Here’s a peek behind the curtain into golf’s sanctuary.
Loving Patrick Reed…
Brash, occasionally arrogant, outbursts of profanity and some questionable episodes in his past, Patrick Reed is a divisive figure in the world of golf. But on the heels of his win at The Barclays, a lot of GolfWRXers are finding a lot to love in the Sunday red and black-wearing Texan. Scooterboy59 started a thread dedicated to Reed appreciation, in fact.
Clubs everyone loves (but you)
Good topic, this one. We all know the sexy makes and models everyone seems to love. Mizuno MP 33s, anything Miura, Circle Ts, the Ping G30, etc. This phenomenon struck user sfdoddsy in relation to a particular set of irons he demoed that forums (this and others) seem to love. So he started the thread detailing his experience and asked if anyone else had experienced something similar.
See the thread for a rundown of what WRXers weren’t feeling the love for.
Does anybody still wear khaki?
In a world of white pants (and shorts) everywhere (thanks, PGA Tour), user Scooter McGavin asks: “Does anybody still wear khaki pants or shorts?” And further, McGavin wonders, what does one pair them with? (Answer: Khaki is a neutral color…so anything that isn’t so close in color it clashes). If you’ve had a similar sartorial conundrum, you’ll want to check out this thread.
Debate the merits of khaki here.
Praising the open stance…
The “Instruction & Academy” forum doesn’t get a lot of run in FTF, so here’s a thread that gives you a taste of the sort of discussion and debate that goes on among the swing technicians there.
In this thread, user skyking relates how he’s seen a dramatic improvement in his ballstriking simply by opening his stance. He asks other WRXers if they’ve ever seen similar results and questions what the specific reason for improvement might be.
To see what the amatuer and professional swing theorists who frequent the forum said, check out the thread.

Some truly superb stuff floating around in the Classified forum, per usual. Just a couple of examples of the drool-inducing hardware that’s up for sale.
This limited run Piretti Copper putter.
And this Scotty Cameron Circle T, reportedly made for Long John himself!
