Today’s Forum Thread of the Day comes from Other Barry who asks WRXers what their best and worst purchases of 2019 were. While clubs ruled the best purchase category for most members, Other Barry highlighted New Balance’s Striker shoes as his best buy. Our members discuss the highs and lows of their 2019 in the market.
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.
- texcrom: “Best purchase – Scotty Cameron T22 Newport – I’m gaming it, making a ton of putts, and as importantly my misses are lagged close for easy tap ins. Spent the last ten years looking for my putting to return, and finally found it. Worst purchase – Titleist T100’s – Because it led to the trade of my 718 AP2’s which I had gamed for two years. Now thru a process of multiple transactions, I have a set of Mizuno MP20 MMC’s that I don’t believe are keepers and a set of P790’s which I have played for 27 holes. Hit 620 CB’s and may make this move next.”
- doctormizuno: “Can I have a tie for first. Cobra F9 Driver. Excellent distance. Hit 13 of 14 fairways today. Bettinardi BB1 putter. Worst: Callaway Rogue 3 wood. I just couldn’t get it to work for me.”
- MitchellGolfing: “Best – Mizuno MP-H4 irons. They aren’t going anywhere until the faces are worn smooth. Worst-TaylorMade M1 440. In the right player’s hands, I’m sure it’s a beast, I just was not consistent enough with it.”
- ian-500: “Best: Taylormade Original One mini driver. Worst: Every other driver I’ve bought this year.”
- Beachbum08247: “Best has been my p790 irons. Love the feel and performance. They have really been a step up over my old Callaway irons from last season. Worst was the Srixon u65 driving iron I started the season with. Got no feedback from contact and the performance was poor. Sold that thing real quick.”
