How do you know you're a GOLFWRXer ??

[JBent9610]

You constantly post, "use the search function, it's been posted before" and then get upset when people revive threads that have been dead for 7 years.

[SwingBlues]

This is a WRXer in his own words:

 

Once more the shaftoids of golfwrx will have a shaft that "has to be the ultimate fit for me, if it comes tipped 8 inches with XXX stiff or I can't play it" :)

 

Or as I remember the 125 rogue silver vs 110 rogue silver discussion "I cant swing the 110 after having played the 125. Different game, insane difference. Night and day!"

After around 500 swings each with my 125 msi compared to my old 110 I cant feel any difference at all.

 

And as always, I want to buy this one as well for no reason at all. Just enjoy buying golf stuff that wont affect my game :)

When you're playing your first round with a new club, and after every shot you're mentally crafting your club review post.

[Hjosh7_]

When your professor says "epoch" which sounds like Epic and your next thought is "What do drivers have to do with geology." Then you wish you were playing golf.

[Sean2]

I am not sure I am anymore. Last year my only golf purchase was some golf gloves and a golf bag, and the only reason I purchased a new bag was that my old one went kaput. I haven't purchased any golf shoes since 2016. I have had the same clubs for more than a year, and have no plans to make any changes.

You have spent over a thousand dollars on two brand new drivers, but read an old forum thread and find yourself digging through the used bins at the local shop hoping to find a 5 year old driver to tinker with.

[theWISEman]

When you contemplate adding a great review of one of your existing clubs to the relevant thread on WRX, because you’re about to sell it and think that it might just help to convince a potential buyer to bid on your item if they google it!

Chess not checkers...

You missed the whole message of the lecture, didn't

you? Hes talking about tees, not drivers.

[ruxpin23]

You know you are because:

- YOU PAY MORE FOR A SAND WEDGE THAT RUSTS

- U R CONVINCED THAT A NEW BALL CAN GO 20 YDS FURTHER AT THE SAME SWING SPEED

- YOU ANXIOUSLY AWAIT EVERY OEMs NEW RELEASE

- YOU HAVE 6 DRIVERS, ALL NEW, AND U R LOOKING AT NEW ONES

- YOU ENTER EVERY CONTEST OFFERED HOPING YOU'LL END UP IN CARLSBAD

-THOUGH YOU ONLY HIT IT 220, DOWNWIND, U THINK THE BALL IS GOING TOO FAR

Please add the ones I missed !!! :taunt: :wave: And yes, I am a GOLFWRXer, proudly

 

- i have 8 golf bags in my basement

- each golf bag is full of either a set of irons, brand new "backup" drivers because i hate adjustable hosels, or $400+ shafts

- you've hoarded gloves/balls/etc. when they were discontinued (nike tw glove and rzn balls for me, golf shoes)

- you have more pairs of golf shoes than regular shoes

- the guys at pgasuperstore know who you are (and know you as the pain in the a** guy who wants to shave 1/8" off their PW shaft)

- still struggle to break 90

[ruxpin23]

- you've spent hours tinkering with an MOI spreadsheet that Tom Wishon told you to download

- you know that Howard Jones and Stuart G. will respond to any club making question (with great wisdom i might add)

- you're actually considering dropping the $500 on an MOI auditor

- you want to convert your garage into a make shift "tour van"

- dream about turning your man cave into a golf simulator with a trackman

[ruxpin23]

When I rush around hiding the boxes that my new clubs came in before the wife gets home!!

 

lol, this is literally me... or i reroute to the local UPS store so i can pick up

[onafriday]

I cruise the putter rack wondering what Tom Slighter could do with these.... true story.

[Donno]

If you constantly post questions like

 

"I play 52/56/60 wedges....should I upgrade to 53/57/61 wedges?"

 

"I hit my 3W OK...but should I spend $4,000 on an entire new set to up my game?"

 

"Is it weird to upgrade to a slope laser finder to hone in on 20 yard pitches?"

 

"Will upgrading to a 12" diameter staff bag give me the confidence to reach a 620 yard par 5 in two?"

 

"If I hit vacation home roofs with my driver....should I change from my 10 degree driver to a 9.75 degree?"

 

"If I buy a Super Play Improvement guitar...will I play like Eric Clapton?"....WRX should start a musician's equipment blog.

[DoglegRight]

When you would rather buy new irons than have the lie adjusted on your current new set of irons because you can't handle the thought of marks from the lie machine.

 

Also, when your golf bag resides in your dining room.

Ugh, guilty

[Golf64]

I got a GOLFWRX decoder ring in the mail. Guess I am a WRXer?! ;)

You believe 2” of lead tape on the heal will get rid of that “power fade” you have creaming towards the tree line.

[averysdad]

If you chipped/dinged/scratched etc. your driver on course and had a new one purchased via eBay from your smartphone before you finished the round. Yep...I did this with an R15. Almost threw up when the damage happened.

[mmowen01]

These are all pretty funny. I just keep reading...yep that’s me....that too....that too

Classic humble brag..congrats

[1ironcharlie]

It takes you 12 holes to figure out you're losing to a guy with a ten year old driver sporting a stock shaft, an old set of Wilson staff irons and a putter without a super stroke on it

LMAO! I love dragging out my refurbished Staff FG-51s!

You KNOW you won't get to heaven due to the hundreds of lies to your wife asking "what are you doing on the computer?"

[Donno]

Thank you for this topic!

 

My favorite:

 

Player: "Is that OB?

 

Me: "Yes"

 

Player: "Should I drop from there or re-tee?"

 

Me: "Drop from there...it's OK...don't worry, you'll get used to your new fitted clubs".

 

Player: "WTF....Trackman said I was good to go!"

When you consider an uncontrollable slice your “power fade”.

When your current 3 wood is the best 3 wood you have ever gamed, but want to ditch it due to looks.

When you have extra money in paypal and can't decide what to buy....so you research everything until you find something in the price range of your paypal.
