Equipment
GolfWRX is going to the PGA Merchandise Show
We want to hear from you… What do you want to see? We will be live at the PGA Merchandise Show next week!!!
GolfWRX will have a fully loaded team of equipment gearheads covering all aspects of the 2013 PGA Merchandise Show. We will be at Demo Day taking pics and video interviews. Then on Thursday and Friday we will attempt to do coverage that has never been seen before.
We will try to cover the big guys but most importantly we will try to cover all the smaller companies as well. We have already had a lot of requests for small club companies. There is also interest in new technologies in gadgets and apps for golf. Instructional devices that integrate into your electronic devices. So we will be on it.
We begin to assemble Monday and will be reporting through the week into Saturday. Photos will added daily and video interviews as fast as we can get them up. We will have a full team there… Richard (easyyy), Ryan (GxGolfer), Aaron (swa), Todd (Asleep), Zach (KascoPro), Zak the Editorial Manager, Greg (pga43), Rob (hipcheck), Rob (ROBOPTI) is in on special assignment LOL…. Wait till you see that. In short we will be armed with video, cameras, and keyboards to give you what you deserve and expect. The best.
If you want us to cover anything please ask in here. We might not have thought of it unless you ask us. WHAT DO YOU WANT? We want to hear from you.

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.
“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals who all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, @raw10628 has a L.A.B. DF3 putter and Masters putter cover up for grabs.
From the listing: “Some great items here today, time to thin out and make room for next set of gear. All prices include shipping.
LAB DF3 Purple 33.5” 68° lie with TPT – $725. LAB Masters release DF3 cover – $150.”

If possible for you guys, I’d be very interested to see some of the new portable launch monitors this year has to offer. I’ve also been curious about new SCOR wedges.
I’d love to get the chance to see the merchandise show some day, you guys enjoy.
Thank y’all

*. Love to see some affordable new launch monitors for the home that actually work.,,, any of the tech stuff actually.
* Gadgets for teaching.
*. Pics of any concept stuff
* clic gears new cart/bag..I’d love to see that and offer myself up as a test subject for this and any other free gear…its the least I could do
In fact what if u hook up an ear piece , a head cam, etc. On each of you and live stream your visit…maybe we could steer you around a bit. Just a thought.
Have a great time guys
Best,
Adam

Danny,
I have interest in that Titleist driving iron too (712u).
I reached out to Titleist via Twitter and said they still don’t have a date to release that product to the public, still testing with their pros.

Hey Guys,
I would love to hear about the latest golf shoes available. I’ve recently had foot issues and would like to know about any new shoes that provide better support and cushioning.
Also, the latest golf swing trainer devices that help with improving your golf swing.
Cheers and look forward to your coverage.

Dear WRX
I hope you find at the NIKE store an addition to the NIKE GPS running watch integrated for gps golf. It seems a logical progression for this to happen. Can you please keep an eye out for this…any news would be gratefully accepted!
Cheers & happy reviewing!
