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.

Anybody longing for the days of persimmon clubs?

Nostalgia alert. User jmcorr4 started a thread pining for the days of persimmon woods, writing, “The gear back then was hand made, crafted by artists, not stamped out by the truck load in China.”

He then posed the question, “Anyone else miss the old days?” Now, Mr. jmcorr4 doesn’t sound like he’s longing for a return to plus-fours and featheries, but rather, the era prior to the titanium-club head boom. So, longing for the crack of persimmon on balata?

Join the discussion.  

What putter are you gaming this season?

As this is a thread that lends itself to photos, we’ll follow suit with the description — a pretty straightforward call for putter porn. And of course, the WRX faithful responded with oodles of the stuff. Some truly lascivious content.

Check out the putters/share your gamer.

Fowler’s pants at the Masters

post-244901-0-56456600-1460174272_thumb

While he didn’t get much air time in the second round of the Masters, thanks to his opening-round 80, the eternally fashion-forward Rickie Fowler wore some, well, fashion-forward pants.

What do you think?

Michael Greller’s comments on Spieth’s Masters final round

SpiethMasters

If you didn’t catch Michael Greller’s post on his Facebook page following his employer’s (Jordan Spieth) Masters disaster, DavePelz4 kicked off a thread with Greller’s words, opening the floor for WRXers takes on what Greller had to say. Well worth a read, and you’ll want to see the forum chatter related to Greller’s post and Spieth’s 12th-hole horrorshow.

Greller, in part, wrote:

“The 2016 Masters stung … But don’t feel sorry or sad for us. We won’t get stuck in this moment, nor should you. We will work harder, fight harder and be better for it. We will bounce back as we have done many times….At the end of the day, golf is a sport. I am especially thankful to have an unconditionally loving wife Ellie Greller, family and friends who treat us the exact same regardless of wins and losses. This isn’t life and death stuff. There are far greater struggles that exist in this world than not winning The Masters.”  

Let us know what you think in the thread.

      Yep, because the caddie decided FOR the best player in the world what shot he should feel most comfortable with. OK bud.

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.”
