PGA Show BOOTH BABE Poll
Vote for your favorite!
We do our best to cover every aspect of the PGA Merchandise Show. And this is the time of the year when we debut the original GolfWRX PGA Merchandise Show BOOTH BABE POLL.
During our coverage, we find the best of show and compile them for our readers to place their votes and pick the best of the best “Booth Babe.”
I know… it’s a golf show. You’re right. But that being said, we are asked by our readers to continue the tradition. Last year, we were so busy we didn’t have many to choose from. But this year we selected 22 of our favorite Booth Babes for you to choose from.
If you have no desire to see the booth babe contest and want to go directly to our PGA Merchandise Show coverage, click HERE to see the thousands of photos we snapped.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
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.
