Forum Thread of the Day: GolfWRX Members love this golf bag
Today’s Forum Thread of the Day comes from Steelhead, who gave us a close look at his new Jones Trouper golf bag, and just like Steelhead, many of our members have been seriously impressed. The thread features plenty of in-hand photos of the new bags, and though many of our members have already dived in and ordered one for themselves, with Black Friday fast approaching, lots have been waiting for this week to get their hands on one.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say on the new golf bags at the link below.
- Blink3665: “I’ve been lurking on this thread since it started. With the Black Friday sale, I had to jump. I grabbed a Navy bag with a few extra goodies (If I’m gonna pay for shipping I might as well grab a few other things, right?)”
- slide13: “I’d say if you want to carry 14 clubs and don’t want a pretty tight fit, give the Trouper a try. I have the Utility, and it’s a cool bag, but I found it a super tight fit and not great with 14 clubs using midsize grips. Maybe regular grips help. I still like the bag, and I don’t mind using just 12 clubs or so which helps a little, but I’d still probably have found another solution if it was my main bag.”
- Dubv23: “As soon as I pulled the trouper out of the box today I knew it was going to be my favorite bag. It maintains a lot of the Utility styling but adds a lot of the features many wanted. The great thing is it does not make the bag that much bigger. Its taller from the bottom of the opening to the top but not much wider and very well thought out. The material is different than past utilities, and I would assume it was to shed weight. It has a hoofer like feel to the fabric but not so much to make it seem like it’s not a Jones bag. The opening is perfect and holds all 14 clubs perfect, the leg mechanism is smooth and much easier to release than the past, and the putter “well” is slick. “
- mr.hicksta: “After seeing those additional pics, I’m even more excited about getting mine! Jones Golf doesn’t mess around with shipping, either. Mine looks like it’ll arrive on Monday, which is nice and quick from Oregon to Hawaii!”

From the Forums: Help! I need a fairway finder 3-wood
In our forums, our members have been discussing their go-to 3-wood of choice. WRXer ‘Paretp’ is on the hunt for a fairway finding 3-wood, and kicks off the thread saying:
“The #2 spot in my bag lately has been a mystery…… which is troublesome because I need a fairway finder. Season is coming quick up here so I need to fill the fairway finder spot. Short par-4 or tight Par-5 tee. What you pulling?”
And our members have been sharing the 3-woods that don’t let them down.
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.
- phizzy30: “My OG SIM TI 3 metal has been my go to for all these years. I’ve tested a bunch of the recent fairway offerings and nothing’s been able to kick it outta the bag. It’s a larger profile with a deeper face but it works great off the tee.”
- WWTWD: “Callaway Paradym X 3W. Probably the greatest 3W I have ever owned in my life.”
- 03trdblack: “I replaced the 3 wood with a Taylormade 300 mini driver and never looked back.”
