Hypotheticals
A question as old as golf: How would a pro fair at your home course? Anyone that plays the same course over and over again has pondered the same question, and in this thread, GolfWRX members discuss the answer as it applies to their home tracks.
How’s your state pride?
In this thread, golfers argue over the question: What’s the best golfing state in America? Of course, some say that “drunken” is the best state to play, while others make valid points about course designs, course conditions and weather in various states.
If you like traveling the country and playing different golf courses, this is quite an entertaining and informed conversation.
Industry rumors
Who doesn’t love a good rumor mill? In this thread, golfer discuss whispers about new equipment releases from various companies. If you want to stay “in the know,” and don’t mind sifting through a few falsities, this is a fun thread to keep an eye on.
Want more rumors? Here’s one that Tiger Woods dumped swing coach Chris Como — but you might want to take this one with a grain of salt.
Speaking of Tiger…
Did you hear he switched driver shafts, into a Matrik TP7HDe? Did you think the forums would miss an equipment change from the most popular golfer on the planet?
If you’re behind, catch up on the latest buzz around Tiger’s shaft change. Through two rounds at his home tournament, the Quicken Loans National, he’s 8-under currently sitting T3.

Not to nitpick, but it’s a Matrix TP7HDe….
Don’t know what the “e” means other than it raises the price to $1000….
