How do you know you're a GOLFWRXer ??

[ago33]

You buy a tour issue version of the same club you have because it’s tour issued

[realitycheck]

When you switch what brand of bag you're carrying (since you have multiple brands in the basement), based on who won the tournament or which star player played well that week. LOL

[Mych]

When you buy the "Master's edition" grips, then regrip 2 weeks later because you hate the way green and yellow grips look.

[jwb10]

You guys are twisted. How about having 5 of the same shirt 'cause you like the color ? :pimp:

[HackerDave]

When your driver gets damaged and it kind of excites you because now you get to buy a new driver!!

But you buy the same head because of how much you've already invested in shafts and adapters. (true story, about 6 months ago for a me)

 

When you are researching new drivers but also looking to replace the head that was just damaged because....well, because!!

[RobYakes]

When you suggest summer vacation ideas and your lady chimes back, "what courses do you want to play now?"

 

When you try to explain to your lady why you have 3-5 putters and she snarks, "It's not the club, it's the operator" / "you can only play with one at a time" / "lessons might actually be cheaper"

 

When you try to convince yourself that jumping from Mizzy's Hot Metals to MPs within a year "really isn't that big of a deal, I'm planning for the future"

 

When you search the WTBs to give your lady an excuse when your new club comes (knowing full well you're never going to sell your previous club)

 

When you debate putting together a second bag only so you can justify having 2 sets of irons (but have no excuse for a 2nd bag)

 

When you get excited on the 15th and 1st of each month to see your handicap update so you can immediately update your GolfWRX profile

[WidespreadPanic]

If you sell all of your golf clubs you could buy a sportscar. But instead, you keep your clubs, buy a sportscar, and then drive it to the golf store.

[Mych]

You keep mental note of other people's pictures/posts and how you can use them to win arguments with your wife. "See, he has more junk in his garage than I do...", "See, the simulator and putting green don't take up the whole room...", "See, my putter collection isn't nearly as bad as his. BTW, look at the nice storage racks he has on his wall."

 

Or, simply if you have ever referred to GolfWRX to provide any justification during an argument with the wife.

[tatertot]

You walk into your local golf store, pick up a used putter, think "this the one", look at the price tag, and realize it's a putter you traded in just over a month ago. (True story.)

Ripping plastic off clubs on the first tee.

Yup, even worse, you get excited about the handicap update even though you haven't PLAYED in 2 months..... :slow_en: :to_become_senile:

People talk about equipment and you can diagnose their swing and set up problems. Without ever seeing them swing, naturally.

Ripping plastic off clubs on the first tee.

 

and then adding lead tape

[Mych]

When you wake up and are angry that no one has posted in this thread since yesterday afternoon.

[Micrys2]

When your wife asks you five times in a week if that long skinny box you received today was that club you told her yesterday was going to be the one that fixes your swing.

[hurricanes7]

the boxes are killing us

[Mych]

the boxes are killing us

I feel like I should order a new shower rod every few weeks just so that I don't get the "another golf club?" look every time.

[hurricanes7]

WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE

1. rake

2. shovel

3. mop for wife

4. leaf blower

5. anything else?

I’m picky and don’t like wrinkles in my neck ties. I can either order them like this or quit working. Wife can decide.

SHIP TO WORK! I'm in the process of a divorce so my happy marriage comments should be taken with a grain of salt, but never once did I hear " 'eye roll' WHAT? Don't you have enough clubs!" The constant influx of clubs was well managed. They came to work. Outside of a crazy new color they just add to the general "golf club noise". Some times I dislike that CPO almost never provides the original OEM matching headcover, but I always appreciate the generic. Two reasons, no one is in a hurry to swipe your rare and valuable driver when it has a CPO generic headcover on it. Secondly, it makes all clubs look the same. You want to conceal that new bright green driver head? Have a stable of CPO generic headcovers. If she can tell the difference between 77 and 78, you're in trouble anyways. Mine used to look for unique. Any new color scheme was a dead giveaway.

 

Generic red CPO headcovers are worth FAR more than the original unique OEM headcovers. I used to put all of my brand new clubs into them too. Original matching headcovers go into my discreet golf bunker. Which location was guarded more than the nuclear suitcase codes.

Nice! When I re-hook up, I'm going to borrow that one. Lol. I was pretty partial to number 3 too, but once you've been beat with a mop it doesn't seem like quite the same idea. Good stuff thiugh

My favorite so far. Looking forward to April Fools Day a little but more this year now.

When you just got a professional fitting and go home and start browsing BST for the shafts you were fit for (true story)

[jwb10]

Yesterday, plastic bag arrives from Fed EX...."More golf pants ?".. "No, dear"... "It looks and feels like golf pants".."No, it really isn't "... "Well, then, what is it ?"..."IDN, I think it's a couple of FJ golf shirts, great deal ! "... "Musta' been because you only have 86 in the closet.." :air_kiss: :air_kiss:

[11forgedblades]

You buy a new driver and then start buying shafts looking for the perfect combination only to realize the stock shaft was actually the best fit....

[JohnKHawk]

You somehow can't pass up the opportunity to reply with:

1) Make sure to go get fit

2) Spend money on some lessons - not new clubs

3) search is your friend

[beaney]

You buy a club that you hit well, then spend the following days/hours searching online reviews to make sure that it’s good..........even though you hit it well!

[midwayj]

You try most of the high end, stiffest tip driver shafts but still complain the ball "balloons," and it's because you still haven't found the right shaft.

[TimBuma]

You sell something before you even hit it.

[hybrid25]

You think a Scotty Cameron putter will shave Strokes off your game.
