Kyle Berkshire signs with Cobra/Puma – GolfWRXers react
In our forums, our members have been reacting to the news that World Long Drive Champion Kyle Berkshire is now a Cobra/Puma athlete. Berkshire was previously a Callaway staffer and now looks set to use Cobra’s RadSpeed driver for the foreseeable future.
Speaking on signing with Cobra/Puma, Berkshire revealed his excitement and re-emphasized his ambition to make an impact in the professional game. (He even learned Bryson DeChambeau’s putting technique very effectively recently)
“Excited to announce I’m officially a part of the Cobra and Puma family! Looking forward to being with this team as I pursue my goals in both long drive and pro golf.”

Here are a few posts from our members reacting to the news, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- PureStrikes54: “Guy has more social media followers than almost anyone in the entire OWGR top 25, youtube channel already one of the largest in golf and growing, Bryson constantly doing collaborations, and tons of PGA tour swing coaches analyzing his move on their socials as well. Great move by Cobra/Puma. If they can flip even a small percentage of Callaway/Taylormade loyalists or make inroads with the younger generation that recently started playing, the deal pays for itself in spades.”
- PixlPutterman: “He shot +2 on an 8200 yard course with a lip out on 18. Dudes a stud.”
- RobotDoctor: “Will Kyle Berkshire make it to the PGA Tour and, if so survive? Hard to tell. The state of his current game, I say no. However, I have seen him improve quite a bit in the past year while he has been attempting to improve. His putting is definitely better since working with Bryson. Berkshire is still a little wild with his driver at times, but he has great game. I am pulling for him to make it and succeed on the PGA Tour. He seems like a terrific person.”

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.
