In our forums, one user (and a new golfer to boot) has asked a surprisingly provocative question: namely, ‘what’s your favorite golf saying.’ The question inspired answers both expected and unpredictable.

@hankj asked:

I’m new to golf this summer, and one unexpected delight has been all the funny/pithy/telling/wise old saws (aka sayings) one hears on the course and around the clubhouse.

My current favorite:

It’s a long walk from the driving range to the first tee.

Ain’t that the truth!

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own favorite aphorisms. 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.

JimmyC59: “Regarding my own shots: ‘That’s a good miss’ and ‘Well, it’s not horrible.’
For golfers who get angry on the course. ‘You’re not good enough to get so mad!’”
Dabetic: “‘Scorecard doesn’t care’ re bad/ugly shots working out…doesn’t matter how you get it done.”
Cellis: “Was playing a pretty tight course struggling with driver and was ready to shut it down for the day. Older gentleman I got paired with said, ‘Young man, just let the big dog eat, what is the worst that can happen, hit another ball?’ Helped me swing a lot more freely on the tee and become more successful not only that day but days on.”
sheepdawg: “They call it golf because s**t and f**k were already taken.”

Is the Cobra OPTM Max K driver a fairway finder?

GolfWRX’s Resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson put Cobra’s high MOI driver to see how many fairways he can hit on the front 9 of his home course.

Check out the result below.

More about the Cobra OPTM Max-K driver:

The Cobra OPTM Max-K Driver is a highly forgiving golf driver designed for players who want maximum stability, accuracy, and consistency off the tee. Featuring Cobra’s highest moment of inertia (MOI) ever, the Max-K uses an oversized 460cc head, a low-and-back center of gravity, and an 11-gram rear weight to reduce twisting on off-center strikes and help keep shots straighter.

Cobra also incorporates its H.O.T. Face technology to maintain ball speed across a larger area of the clubface, while the FutureFit33 adjustable hosel provides 33 loft and lie settings for personalized ball-flight tuning.

The driver is aimed primarily at mid- to high-handicap golfers and players seeking greater forgiveness, high launch, and tighter shot dispersion rather than maximum workability.

Most memorable shots on tour – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, one user has shared and asked others to chime in with their favorite shots in the history of the PGA Tour. As one can imagine, the answers are as varied and unpredictable as the results produced during a chaotic Sunday finish.

@JoeSchmoe kicked things off by asking:

“1. Tom Watson’s chip-in from the rough at 17. US Open at Pebble in 1982. He was my hero already, that shot made him a superhero.

“2. Corey Pavin’s 2nd shot on hole 18, at Shinnecock also a US Open. 200+ yds out, needing to hold off Greg Norman. You could see it on his face, that shot had won the tournament.

“3. Bubba Watson’s shot from the trees at hole 10 in the playoff at the Masters in 2012. I don’t think even he could believe he did that.”

How about yours?

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own favorite memories. 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.

cdnglf: “Be the right club….today!”
luke1333: “I must be from a younger generation than some of the others but the two that I won’t forget is Tiger’s 6 iron at the 2000 RBC Heritage out of the bunker and over the water on 18 to seal a win and then Rory’s 3 wood at the 2016 Irish open, similar shot, par 5 18th over water to win as well. Rory from the Masters last year too with the huge hooking shot on 15 is up there as well although not quite as impressive as the first two to me!”
Shilgy: “A couple of my most memorable have not been mentioned….and both involve Tiger. Although the fact that I cannot positively identify the year on one of them probably deletes it from memorability.#1 Young Tiger ay the, what is now, AT&T proam…. I think it was 1998 the first year he played it. On a par 5 he had 270 for his second and I remember Feherty in amazement saying “he has an iron out, can’t believe he’s laying up.” Tiger rips a high cut 2 iron that lands almost pin high and stops like a wedge about 20ft from the pin. Feherty, for once, sis momentarily speechless. He then says something along the lines of he’s going to have to reser his thoughts on what’s possible.#2 May have been in one of the videos above but his shot from the fairway bunker…over trees, from a lie where he could barely get his footing. IIRC an iron from a bunker, terrible stance, high cut over trees. I think it was on 9 or 18.They were not the most important shots ever hit but they are two of my most memorable from a pure amazing golf shot standpoint.”
