How do you know you're a GOLFWRXer ??

[jimsmithleeds]

When the best holiday you've ever spent with your wife is the one early in the relationship when you took the golf clubs and she caddied for you (when she was still trying to impress you)

When you have to have a new Bettinardi putter every year, just because you have to

When you're completely happy with your Titleist 917 driver, swear never to change, then order an M3

When you have to have a brand new bag for the start of every season, so get it at Xmas, and by March it's been swapped out for a different one before the season has even begun

When one minute it's essential that your golf bag matches the brand of Clubs you have, but the next minute it's essential that you have a none club branded bag, like Sun Mountain, and this cycle repeats 4 times a season, all requiring brand new bags each time

When you run out of room to store all your Clubs and have to start storing them in your sons bedroom

When you're really relieved that your wife has popped out of the house when you return with yet another new Club so she can't kick your *$$

When you have 16 pairs of golf shoes

 

 

Will someone please take me away LOL.......

[JStang]

When you buy 3 putters within a week without test driving any of them. Who in the world would do that :dntknw:

[Britboy]

This thread is gold-dust.

 

When you buy a club on eBay and then list it before it's arrived using the previous sellers pictures because you've already bought something to improve on it

 

When the guys in the post (mail) room at work stop making comments about the number of long rectangular boxes that keep arriving for you

 

When it's easier to remember any number that has (MP) 14, 33, 87, 68 in it

 

When someone on the tee asks you if that's a new driver and you reply 'No I've had it 3 weeks' (and then hit it 212yds after explaining how your were custom fitted into a Tensei Orange TX flex)

[Britboy]

Sorry a couple more - On eBay you're 'Watching' 15 driver heads, 36 shafts and 15 adaptors having typed 'Tour issue' and 'Tour Van' into the search box

 

You think the only reason Dustin Johnson hits it further than you is because he plays on fairways that are firm and fast

Don't forget the wind, he has a 15mph tailwind. Always.

 

 

[ssfranny]

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

 

When you clean out your local Home Depot for balls that are selling for .98 a dozen

[huskerguy18]

You sign up for a secret Santa and ask for an iron that is missing from your current set (left it at the range like an idiot, no one turned it in.) Get it and then proceed to purchase a brand new iron set. ✋

[Lemonde]

When you have 4 Ebay addresses to ship to, and 2 of them aren't in the country you live in.

 

And you only visit only a couple of times a year but ship something golf related every time anyways.

 

And for one location your brother in law is your pimp to get the clubs for you, and because he crosses so frequently with your gear the border guards just waive him on and don't ask to declare anymore.

 

And you have mastered the art of minimizing shipping costs and duties across the border due to trial and error (Thank you USPS, you are a godsend) in case you feel compelled to ship something direct.

 

And everytime a guy member of your family sees a UPS or Fedex truck they take a picture and text it to you.

 

When your OCD becomes reverse OCD => you feel compelled to have your bag, irons and driver all match to the same brand, and contemplate switching out the wedges because the irons are crhome shiny and now you need "shiny" and not "matte chrome" wedges to match, only to then see a picture of a brand new innovative club (the hi toe from TM) that you have to buy and put in the bag as soon as it is released and all of a sudden your wedge OCD disappears because the Hi Toe wedge colour is bronze and the irons are shiny which is somehow OK because the wedge stands out as a totally different colour but matte chrome wedges against shiny chrome irons continue to be a blasphemy (I have issues...). And yet it is perfectly OK to have a beat up 3 wood in the bag that you hit better than everything else and don't care about how it looks (I have more issues....)

[supashu]

You're embarrassed to open your trunk in front of other people because it looks like the used club section from the local golf shop inside.

[BearQ]

You know the raw weights of every 80 gram X flex shaft

[Mcgeeno]

When I first joined I remember reading a funny blurb from a guy who befriended the delivery driver to hide and deceive his wife on golf packages.

 

Another guy posted how he actually bought and sold a club before it physically arrived at his house haha.

 

Years later? I’ve had both those occur. I golf with a fedex driver who will drop clubs off at work for me and I traded a driver that I never hit. Literally ripped the address off it and forwarded it to the guy I traded it too haha.

 

Those are next level steps to get official membership to this site.

[Lemonde]

Too add to the above post of mine:

 

When you can't remember the last time you bought something in retail big box golf store!

 

 

True story. I once ordered a Nike Covert driver off the web and had it shipped to one of those multiple ebay addresses I have, in anticipation of the golf trip down there. In horror three days before we were to leave, I was notified that the value of the club exceeded the OEM policy on drop shipping at the door of the house. Coles notes, it was stuck in the abyss of a Fedex processing facility about 40 miles away from my destination. So naturally I drove to the processing facility, some familiar members in toe, which was slightly out of the way of the destination. It was pouring rain, 3AM, and I had called ahead thanks to google to let them know I was coming and hopefully their supervisor would let me in. Of course these places have security but I got through the turnstile after some convincing and the fact that I was from Canada and this was my only shot at getting the club to use for the trip. Lucky for me the supervisor was....a Canadian... and from my area no less but had left the country years ago for greener pastures in the US. There is nothing more bizarre than walking into a Fedex sorting facility at 3AM in the pouring rain to obtain a stupid golf club. Now that is a WRX'er!

[beaney]

When you base your purchasing decision not on how the club might actually play, but on its potential resale value in the likelihood that you have to sell it a week later!

[jwb10]

Wow, these keep getting better ^^^^^^^ :nyam: :cheesy: :cheesy:

[augustgolf]

You have a planned route to all local golf shops in the area and consider that a business trip to see if they have anything new,then do it again the next day just to make sure you didn’t miss anything.

You meant to say "every day" not "next day"

[jwb10]

I know I am because I've done most of this ^^^, and I have 75 golf shirts after giving away 30...and I pulled the trigger on 2 more today and a new Steelhead 3 wood.....winter=sickness ! :golfer: :mug: :smilie_cally: :help:

[A.Princey]

When you first start contemplating the use of a poker chip to mark your ball...

[Mych]

You think about using your drill for adjusting your driver settings because the OEM wrenches get exhausting after the 10th change of the day.

[Equipto]

You post an obscure WTB everyday, sometimes twice

[STPBMW]

When you are interested in a club but resist because it won't coordinate aesthetically with the rest of your bag. Only to buy the club the following day, and buy 13 new clubs to coordinate with it, and a bag, and head covers, the following week.

[cforselius]

When you still believe a shaft can give you a high launch with low spin.

 

AND you are looking for a anti-left shaft because of the dreadful snaphooks you hit which is completely the shafts fault, and not yours.

[Stonewalled]

Some people have the clapper to turn off the light switch while in bed.

 

A Golfwrxer has a wedge handy when its time for flicking the switch.

[GolfTurkey]

You need all your clubs bent 74 degrees flat to prevent a hook.

[hybrid25]

You think you are more important to the game of golf than the game of golf is to you.

If you think a 300 yard drive is better than sex.

 

It's pretty close ... depends on the sex

[jwb10]

When u get tracking info for a new 3 wood and check it every day hoping it'll arrive early. Even though there's 2 feet of snow on the ground. And you know you'll change the grip the day it arrives, before u even hit once. :jester:
