FTF: WRXers call Varner to dab, Height/Putter discussion

Published

on

The GolfWRX forums exist so golfers have access to the latest equipment releases, hottest discussions, real equipment reviews, best instruction, new technologies and everything golf you can imagine.

So if you love golf, the GolfWRX forums are your sanctuary.

In the From the Forums weekly feature, we bring you the hottest, most buzz-worthy topics from our forums for your convenience. I’ll be your trusty tour guide to navigate the latest buzz.

Here’s a peek behind the curtain into golf’s sanctuary.

They were calling for the dab in forums…

User Llortamaisey started a thread with this post:

Dear Harold Varner III:

“I know you read GolfWRX so I wanted to send out a request for this week’s tournament. Would you please put on a Cam Newton jersey on the 16th hole and dab your way to the green. The Panthers need this. Cam needs this. Golf needs this.”

Now, we can’t confirm HVIII reads WRX. However, we can confirm that he did indeed dab it up at the 16th.

See the thread  for a full discussion of the etiquette of dabbing in golf.

The great debate: Where do your clubs live in the winter?

The car? The garage? Elsewhere in the house?

New user BonziGolf decided to make his first post a memorable one with this gem: “Keep them by your bed to annoy your significant other and remind them that golf season is right around the corner

Offer your take in the thread.

Height/ putter length discussion 

ck putter

A topic you’re unlikely to see discussed in such detail anywhere else: User kidkendo started the thread by indicating that he’s 6-feet tall and plays a 34-inch putter. Then he asked what other WRXers are gaming and what height they are.

This, of course, led into the discussion of wrist-to-floor measurements as dictator of club length versus personal preference. And personal preference is at a premium with the putter more so than any other club in the bag.

It’s an interesting discussion and one’s that’s seen a ton of traffic and replies in the few days since the first post.

Check it out.

Reactions to Bubba’s latest… 

Bubba_G_Driver_leak

You can always find chatter about the hot topics in the world of pro golf in the GolfWRX forums. User imakaveli linked the Golf Channel report about Bubba’s Watson’s curious comments at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

Q: Why do you like this golf course?

His answer: “I don’t like it. I’m not going to be PC it. I don’t like it at all. I just mentioned why I’m here. I’ve got three beautiful sponsors that love it here.”

Predictably, users had a bevy of hot takes on the latest example of “Bubba being Bubba.”

    At the risk of upsetting golfwrx’er “Steve” for my less than stellar comments/opinions about his hero Sergio Garcia, I’ll keep my true venom to myself in regards to fan “un”favorite crybaby Blubber, yes,
    Blubber “after I win any tournament” Watson. Another ungrateful, entitled, spoiled, 1%’er, childish,
    overpaid whiner! Sick of these clowns!! Oops, sorry Steve, I couldn’t help myself and the spitting monster got out. I’ll try harder next time not to offend you, his fans, or interested family members. May you post a triple digit score this weekend!

    Cheers

From the Forums: How are you liking TaylorMade’s Qi10 fairway woods?

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing TaylorMade’s new Qi10 fairway woods. WRXer ‘ace036’ plans on testing them in the next few weeks, saying: “from how they look from address and frame the ball is much more appealing to my eye versus my current Paradym fairway woods.” And our members have been sharing their positive feedback 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.

  • Edwardsr: “I got fit into the Qi10 core model with Ventus TR Black 8X and it’s absolutely amazing for me.During the fitting with my 12-15 swings with it, it was the most efficient combo I’ve ever tested, tons of 1.48 smash and 3 or 4 1.49 smash (which I don’t think I’ve ever gotten on 3 wood on a launch monitor).”
  • MiloMalt: “No complaints and so far only high praise for my Qi10 Tour 3 and 5 wood. I’m getting great numbers and a nice penetrating ball flight with great height whereas with my old TSi2 4 wood it was spinny and ballooning and short because of that.”
  • courcy75: “The Qi10 Tour 3 wood I just put in play has been outstanding for me. Finally found something I like as much as the 07 burner tp.”
