How many brands are in your bag?
A thread from 2012 that’s gathered steam recently, adsc4s kicked off the thread, which is now at 55 pages, with the simple question “How many brands are in your bag?” Most WRXers, as you might expect, have a few brands among their roster of weapons. It’s interesting to see who’s playing what, check it out.
Equipment that’s changed your life?
User fairwaysRoverated posed perhaps the most significant question in the world of golf equipment: Have you made an equipment purchase that has changed your (golf life)? He cites his purchase of the counter-balanced putter saved his golf game. He also cites a couple of other purchases, which have had redemptive value.
What about you, any life-changing equipment purchases?
The Tour’s longest hitter?
Statistically speaking, Dustin Johnson was the PGA Tour’s longest hitter in 2014-2015. DJ averaged 317.7 yards per tee shot last year. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean Johnson has the most in reserve. The real question golfjoe is posing is, ripping drive full throttle on the range, with little consideration for finding fairways, who’s the longest? The answer is likely, “Who knows/anyone in the top 10 in driving distance could be,” but that doesn’t get in the way of a great discussion.
Asking the tough questions: Thoughts on beards on Tour?
Our forum members are never afraid to tackle the real issues in golf. It’s in this spirit that Forged4Ever (who, full disclosure, has a beard himself) put together a poll inspired by the recent boom in whiskers in golf’s professional circuit.
Here’s the poll
What Are Your Thoughts on Beards on Tour?
- Yes, as long as they are neatly groomed they are fine…
- Absolutely Not, as they take away from the dignity of this great Game…
- Much like the clubs in another’s bag or the clothes on their back, I could care less…
- The Thicker and Nastier the Better…..
