2014 putter of the month.” User rkochies 4580 is offering this superb weapon from custom, handcrafted putter maker, Mannkrafted for sale.

From the Forums: How are you liking TaylorMade’s Qi10 fairway woods?

Gianni Magliocco

In our forums, our members have been discussing TaylorMade’s new Qi10 fairway woods. WRXer ‘ace036’ plans on testing them in the next few weeks, saying: “from how they look from address and frame the ball is much more appealing to my eye versus my current Paradym fairway woods.” And our members have been sharing their positive feedback in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

Edwardsr: “I got fit into the Qi10 core model with Ventus TR Black 8X and it’s absolutely amazing for me.During the fitting with my 12-15 swings with it, it was the most efficient combo I’ve ever tested, tons of 1.48 smash and 3 or 4 1.49 smash (which I don’t think I’ve ever gotten on 3 wood on a launch monitor).”
MiloMalt: “No complaints and so far only high praise for my Qi10 Tour 3 and 5 wood. I’m getting great numbers and a nice penetrating ball flight with great height whereas with my old TSi2 4 wood it was spinny and ballooning and short because of that.”
courcy75: “The Qi10 Tour 3 wood I just put in play has been outstanding for me. Finally found something I like as much as the 07 burner tp.”
