GolfWRX Opens New Online Store
Ever wish you had more GolfWRX in your life? We do too, which is why we’re re-launching a new online store with exclusive GolfWRX items that will take your on-course style to new heights.
The most popular item in the GolfWRX store has always been our famous poker chips, and the new models have been totally reimagined for 2014.
GolfWRX Tour Serialized Poker Chips: $3.00 each
[button color=”red” link=”http://outfitted.golfwrx.com/”]Enter the Store[/button]
“We’ve spared no cost in the manufacturing of these chips,” say Richard Audi, founder and president of GolfWRX. “We partnered with the leading gaming chip supplier in the world and went to the limit to design a very high-end series of poker chips,”
Each of the new chips is individually serialized and made in limited runs of 500 chips per model. They have same quality and feel that you’d expect from a world-class casino chip with mirrored gold and glitter accents that differentiate these chips from anything GolfWRX has offered in the past.
Also available in the store are two new styles of GolfWRX bag tags in black/white and red/gray/white. They measure 3 inches tall and 2.75 inches wide, and are made from a high-quality PVC rubber that keeps them lightweight and gentle on your bag and clubs.
“We’ve had many GolfWRX Members contact us and say, ‘I wish there was an easy way to recognize a GolfWRXer from across the range or on the course,'” Audi said. “We scour the professional tours every week, and we’re trying to offer limited runs of products that are of the highest quality to support our passionate membership.”
GolfWRX Rubber Bag Tag: $3.50 each

Along with the bag tags, the new store also includes new GolfWRX pins (1.5 inches wide) that are a more discreet way to show that you’re a GolfWRXer. The pins were inspired by the pins handed out to golfers as their credential for high-level tournaments.

“We went through some trouble making sure that the backing of the pins won’t stab you if you put it on your apparel, and that it won’t fall off your shirt, hat or golf bag,” Audi says.
GolfWRX Credential Pin: $3.00 each
[button color=”red” link=”http://outfitted.golfwrx.com/”]Enter the Store[/button]
The store also includes a new hat clip by Pitchfix with a removable GolfWRX ball marker. The clips are made from titanium-treated stainless steel that makes them resistant to scratches and rust, and they’re finished with a rubberized ABS rubber that makes sliding the ball marker off the clip a cinch.
Last, but not least is the famed GolfWRX divot tool/ball marker with our old school logo. The magnets on these are strong, so all you have to do is pick up your mark and toss it in your pocket and it’ll find the divot tool. The back side of the coin reads, “Better than most,” which we hope describes your putting that day.
GolfWRX Divot Tool/Ball Marker: $15.00 each

Best ‘forgiving’ wedges – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members have been discussing the most forgiving wedges on the market. WRXer ‘aaronpoling’ lays out his current setup and what he’s currently considering, saying:
“I am looking at getting new wedges, but looking for a forgiving wedge.
I currently play Ping G25 50°, MD4 54° and 58°. I used to play the CBX2 in the 50°, 54° and 58° and liked them a lot; but like any good dad, my son took them.
I am currently looking Callaway’s CB12 and Cleveland’s CBZ. Anyone have thoughts on these? Or recommendations of other wedges that I should check out?”
And our members have been weighing in with their thoughts and recommendations in response, with one brand coming out emphatically on top.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- boggyman: “CBZs are amazing wedges!”
- drewbens: “Agreed, the Cleveland CB wedges are great! Already had a CBX Full Face 2 54 and recently added a 50 and 58 (for well under $100 a piece). Was chipping so well last week that my brother-in-law asked if the wedges were legal. Definitely underrated wedges for those of us that are not scratch golfers.”
- BogeyTed: “Get Cleveland CBX/CBZ. Very underrated clubs.”

I built the worst fitting clubs ever – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members have been reacting to a WRXer who claims to have built the “worst fitting clubs ever.” ‘dlow206’ recounts his experience with plenty of insightful findings for where he can go better next time in a detailed post, saying:
“Here’s my story of building the worst fitting clubs ever (for me). And my findings of what a better fit is.
I am short in stature, as well as a very short wrist to floor of 30.5″. I went down a rabbit hole of wanting to try irons 1″ shorter of more than standard length. Given the shorter lengths, the swingweights would be super light unless I added back a ton of weight to the heads, but I don’t like adding an extreme amount of weight back to the heads, so I decided to compensate with heavier shafts (115 grams instead of 95). Played with this set for a while and was hitting all irons extremely poorly. Thin, fat, right, right, left. My swing didn’t deteriorate that much because I was hitting my driver well, woods well, etc.
Went back to my older set of irons, playing at standard length, and my iron play improved immediately. Since then, have been doing more testing, while paying more attention to different possible variables. What I have found is I actually prefer lighter total weight with relatively normal or slightly heavier swingweights. Did a recent fitting and found that 85 gram shafts were better for me than 95 grams with standard length and relatively standard swingweights.
Still trying to dial in a final iron shaft choice, so have a few contenders that I will be testing. Will be moving away from my current Steelfiber i95 S parallel to lighter and softer
- MMT 80 parallel R – worked pretty well in a limited number of swings at a fitting
- Fujikura Travil 85 R – the fitter liked the Axiom 95 R for me at Club Champion, but i didn’t love the effort required to swing them. If there was a 85 Axiom, that would probably have been a great fit. So i am going try a Travil 85 R which is japan only
- Steelfiber i80 CW R – i have been playing Steelfibers for a long time, so need to give one Steelfiber shaft a shot
Given I do club building work, I am going to build all of these shafts with the All-Fit universal iron adapters to pair with a Srixon 7 iron head for testing. With these adapters, there isn’t a swingweight issue because the amount of weight from drilling out is about equivalent to the universal adapter components.”
And our members have been sharing their reactions in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- Mikey_HACKilroy: “That length cut costs you a fair amount in swing points. I’d posit the length mattered more than the weight because a 115g shaft isn’t going to actually add enough back after cutting an inch off. Does it mean 115 would ultimately work? Hard to say. Maybe try a 1/2″ cut and add 2g to the head to compensate assuming the 7i is 37″ long. Maybe that will feel better. It translates to the same ~D2 you’re swinging at with the 95g shafts (estimated based on common weight, but you can weigh your parts on your own obviously).”
- Stuart_G: “Your process is good – keep at it and trust it.”

PXG Secret Weapon Version 2 mini driver lands on USGA conforming list – GolfWRXers react
A second version of PXG’s Secret Weapon has this week landed on the USGA’s conforming list, much to the interest of our members.
The original version of the brand’s Secret Weapon launched in January of 2025, with the second version also featuring four distinct weight ports in the head and coming with 13-degree of loft.
In our forums, our members have been assessing the new version and sharing their thoughts.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- DTorres: “Kinda looks like the face on the new one might be slightly deeper. Little bit more rounded leading edge.”
- snagy2000: “The current version is REALLY good, long…This one looks like they’re bringing some lightning tech to it…”
- SEP1006: “Agree with this, hard to tell from that angle but looks like the face may be the same as the Lightning. If that’s the case may have to give this a serious look. Absolutely love my 2wd which is also a 13* loft. But that Lightning Tour Mid Driver face is hot and forgiving.”

I ordered a bag tag. I thought the sipping of $5.50 was too steep. It could be shipped for under $1.

Hi there, I am in South Africa, can you ship items to me if I order on-line?
Rommel

Payment sent through PayPal. It’s been a week, when is my order shipping?
Patrick

Did you also pay for priority shipping?
Patrick

My order is showing “Balance due” even though I already received an email from PayPal showing that I’ve paid?

When I try to check out through PayPal, I get an error message that reads “Gateway Error: The totals of the cart item amounts do not match order amounts.” Something is messed up on your end as the order form does the multiplying, not me. Too bad, this is keeping me from buying. Nothing wrong from my end. Please fix. Its costing you missed sales.
Jack

tried it again this morning. You cannot order more than 1 poker chip at a time, as it gives you the “gateway” error message. So, if I want to order 6, I have to order them 1 at a time, incurring 6 separate shipping charges. That doesn’t seem right.

Is anyone from golfwrx.com monitoring comments about the problems people are having purchasing items on this website?
It’s a great idea to sell stuff on your website. But, if it’s broken and people can’t purchase, wouldn’t you make an attempt to answer questions about it on your own internet site?
Jack
Apr 27, 2014 at 9:03 pm
I get the feeling that this is not something that’s been monitored at all.

Went to buy the divot tool and it showed $21 to ship to Canada? Is that a mistake? You could ship a set of clubs to me for that! Can someone confirm please if $21 is the correct amount. Thanks!

Glad to see that WRX is finally starting to branch out a bit. Kinda surprised it took this long, but better late than never. I think there are many other items that should be made available for purchase with the WRX branded logo, and maybe those things are in the immediate future, if not, I think you guys are missing out on a great opportunity to further market the WRX brand. Just my .02

I just tried to checkout 4 poker chips and a divot tool but I live in Canada and the shipping charge is crazy! $21.00 USPS…come on guys.. It might cost half that to ship such a small package.
Dan
Apr 17, 2014 at 2:00 pm
Well you do live in the Great White North. Everything costs more to ship there…as would be the same if us Americans ordered something from Canada.
Scott

Disagree. I have had stuff bigger shipped from Texas to Toronto for less. If a ball marker and divot tool, costs more than $7 I’d be surprised. Anyway no biggie, just seems high.
