I thought this would be a cool topic to list what you like the best about this website. You can only list 1 thing so make it be what you love best about GolfWRX. Please do not comment if you don't have anything nice to say.

*** Mods I don't know if this is in the right section, but I thought it would be nice to see what everyone likes best about the the website and the community.***

The thing that makes me love this website and community so much is how helpful other members are to each other. We could keep all the advice,tips, and suggestions to ourselves and not help out anyone, but instead we insist on helping each other find the correct equipment, fix each others swing flaws, and lastly voice our opinions. Sure they lead to debates, but it is the SHARING OF KNOWLEDGE that I feel is the best thing about GolfWRX

Coverage of the PGA tour equipment through photos and video, as well as oem coverage (kingdom, ecpc, wade, etc).  It's the best in golf.

Agreed, the inside look of the OEMs and trips are amazing. It makes you feel like you're right there. The newest TM RBZ experience is a perfect example of the WRX greatness!

I love how helpful some members are. Advice, opinions, everything. I am far from knowledgable on all things golf and love that I can search a subject and read for an hour or more on a particular subject. Last year I researched used irons sets to upgrade my starter set. Got opinions from people, and read for a few hours before settling on my used Mizunos. Soon as I got them I thanked everyone on the boards. This site is great.

Very timely question, as I just posted twice on here about my recent reviews of my new clubs. This site allowed me to do a ton of research of golfers that share my same or similar swing characteristics, physical make-up and such in in doing so, resulted in my purchase of better equipement that matches me perfectly.  It is the "WikiGolf" site in my opinion and I have turned on at least 20 folks to this site for the same reasons.  Cheers.

Able to make much more informed purchase decisions.

And I know you said to keep it positive but there is a downside to this post. According to my wife I am making too many informed purchase decisions since joining this forum....

It feeds my inner-ho like no other.  ;)

In general though, I've connected with a lot of guys and expanded my game in a way I never would have been able to otherwise.  This place is an endlessly reliable resource to expand knowledge, understanding and concepts of the game, and if you are smart enough to navigate around the BS that you really are going to get anywhere on the internet, it's kind of magical.

The thing I love the most is how we can learn about things that we would never hear about otherwise (i.e. insider info and equipment). Oh, and some specific posters that are always hilarious (MTLJeff, Thrillhouse, etc). This is just an amazing community where we can share our passions (and addictions). Kind of like GCHA (golf club Hos anonymous).
