GolfWRX is in the house….. PING’s HOUSE
Looks like Ping and GolfWRX are getting together. GolfWRX travels to Ping to get exclusive look deep inside the PING headquarters.
Here are quick snippets from the trip. If you want to see the discussion you can look in the forums here.
Ping makes custom bags for the editors from GolfWRX. See it here.
Milling perrrrrfect grooves in Ping Tour Gorge wedges. See it here.
This is the bag a GolfWRX staffer George came up with. He was going to just do the black base and top piece…BUT they had a couple one-off options. He immediately ruled out lime green and asked myself, “wwbd?” (what would bubba do). See it here
Zak K. getting fitted using iPing and a huge piece of the flattest slab of granite we know of. See more here
The bag is the Mascot Team bag. It’s a slick little bag, that I look forward to taking out. It’s got a removable ball pocket panel–I actually asked if they could embroider my name in pink after the fact, to match the handle and bottom, so I have an extra one with my name in black. There are 8 stock colors and 13 custom colors (with multiple color combination choices), but sadly they are only available for team orders. And definitely not available with the handle/base choices. Not sure what all constitutes a team, but HERE’S the link to the details.
More bags for the GolfWRX staff custom made with Logo and names. See more photos here

In our forums, our members have been talking about hot driving irons. WRXer ‘Russian7’ is on the hunt for a driving iron offering maximum ball speed and distance with no spin, and our members have been sharing their picks 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.
- bcflyguy1: “From word of mouth anecdotes to testing done by other forums, think P790 UDI is as likely as anything to give you what you’re after.”
- jblough99: “If you don’t mind em with a little junk in the trunk, look at the G425 crossover. Everything I’ve read/seen claims very forgiving and goes forever. No first-hand experience, though.”
- Luxor54: “The exotics Ti-utility is probably up there.”
- norsebynorsewest: “Seconded on the PXG 0311X. I play a one iron, and the thing is a utility rocket. It honestly feels like it should be illegal.”

In our forums, our members have been discussing Ping irons. WRXer ‘LowAndLeft32’ wants to hear what our members believe are the best additions from the brand over the past five years, with the i210 irons proving a popular choice.
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.
- PEI_Golfer: “Hard pressed to beat the i210s.”
- realmfg: “Blueprints.”
- eric61: “Love the i210s — they’re easily the answer here, in my opinion. I really liked the i59s, too, but not as much as the i210s, and I think their price point maybe has meant a lot of people didn’t even end up trying them. G-series irons are fine too. If you’re in that segment of the market, the last few years it’s been the latest G irons vs the latest Hot Metals for the top of the pecking order, in my opinion.”
- Cwhite912: “Easy, I210, Blueprint, iBlade.”

In our forums, our members have been discussing easy to launch fairway woods. WRXer ‘Pete52’ hits his woods too low, and our members have been sharing their best picks to solve his problem 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.
- JKJKJK: “I had the easiest time to elevate from the deck with G425 Max 3Wood/5Wood with Motore F3 shaft. Flies really high and easy to hit.”
- DoughBack18: “Sim2 Ti. Has a lot of weight on the sole, and you can really launch it high. I’ve always had a slightly lower trajectory, got this in a 5 wood, and it’s worked really nicely filling the gap I had at the top end of my bag.”
- Valtiel: “Any of the modern Pings are a good litmus test for elevation. If you can’t get those off the ground then you know the problem ain’t the club.”
