A reminder from your friends at GolfWRX: Father’s Day is June 21. And as we do every year, we’re rounding up the best gifts for dad.

As we say every year, there’s no better golf-related Father’s Day gift than a round of golf with pops. Be it a country club or your favorite muni, take the time to get together to play 18 if you can.

Let’s get to the gifts.

Ghost Golf Qualifier Diamond Polo

We like the new polos that Ghost is offering, as the fabric and fit are so good. These new Qualifier Collection polos breathe well, are lightweight, stretch with your swing, and of course look great. You can wear them on the course, in the office, or just out at a casual event and they will fit right in.

Buy here.

STR8-Strip Grip Tape Remover

If your dad is an equipment aficionado and tinkers with his clubs, this tool works wonders. Removing grip tape has never been easier, just put a little head on the tape and the STR8-Strip peals it right off the shaft without any damage.

Why Golf: Putting Thing

When it comes to practice, it is good to have a purpose. This “Putting Thing” sure does it. We know from personal experience how challenging it can be and how rewarding it is on the practice green. This also provides some competition for your kiddo to see who will unload the dishwasher or do the next chore around the house.

OluKai Lae‘ahi Men’s Breathable Slip-On Shoes

Riding to and from the course in style and comfort is always a good thing. If you’re in a hurry, it’s a nice feature to slide into your shoes and get to the tee time. For the post-game shoe, at your locker or while putting your clubs away in the car. Nice to slide into a shoe that looks good anywhere. Pair that with meeting the family for dinner, no need to change!

Therabody Theragun Relief

A little wellness goes a long way. Keeping loose is a good way to go when it comes to the weekend game or treatment during the week. If there is a little ache or pain, the Theragun is there to help out. Help loosen up the back for a pre-game warm-up or cool-down.

Justin Rose’s return to an Axis1 putter has WRXers watching closely

In our forums, GolfWRX members are discussing Justin Rose’s move back into an Axis1 putter, with the conversation centering on the equipment change, the early putting numbers and the familiar WRX debate over whether a premium putter can be worth the price.

Member @Barracuda started the thread after seeing that Rose had moved into the new Axis1 model. The discussion did include some sticker-shock talk, but the more useful part of the thread was the positive equipment conversation around face stability, fit and whether a putter that works should ever leave the bag.

A few GolfWRXers weighed in:

@pga43 (our tour photographer) posted the first-round putting numbers, noting +2.372 strokes gained putting and 118 feet of putts made.
@hammergolf said he honestly did not know why Rose ever took the Axis1 out of the bag and later made the point that players will spend heavily on a driver but hesitate to spend on a putter and fitting that could have a bigger scoring impact.
@dmeeksDC said Axis1 putters can offer unreal face stability for players who push or pull putts and liked the look of the newer, more compact model.
@Barracuda called Axis1 putters the real deal, while still noting that the price is high.

Player’s Eye: A look at some of Rickie Fowler’s preferred putters

A putter is often the quickest and easiest club to change in a golfer’s bag. As the most frequently used club during a round, it needs to be the perfect fit for each player. Every golfer has a particular look or feel they gravitate toward—sometimes favoring a specific shape, other times drawn to a distinct theme. These preferences are ingrained in a player’s golf DNA, shaping what appeals to their eye.

This week at the John Deere Classic, Rickie Fowler was spotted testing a new hand-crafted Scotty Cameron prototype putter. According to Scotty Cameron Tour Representative Brad Cloke, this putter was designed to help Rickie transition toward a blade-style putter, specifically inspired by the iconic Bullseye shape. The design gives a modern twist to the classic Bullseye, and while it’s primarily intended as a practice club, there’s potential for Rickie to put it in play in the future.

The center-shafted prototype got me reflecting on Rickie’s putter history. Over the years—from his use of the Jailbird and Newport models back to 2014—Rickie has predominantly favored center-shafted putters. Going even further back, he used the Scotty Cameron Circa 62 No. 3 during the 2007 Walker Cup. Here’s a look back at some of Rickie’s putters over the years.
