WRX Forum Buzzz
FTF Driver Showdown: GBB Epic Sub Zero, M1, M2 and LTD Pro
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.
Trackman Showdown: GBB Epic Sub Zero, M1, M2 and LTD Pro Drivers
WRXer TollBros set up an exceedingly thorough five-man test of the hottest drivers on the market, painstakingly analyzing looks, sound/feel, shot pattern/dispersion and performance. A truly exceptional post, and certainly in a must read if you’re in the market for a new driver this year. See the thread.
Stenson’s surprising new weapon
Henrik Stenson parted ways (at least temporarily) with his life-saving/money-making Callaway Diablo 3 wood. In its stead: the Iceman dropped a Callaway GBB Epic in the bag. Not surprisingly, WRXers had much to say about one of the most significant fairway wood change in recent golf history. See the thread.
Your first set of clubs?
Ah, a stroll down Memory Lane. Chazb asks, “What was your first set of clubs?” Predictably, the responses are great and the heady brew of nostalgia flows freely. Sam Snead Signatures, boxed sets from Sears… just an awesome look at where it all began for our community of equipment enthusiasts (image c/o EmperorPenguin). See the thread.
The WRXiest bag
If “WRXiest” as an adjective isn’t a thing, it darn well should be. Our resident statistician, Richie Hunt, is actually the author of this thread to determine the WRXiest possible bag setup. Rich’s suggestions include the venerable Callaway Steelhead and a Byron Morgan putter. To see what the rest of the community thinks, check out the thread.
The coolest golfers come from this state…
Plenty of room for debate, here. North Butte kicks off this thread by asking which state the coolest (professional) golfers come from. His suggestion? Texas, thanks to the likes of Hogan, Nelson, Trevino, Crenshaw, Kite, Jimmy Demaret and Jackie Burke. As a Pennsylvanian, I’m obligated to remind everyone that the King was from the Keystone state. Anyway, see the thread for plenty of back-and-forth.

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

As Costco has proved with it’s Kirkland ball, getting good playing golf gear does not have to cost an arm and a leg…maybe people will start looking into some of the companies that offer very playable equipment at very reasonable prices…one for sure is Golfworks…..think about it you can pay $900 for a custom fit set of irons from the big boys or maybe less then $400 for a set of custom fit irons from a company like GolfWorks and in 3 years they will both be worth the same about $25 dollars….
