User Warrick tells a tale of his strangest find (and likely some disappointed stoners). A fantastic thread rounding up some of the most absurd finds from the golf course. See the thread.

Most Significant Tournament Missing from Tiger’s Resume?

Certainly, there are no “holes” on Tiger Woods’ resume from the junior to the professional level, per se. But if you had to pick out a tournament Woods would like to have on his curriculum vitae, what would it be? Plenty of good discussion in this one. See the thread.

You Know You’re Old When…

Beyond watching casual 20-year-old golfers ripping it over 300 yards with ease, there are no shortage of golf-related reminders that we’re not as young as we once were. For WRXer Night Train, who started the thread, his notice was served when his son, a casual golfer, told him his average 7-iron carry. See the thread.

Your In-Season Workout Routine

WRXer Radiman tells his story of weight loss and getting in better shape for golf, but as he says, “I find is that playing within two days of my last workout has proven to be disastrous.” Thus, he wonders how others in the WRX community workout during the golf season. Excellent discussion, here. See the thread.

    900 forged isn’t game improvement. That’s a low-mid capper iron.

      My experiences led me to believe that the Apex’s are more forgiving than the 900 forged. I own the latter because I liked the looks better and assumed I could just improve my ball striking. Classic mistake. Still both great irons but if you don’t have time to practice– I’d recommend Apex.

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

Published

on

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.”
