This should be a lot of fun, not just for the Callaway experience but also to meet the other guys going. Being in Montreal I don't get to meet a ton of real life WRX guys. <br />

As others have said thanks to golfwrx for the opportunity, and thanks to callaway for accommodating a Canadian (not always eligible for stuff) a lefty (not always eligible for stuff) and some other generous stuff too with travel <br />

Well out of the 8 of us I can't yet identify the inevitable weird guy that everyone will secretly not like<br />

Oh crap. I think I heard a saying about that once

Have to echo Pure745, it's great to see that WRX selected guys who are a consistently positive addition to the site, instead of just a random draw. Very jealous of you all, but I hope you have a blast, and I'll be following with serious interest!
Look forward to following along with this trip and glad for those who got chosen. Have a great time fella's and don't worry about posting while there. Trust me there won't be much time <img src='http://www.golfwrx.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' /> Really curious to see how the gamers vs Epic stats turn out.
<br />
I just want to start by saying thank you to GolfWRX and Callaway for this incredible opportunity. I think I speak for all of us when I say we are beyond excited for this experience.<br />
<br />
If anyone has any questions for us or Callaway, just let us know! I'll do my best to provide updates and content during this jam-packed trip.<br />
<br />
<br />
i still want someone to legitimately answer my question on mixed materials...<br />
<br />
callaway nearly pioneered it - made if successful - went away from it - moved back to it (after another OEM made it popular again). why move away from it? why move back into it?<br />
<br />
<br />
Great question, I will also like to hear their explanation on that one.<br />
<br />
I am going to guess cost and materials. Price on carbon fiber production and material tech has dropped a lot in just the last 8 years or so.
<br />
Hello everyone! I just wanted to stop in and say thanks to GolfWRX and to Callaway for this once in a lifetime trip. I'm super excited.<br />
<br />
The eight of us have been communicating through PM for the last few weeks and everyone is pumped about the trip. We've exchanged phone numbers and email addresses in an effort to stay connected and provide everyone with updates without repetitious posting.<br />
<br />
I will do my best to provided objective, unbiased reporting on the process and the outcome.<br />

Congrats guys. Many good players got chosen for this one. Looking forward to see if Callaway can put something together that will replace current sticks.
You guys are going to have so much fun! I got to hit he new stuff yesterday! It is awesome and you get to try it with some awesome folks and way better weather than I did!
i said it in our group message to the other guys. <br />

I'm really looking forward to spending a few days with people that are as into golf as I am. I'm a total club junkie so this is going to be a really good time.
Congrats to the people going on the trip. I'm not jealous, that would be weak on my part. Stay thristy my friends...for knowledge, that is.<br />

I too offer my sincere thanks to Callaway and GolfWRX for this wonderful opportunity. You could have knocked me over with a very small feather when I was asked if I wanted to go. This will be my first golf trip. <br />
<br />
I started playing at 50 and am now 61. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would have an opportunity like this. I'm still a bit in a state of shock.

Well Deserved....nuff said!! Enjoy!!
Here is a list of excuses i will use when you see my unimpressive LM numbers with driver <br />
<br />
1) Arm fell asleep on flight<br />
2) Wind was in the face all day<br />
3) Going from the east coast to west coast you lose yards due to time zone<br />
4) My carry distances were in meters due to being Canadian<br />
5) Stop being a "hater" bro (not necessarily applicable, but will just write that)
