In the GolfWRX forums: A long-time Titleist driver player starts shopping after 15 years

In our forums, GolfWRX members are helping a player work through one of the best kinds of equipment problems: What to try when a driver that has worked for 15 years finally needs competition.

Member @tsecor started the thread by saying he has played a Titleist 910D since around 2010 and is beginning to look at newer options. He is unsure whether moving from a 440cc head to a more modern 460cc profile will fit his eye, and he also wondered how much a fitting would matter given his current carry and total-distance window.

The replies stayed practical and very WRX.

@stryper recommended a Titleist fitting with a Titleist fitter and said the 20cc head-size difference likely would not be a major issue.
@Dave33 said that with the right shaft, most modern heads can work, then pointed to PXG and Cobra options as examples worth testing.
@dubbelbogey pushed back on worrying too much about 440cc versus 460cc, noting that head shape can make some larger heads look smaller than older models.
@stratgolf kept the advice simple: go hit several brands and let the results decide.
@tsecor’s original question is the reason the thread works. It is not just a driver-shopping thread. It is a reminder that even a loyal player has to relearn the category after 15 years of technology changes.

In the GolfWRX forums: A Titleist T150 fitting changes one skeptic’s mind

In our forums, a GolfWRX member who had been skeptical of fittings came away with a different view after a Titleist T150 iron fitting.

Member @Babydaddy said he is 54, plays to a 4.5 handicap and had been gaming Titleist T200 irons with Dynamic Gold S300 shafts. After a swing-change process, he went to Golf Plus in Panama City Beach and worked through an iron fitting on a Foresight GCQuad.

The result was a move into Titleist T150 irons with True Temper Dynamic Gold 115 Mid stiff shafts. He also tested a driver-shaft setup for his current TSR2 and left the fitting feeling that the process was worth it.

@Babydaddy said the T150s felt forgiving and that the DG 115 Mid shaft outperformed the KBS Tour Lite stiff option for him.
@Tygersman1 reinforced the value of shaft fitting, saying that getting fit for shafts made a meaningful difference in his own experience.
@phizzy30 made the point that the quality of the fitter matters, which is often the separator between a generic fitting and a useful one.

The broader WRX lesson is simple: a fitting does not have to be about chasing a miracle. Sometimes it just confirms the head, shaft and launch window that give a player better answers.

In the GolfWRX forums: Do golfers really need a glove?

In our forums, GolfWRX members are debating one of the game’s small-but-personal equipment habits: whether a golf glove is really necessary.

Member @tatertot said he has played golf for about 50 years and never fully understood the glove thing. He last tried one more than 25 years ago and asked why the left hand needs a glove when modern rubber grips already provide traction.

As expected, WRXers had plenty of opinions, and most came down to feel, sweat, friction and confidence.

@dmeeksDC made the quick Tour tie-in by pointing out that Lucas Glover also plays without a glove.
@Mikey_HACKilroy said sweat and grip security make a glove necessary for him.
@otto6457 pointed to the wear-and-tear side, saying enough range balls without a glove can be rough on the hands.
@Drivingrangehero helped frame the humidity side of the discussion, especially for players dealing with hot, sticky conditions.
@tatertot’s question hit because glove use is one of those habits golfers either never question or never fully adopt.
