How about some tour reps talking about whacky setups or irregularities? Inside the ropes guys do caddy corner, caddies always have interesting stories and thoughts. Really liked the witb interview with the forum member. Nerds love fellow nerds. More please! Great job so far. Great concept and good ideas in this thread. Thank you!!!

[swizbeatz]

I want to hear a podcast featuring member Richard (forged4ever) and nikegal. How to keep a relationship and love for golf!!

 

 

Second this idea. So far so good.

[LansingMI]

Equipment only based episodes. The build a cheap bag one was great, so was JR's. Something along the Callaway Fitting Room episodes. Almost nobody wants a "small bucket" 2 minute podcast either, whats the point. You guys are doing great though and keep them coming.

[onafriday]

I’ve listened to just about all of them so far. I’m a commuter / pod enthusiast.

 

My take- the ‘Two guys talking golf’ episodes are great. It’s the forums delivered audibly. Great job Andrew and Knudson. This could be a No Laying Up offshoot in terms of tone, candor, and humor. I’ll keep listening to these.

 

The 19th hole with Michael Williams is soft serve vanilla. Think, like, Shane Bacon light. I probably won’t keep listening these.

We totally appreciate all the feedback and listens! We are working on setting up more member interviews, they are a lot of fun. We hear you on keeping a lot talk about equipment and should have a lot of that to go over with the PGA show next week!

I have to agree with you on the 19th Hole. Maybe it’s aimed at an older demographic, but from the podcast artwork to the intro music to the pace of the podcast, it loses your attention. Makes me sleepy. I’ve listened to most of the 19th Hole podcasts, and to me it seems that the host just doesn’t know about his guests enough to ask them the best questions. I know it’s early in the podcast and not that it’s bad, I’m just looking for more. I would really like to hear Zach Kozuchowski host it.

How about some "Undercover Tour Pro" segments similar to the Golf Digest articles. I would love to hear some stories (with names and identities redacted of course) of things that happen out there. Would make for great banter and guessing who the players were.

Check out our new podcasts with Scotty Cameron, Bob Vokey and Ping's Marty Jertson at the 2018 PGA Show. They were really fun to record, and we're excited to share them with you.

As always, any feedback and ideas for future shows are welcome.

[Night train]

The Marty Jertson interview was VERY good. A nice look inside a very good player who knows a LOT about golf equipment design.

[bladehunter]

How about somebody interesting like Mike Taylor and the Artisan crew ?

Just want to thank you guys again for all the feedback and ideas. This week, we've started up what we think will be a recurring Forum Member WITB segment. For the first edition, we had J13 on the podcast. We went super in depth on his clubs, testing philosophies, thoughts on fitting and way more.

 

Here's the link where you can find the podcast: http://www.golfwrx.c...d-club-testing/

 

As always, we appreciate any feedback. Hope you enjoy listening.

 

Not sure who that guy is but it's my favorite podcast to date :busted_cop: :taunt:

 

Keep up the good work guys can't wait to hear more.

[BDoubleG]

Assuming the Two Guys continues (and I really hope it does), I'd love to see GolfWRX have two separate podcasts. i'll be honest - I'm not huge on the 19th hole, but I love Two Guys. Moe than once,I've noticed a new update, only to be disappointed that it's not a Two Guys podcast.

[wldchld22]

I tried the podcasts before and then I listened to the 2 guys interview with Scotty Cameron.

 

It was fantastic.

 

Really really good. Will listen to a bunch more now of the 2guys. No offense, but the other version wasn't my speed. Keep em short too!

19th hole sounds like golf from 20 years ago. I can't listen either. Very outdated.

[cbole22]

How about a podcast on alternative balls like Vice, Cut, Kirkland and Is it worth buying a name brand ball anymore?

Or perhaps a shaft interview with Robin Arthur.

Thanks

[linkerpan]

I think both podcasts have their audience. Keep both and add more

[atursky]

Thanks again for the continued feedback and support, it really means a lot.

 

In case you missed it, we had an awesome talk with Fuji's tour rep Marshall Thompson and vice president Alex Dee about Fuji shafts and golf shafts in general. I learned a lot myself about shaft making and fitting, and hope you guys enjoy it.

 

Here's the link:

 

Keep the ideas coming also. I promise we're reading all of your replies.

Knudson finally got an iron fitting. See what irons he got fit into... http://www.golfwrx.com/498210/tg2-what-irons-did-knudson-finally-get-fit-into/

I just listened to it. The fitter clearly knows what he's doing with the selection of irons. I'm not shocked by the winning irons ;)

[knudson81]

Our audio is getting better... except for yesterday. Some great Masters equipment news from Chris Trott, who is on the TaylorMade tour truck.

We enjoyed being a part of the show and giving you guys an inside look at Fujikura's engineering and Tour support. Keep up the good work on the shows guys, we're continuing to listen each episode. We think you hit your peak with the interview with us, but we're biased :)

Listening to Knudson talk about tinkering with clubs, it was like he was peering into my soul (lol) It was a great and (seemingly) well thought out explanation. That nerdy Word not allowed gear talk is exactly what I want in a golf podcast. Imossible to go too in depth when discussing clubs IMO

Hahaha, I appreciate the compliment! I (unfortunately?) have many more stories about botched club building and also some about some successes, just like many on the site!

I agree we need more of that kind of topic. That was my favorite episode so far.

[hodges_atx]

Count one more for the club tinkering topics. I mentioned on your Instagram that the new sode made me want to further Frankenstein my driving iron. It also convinced me to try my hand at hotmelting.

 

Good stuff guys, keep it up.

 

Also I loved hearing tursky go deep on sneakers.

[adam.byrne]

Absolutely loving the show, especially the guest interviews. Keep’em coming!!

[smalls]

Really dig the podcast, keep it up. I like the "inside the ropes" interviews. Aaron Dill was a good one, for sure.
