Blade aesthetics showdown: Rors Proto vs. Titleist 718
Pointless debate? Perhaps. But an entertaining one nevertheless! Tsecor started a thread to discuss the visual merits of two of the most drooled-over recent blade released: the TaylorMade Rory McIlroy “Rors Proto irons” or the Titleist 718 irons.
…but how long will blades be on the market?
From one blade-related discussion to another. How long will the traditional forged iron be on the market, golfpros1 wonders. This has been a popular discussion in the world of golf equipment in recent decades, so it’s fitting to see the discussion in FTF.
What putter are you in love with?
No club in the bag elicits such strong emotions and sentimental attachments as the putter. So it’s fitting to ask, as Tsecor does, what putter are you in love with, and why? And shoutout to the aforementioned WRXer for the unprecedented achievement of having two threads included in one edition of FTF.
