GolfWRX Live at the 2020 PGA Show: Top 10 things we loved
As the 2020 PGA Show comes to a close for the crew at WRX. We went through the experience and all the pics and are now giving you the top 10 things we loved at the show.
G/FORE MG4+ Golf Shoe
If you were a fan of the look and feel of the popular knit MG4, then you’ll love the stability and more “golf feel” of the +.
Dormie Workshop “Tigers Woods” Crew Neck Knit Sweater
What else is there to say about this Canadian high-end accessory company, everything they do is on fire.
Criquet “Masters” shirts
What’s better than the Masters? The folks at the Austin-based Criquet gave a nod to the week we all love and the line flows from Monday to Sunday. There is even the “86” which is a nod to the Golden Bear’s final triumph.
Melin A-Frame Hydro Hat
Melin’s hat will be worn by Phil in 2020 is basically the only headwear packed with serious technology: a water-resistant exterior, and sweat-wicking interior lining, as well as Thermoflex snapback closure, and an anti-microbial sweatband.
Bobby Headcovers
Fresh, creative headcovers made of premium leather that’s both water and stain-resistant.
TRUE Linkswear Shoes
The all-new TRUE Linkswear line goes from slip-ons to weather battling shoes including knit materials to keep you comfy and dry.
MacKenzie Walker Golf Bags
The design is simple and classic, that’s the beauty of them. Made from high-quality materials including fine leather they are the perfect walking bag.
FlightScope MEVO+
This was the buzz product before the show started and judging by the people lined up to try it out the buzz was real. As of now, it is the most affordable radar launch monitor to offer ball and club data to the consumer.
Bettinardi HLX 3.0 Wedges
These wedges looked great with the iconic Bettinardi Honeycomb milling pattern on the back and offered in a satin chrome or black finish. The sole is milled into its final shape and the overall shape is more rounded but with a straighter leading edge. Forged out of soft carbon steel, these should offer a great solid feel with great responsiveness.
Swannies Golf “Goat” polo
Hailing from the northern state of Minnesota, this polo is creative in its design along with being subtle. Swannies Golf is making clothing that you can wear to the office and then still take out to the course for a twilight nine. Made from REPREVE polyester, the polo will keep you dry and cool in even the hot northern summers. The dancing pattern of goats, tigers, and trophies is a nod to one of the greatest to ever play the game.

From the Forums: I need more forgiveness in my irons – Looking for recommendations
In our forums, our members have been discussing the most forgiving irons currently on the market. WRXer ‘TheShark1’ is on the hunt for a new set of irons, saying:
“Currently gaming the Mizuno Pro 225’s but think I need more forgiveness in my irons. My well struck shots are real nice, but my mishits are not performing as good as I had hoped anymore. I really like hollow body irons so if I could find something more forgiving in a hollow body iron that would be great.
Open to any and all recommendations other than Ping. Can’t hit Ping irons at all.”
And our members have been sharing their best suggestions 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.
- AvidSwampThing66: “Another vote for the super forgiving and fast Paradym irons. They look really good for being a GI iron.”
- bobfoster: “I just went from MP20 MMCs to the new 245s in my scoring irons (just played my first round with them today). If you have a chance to try them, you might find them worth a serious look.”
- vman: “Shoot me down, but spend the money on lessons.”
- J_Tizzle: “i525s are great off the heel in my opinion.”

Yeah we’re gonna need a review on that Mevo+. I’ve been complaining about a $2k price-point for years.

Sorry the high-end golf technology companies of the world don’t cater to the lower end of the market. Build a product for sale at your price point or spend more money.
Always easier to complain

I’m surprised good tech doesn’t drop in price year after year like other electronics. Computers, televisions, tablets, etc… They all plummet in price and the newest one has a little more to offer. But these high end rigs just never drop a significant amount or ever become affordable.
