Nothing against her, but that type of content is not what I come to golfwrx for. Leave that content to instagram, snapchat, and the kids. Proper golfers started golfwrx to get away from this, now it is slowly being hijacked by wannabe celebs that seem to think this outlet will give them their big break. Tursky and Knudsen – great genuine guys who have golf in their blood and ask those questions that proper golfers can relate to. Johnny Wunder is the same now he is more confident on his podcasts and has a much better delivery now and great topics.

And yes, I can look away, and no I am not a hater of this content, I just don’t want to see golfwrx start to go all celeb/reality on us with no substance or message, so would rather not see this trend start.

HAHAHA hey to all the people being jerks: if you don’t like it, don’t watch it! You don’t HAVE to be a douche all the time, ya know? Great work Ms. Rose, keep it up!!!

BTW, I think the name for Phil’s rock band would be Pheeling Phrisky.

“Phil’s next” = Who’s Next Have him zipping his fly with a wet wall in the background very visible to see. Bones could be in the shot too, maybe still at the wall wetting it.

  Once the running dogs of capitalism get ahold of anything good it’s gone with the wind. Just look below with the “we recommend”. Goodbye golfwrx.

AVL: My U.S. Amateur local qualifying experience

Published

Andrew Von Lossow

This past Monday, I played in the U.S. Amateur local qualifier at Rock Creek Country Club in Portland, Oregon. A full tee sheet from 7:30 a.m. to 1:55 p.m., the top 11 scores would make it to the U.S. Amateur final qualifying.

I teed off at 10:48 a.m.. With the 7:30 am tee time, you can get a feel for the leaders’ pace, and they were off and running on the challenging setup at Rock Creek.

Getting to the highlight of the round on the par five 17th, a drive up the left side and 212 yards left to the front hole location. I took out a 5-iron with plans of middle of the green. The ball ended up 8 feet left of the hole, pin high. A slight downhill putt dropped in for an eagle 3 on the 17th. With the cut line looking to be anywhere from -2 to even par. This was the boost I had been waiting for all day.

With making par from the trees on 18, it was time to wait for a potential playoff with a posted score of one under par 71.

Three hours later, it was playoff time. 8 players for 6 spots. I made par on the playoff hole, which was good enough to advance to the U.S. Amateur final qualifying in July. USGA qualifiers sure deliver on all of the emotions in golf!

Brian Knudson

On this episode of Club Junkie, I put the new Tour Edge Exotics Mini Driver to the test and break down the performance, forgiveness, distance, and where it fits compared to a traditional driver or strong fairway wood. If you have been curious about adding a mini driver to the bag, this one is worth a look.

I also dive into the new TaylorMade Spider ZT Max putter that was recently spotted and discuss the growing zero torque putter trend. Plus, there is a closer look at the new Project X Titan Yellow shaft showing up on the PGA Tour and what makes it different from other profiles currently out there.
