APPLY: The Titleist Pro V1 Experience

Published

on

From July 12-13, eight (8) WRX members will gain exclusive access to Titleist and its world-class golf ball development facilities, all located within a 5-mile radius of each other in Greater New Bedford, Mass., where Titleist has been making golf balls since the 1930s.

This two-day experience will take you inside Titleist World Headquarters and Titleist Ball Plant 3, where you will meet the people and explore the technology that goes into making next generation Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls. You will spend an afternoon at Titleist’s Manchester Lane Test Facility, one of the game’s hidden gems, to see Titleist’s golf ball testing robots in action and conduct product testing of your own. And you’ll get a behind-the-scenes tour of TItleist’s custom ball operations (Plant C), where My Pro V1’s come to life (you can expect some on-course testing and friendly competition, as well. So pack your clubs.)

TO APPLY YOU MUST

  • Be a GolfWRX Forum Member in good standing
  • Willing to drive or provide your own transportation (round trip) to the host hotel in New Bedford, Mass.

    I heard Callaway is doing the same ‘Chrome-otion’ very soon but they have ice cream!

    Sounds so amazing. Just seeing how they make a golf ball has been a life long dream and I get to bring my own clubs (which are so dialed in). It is so much better to bring my own clubs and not get a free set and thankfully I will probably get 2x the points on my credit card when I book my room. For a life long titleist player this is THE DREAM COME TRUE.

    Pack my clubs? I am going a titleist manufacturing plant. They should take a couple minutes and dial in 13 clubs. IT won’t take long. Just 718 mbs, with pured S400 tour issue shafts. DONE. I’ll bring my putter and expect them to supply the rest.

    No offense, but who wants to pay for travel and lodging to watch the balls get made….

Why Ludvig Aberg is my new favorite player – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing one of the new sensations in the world of golf – Ludvig Aberg. The 24-year-old finished solo second at the Masters a couple of weeks ago, and gained many plaudits, including from several WRXers.

One member, RoyalMustang, took to the forums to explain why Aberg is now their favorite player, saying:

“I loved the way the Ludvig was out there, having a great time, not taking himself or the situation too seriously. Even after the double at 11, he was like “well, that’s golf!” Loose and relaxed: that’s the way to play. It’s obvious he loves what he’s doing, he loves the big moments, and he loves being a part of it all.

Arnold Palmer was viewed that way. Just like Brooks Robinson was forever viewed as not just a great baseball player, but a great human being and friend to Baltimore.”

And our members have been reacting and sharing their positive takes on the young Swede.

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.

  • redfirebird08: “Ludvig has a great attitude, a great smile, and a great golf swing.”
  • otto6457: “I’m very lucky to have talked with Ludde several times at the Rawls Course at Texas Tech.  He’s a truly nice guy and very friendly.  Always said hello when we passed each other in the club house and was always smiling. Watching him hit balls on the range was a joy.  He has “that sound” and trajectory to die for.  There were many times he was out on the range in 30+ mph winds just hitting the most beautiful shots that just seemed to ignore the wind.  World class ball striker. And yes……..I am a fan boy.”
  • konklifer: “I like him. In an era of endless waggles and laboring, his swing and pace of play are a joy to watch.
